Caltech engineering students have contributed to the development of tiny biosensors that might one day eliminate the need for manual blood sugar tests.
Specifying a pressure sensor can be a challenge, but that challenge could be made simpler if all manufacturers measured the accuracy, effectiveness and error percentages in the same way, says Jochen Schiffner.
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) has developed a system to provide accurate characterisation of high-speed pressure sensors.
Instrumentation to monitor the displacement on the joints within a major new tunnel is enabled with Mantracourt's SGA load cell amplifiers.
Chris Jones discusses some of the more challenging automotive applications for non-contact displacement measurement and infrared temperature sensors.
