Bio-inspired wind sensing using strain sensors on flexible wings could revolutionize robotic flight control strategy. Researchers at Institute of Science Tokyo have developed a method to detect wind ...

In a recent article published in Scientific Reports, researchers presented a comprehensive study on the development and performance evaluation of silver-coated laser-induced graphene (LIG) strain ...

(Nanowerk News) Wearable devices and smart sensors are transforming how we monitor health and activity, from tracking heartbeats to detecting body movements. However, traditional tools like ...

The levels of mechanicalstrain most typically measured with strain gauges are very small and precise.Consequently, changes in resistance are also very small and thus cannot bemeasured directly with an ...

The study reveals strain-tunable gas sensing in Ag- and Au-doped SnSe2 monolayers, highlighting their potential for ...

Many conventional strain gages are similar in appearance to Figure 1. A serpentine pattern etched into a metal foil creates a relatively high resistance in a small space. The foil is bonded to a thin ...
