A research group from the Graduate School of Engineering at Tohoku University has developed a noninvasive means of detecting ...

Today's computers store information in magnetic hard drives, keeping files safe even when the device is powered off. But to ...

We’re probably all familiar with the Hall Effect, at least to the extent that it can be used to make solid-state sensors for magnetic fields. It’s a cool bit of applied physics, but there are other ...

Researchers have developed a light-based technique for measuring very weak magnetic fields, such as those produced when neurons fire in the brain. Researchers have developed a light-based technique ...

What the magnetoelastic effect is and how it can be used. How an innovative design and fabrication technique led to a flexible magnetoelastic device. How this unique device can be used for both energy ...

Tiny deviations: the new metal detector looks for minute disturbances in Earth’s magnetic field. (Courtesy: iStock/muffinmaker) A compact, low-cost and low-power metal detector that can identify the ...

Rotary encoders convert rotary movement or angular position into analogue or digital signals for use in measurement or control systems. They can be classified in a number of ways, primarily by the ...

Using a specialized MRI sensor, MIT researchers have shown that they can detect light deep within tissues such as the brain. Imaging light in deep tissues is extremely difficult because as light ...

GLASGOW, Scotland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Neuranics, a Glasgow-based innovator in ultra-sensitive magnetic sensing solutions, has been shortlisted as one of six projects to be supported through the £160 ...
