Boréas Technologies has unveiled its NexusTouch sensing technology, which will give touch feedback in a new generation of smartphones (including those geared to gaming). The Bromont, Quebec-based ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Force sensors weigh freight on manufacturing and transportation equipment. They also monitor loads on machines subject to stringent ...

While engineers have long optimised electronics for performance, efficiency and form factor, a shift is now underway ...

Melexis unveiled its Tactaxis prototype, a magnetometer with an elastomer and a magnet embedded inside that measures force in three directions. Melexis' Tactaxis integrated tactile sensor is a compact ...

(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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.
