Changing, integrating or upgrading sensors on a military aircraft can be an expensive, time-consuming and complex endeavor. Northrop Grumman Corporation’s (NYSE:NOC) new OpenPod(TM) sensor system, ...

(A) The structure of a CNT. (B) A typical structure of 2D materials. (C) The unique structure of a silicon nanoladder. Due to limitations in the performance of traditional materials, force sensors ...

Evaluating tribological properties such as friction coefficients, friction forces, and torques for arbitrary material pairs, with high precision is crucial for multiple areas of research and industry.

For example, a 2-kN force properly applied to a cubic-centimetersized quartz crystal produces over 12.5 kV. Voltage created by an applied stress is called piezoelectricity. Unlike strain gages that ...

MCS10-002-6C can capture up to three forces (tension and compression) and three moments (clockwise and anti-clockwise) in different combinations, “with accuracy class up to 0.1, making it ideal for ...

Researchers have developed a tiny fiber optic force sensor that can measure extremely slight forces exerted by small objects. The new light-based sensor overcomes the limitations of force sensors ...

As electronics replace legacy hydraulic components in brake-by-wire systems, different sensing technologies are needed for brake pedal sensing. Sensata’s Brake Pedal Force sensor for electromechanical ...

How to create an application-optimized thin force sensor. How the sensor was integrated with a standard RFID IC. The various tests run for accuracy and range under different scenarios. Some ...
