Laser Proximity Sensors use laser beams to detect the presence or absence of objects within a certain range. They are used in security systems, robotics, automation, and industrial processes, where ...

The optoNCDT 5500 laser triangulation sensor has been specifically expanded: Increased performance, a speed boost of 150 kHz ...

Measuring tiny magnetic fields, such as those generated by brain waves, enables many new novel opportunities for medical diagnostics and treatment. The research team led by Dr. Jan Jeske at Fraunhofer ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The burgeoning demands for health care and human-machine interfaces call for the next generation of multifunctional and flexible integrated sensor systems. Principally, flexible ...

Despite their prevalent use in patient treatment, to many, using lasers as surgical tools can seem like something out of science fiction. However, laser-assisted surgery is now a reality and marks a ...

LSG is produced by laser irradiation of carbon precursors like graphene oxide or polyimide films. This direct writing approach enables rapid, localized graphene patterning without masks or chemicals.

Researchers in Hong Kong have developed a 3D micro-printed sensor for highly sensitive on-chip biosensing. The sensor, which is based on a polymer whispering-gallery-mode microlaser, opens new ...

A project at Brazil's Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar) has manufactured sensors for potential use in medical and industrial applications by laser writing onto fallen leaves. Published in ACS ...
