Twist, bend and stretch The new stretchable sensor can detect even minor changes in strain with greater range of motion than previous technologies. The patterned cuts enable large deformation without ...

Resistive strain sensors hold significant potential in wearable sensing devices due to their lightweight nature, simple structure, and rapid response. Two-dimensional (2D) materials, particularly ...

According to the researchers, there's usually a trade-off with such devices, in that their fragility increases along with their sensitivity. This highly-sensitive strain sensor, however, can ...

A research team has developed a new range of strain sensors that are 10 times more sensitive when measuring minute movements. These sensors are ultra-thin, battery-free and can transmit data ...

Many applications use a manufacturing process known as thin-film sputtering deposition. The typical sputtering process uses an ion beam to impact the surface of a sputter material such as gold, silver ...

Out of curiosity, I bought a strain gauge sensor module after it appeared on sale. This write-up is fuzzy, since I decided to write based on a quick inspection of it. Have fun reading my little post ...

Apple is researching strain gage sensors, likely in an effort to improve the Apple Watch's strength training capabilities, according to a recent job listing (via MyHealthyApple). The job listing from ...

A new face-worn strain sensor could help, as it's able to "read" the wearer's silently mouthed words. Developed at China's Tsinghua University, the flexible, stretchable sensor takes the form of a ...
