Twisted graphene heterostructures detect temperature with 99% accuracy, reduce thermal image errors by 46%, and execute logic ...

Anatomically, the human eye is like a sophisticated tentacle that reaches out from the brain, with the retina acting as the tentacle’s tip and touching everything the person sees. Evolution worked a ...

Engineers unlock the power of exceptional points (EPs) for advanced optical sensing. EPs -- specific conditions in systems where extraordinary optical phenomena can occur -- can be deployed on ...

Researchers have developed a sensor array design technology inspired by the human auditory system. By mimicking the human ear's ability to distinguish sounds through tonotopy, this innovative sensor ...

A new bio-inspired sensor can recognise moving objects in a single frame from a video and successfully predict where they will move to. This smart sensor, described in a Nature Communications paper, ...

Melexis has introduced a new algorithm for people detection, counting and localisation, tailored for its MLX90642 far-infrared (FIR) 32x24 thermal array. This solution is a more privacy-preserving ...

Detecting wavelengths beyond visible light—for instance, infrared light—offers clear advantages. Case in point is cameras in autonomous vehicles that ‘see’ through smoke or fog and cameras that unlock ...
