You’ll never know how accurate your smart home sensors are unless you test them. Even buying six of the same sensor could yield six slightly different results, a ...

A research team led by Prof. MENG Gang, from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) used polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) in the research of high-performance ...

Hygrometers are practical gadgets for the home that can indirectly prevent mold growth. They provide an instant reading of humidity levels and indicate when it’s time to ventilate. A recent test ...

As discussed in the first part of the article, the accuracy with which sensor capacitance can be measured using absolute capacitance measurement has a significant dependency on the accuracy of the ...

If you want to add humidity and temperature sensors to your home automation sensor, you can — like [Maker’s Fun Duck] did — buy some generic ones for about a buck. For a dollar, you get a little ...

The device is built using 1D supramolecular nanofibers, synthesized from charge-transfer complexes of donor and acceptor ...
