Using their Mosquito fabrication method, the researchers created a fan-out pattern of multiple thin light paths inside a thin sheet of PDMS. This created four optical channels that could be used for ...

Apple is working on new fingerprint sensing technology that could work through an iPhone display by taking advantage of off-axis angular light. In a new patent application, Apple hones in on optical ...

Researchers have developed a thin optical touch sensor that can simultaneously detect the strength and location of pressure with high sensitivity and stability. The sensor is based on PDMS and is ...

Patients who remain in bed for long periods of time may develop pressure sores, which can in turn become potentially life-threatening chronic skin ulcers. A new sensor could help keep that from ...

Zac has been writing about Android as a hobby since he was a teenager and fulfilled his ambition of doing so professionally when he joined Android Police as a Reviewer in 2020. Zac specializes in ...

New research has shown how the quantum mechanical principle of strong coupling opens unrivalled possibilities for designing optical filters. A team of researchers from the University of Cologne, ...

A dust sensor is an optical electronic system to detect fine particles such as dust. In principle, an optical dust sensor detects the dust particle concentration the in air by using an optical sensing ...

When you’re designing miniature optical switches, reflective sensors are your best friend. They streamline the interaction between humans and machines in an elegant and intuitive manner. These sensors ...

Apple's ongoing research into embedding sensors into iPhone displays may not just mean the removal of the Face ID notch, but it could bring back Touch ID too. Now a newly-revealed patent suggests that ...
