Smart sensor nodes are the “canaries in a coal mine” for the industrial IoT, sensitively monitoring industrial equipment for vibrations, electrical current and voltage changes, temperature, sound, and ...

A new device that can detect ultra-low concentrations of gases like nitrogen dioxide accurately and nearly instantaneously has been developed by a team of researchers. Nitrogen dioxide, a pollutant ...

Banner Engineering introduces its wireless vibration and temperature sensor. Designed to effectively monitor machines for increases in vibration and temperature, the sensor measures RMS velocity in ...

This module features a vibration sensor, an adjustable trimpot, and a comparator chip to give an adjustable digital output based on the amount of vibration. The multiturn trimpot can be adjusted to ...

What is predictive maintenance (PdM)? It’s the application of instrumentation and intelligence to help determine the condition of equipment and whether maintenance should be performed to avoid ...

Enough landmines are buried underground worldwide to circle Earth twice at the equator, but the identification and removal of these explosives is costly and time-consuming. Vyacheslav Aranchuk, ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. One of the cool things about modern technological development is that new devices give us greater control and connectivity than we previously ...

How do piezoelectric accelerometers — vibration sensors — work? The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the sensor's mass to “squeeze” contained piezoelectric ...

TDK Corporation has expanded its high-performance MEMS inertial sensors portfolio with Tronics AXO315 T1, a high-temperature MEMS accelerometer with ±14 g input range and a digital interface for ...

The Department of Mechanical Engineering of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) has developed a novel bio-inspired nonlinear anti-vibration system that can significantly reduce vibration in ...
