CU Boulder researchers have built high-performing optical microresonators, opening the door for new sensor technologies. At its simplest form, a microresonator is a tiny device that can trap light and ...

Shine a flashlight into a murky pond water and the beam won't penetrate very far. Absorption and scattering rapidly diminishes the intensity of the light beam, which loses a fixed percentage of energy ...

With the TSL2550 sensor, the intensity of ambient light can be converted to digital signals that, in turn, can be used to control the backlighting of display screens found in portable equipment, such ...

Light sensors often use an infrared LED as a light source. Infrared LEDs have a greater intensity than LEDs that emit visible light. And when infrared photodiodes are used the sensors are relatively ...

Mechanical engineering researchers at the University of Texas (Austin, TX) and Gillette (Boston, MA) have developed a silicon-diode sensor to measure six-degree-of-freedom position-independent light ...

Researchers at Tor Vergata University of Rome have developed a biohybrid image sensor that mimics how the animal retina ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Technology Landscape, Trends and Opportunities in the Global Pressure Sensor Market" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. This report analyzes ...

Sensor solutions company ams recently introduced a series of new sensors designed to optimize brightness for smart home devices. The devices debuted at the Sensors Expo in San Jose, California, at the ...

Targeting edge-to-edge smartphone displays, the TSL2520 and TSL2521 ambient light sensors from ams fit in a tiny bezel or gap between the display screen and the chassis of the smartphone to enable the ...
