Soft sensor modelling has emerged as an indispensable tool for industrial process monitoring and control, particularly in environments where direct measurement of key variables is impractical or ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – A new type of soft and stretchable sensor could find uses in applications ranging from athletics and health monitoring to prosthetics and virtual reality. The technology, called ...

Cornell researchers have created a fiber-optic sensor utilizing inexpensive LEDs and dyes that resulted in a stretchable skin-like material able to detect deformations, including pressure, bending, ...

Real-time, in-process monitoring and control is a foundational enabler of Biopharma 4.0. Despite the (apparent) stakeholder buy-in, however, progress in achieving this basic capability has been slow.

Researchers at Purdue University have developed a soft sensor toolkit that could pave the way for more tactile wearables. Tragically dubbed "iSoft," the thin, rubbery device reacts to continuous ...

Soft sensors, also known as virtual sensors, are software that can process hundreds of measurements in combination. Plant managers who want to add soft sensors may be overwhelmed by the scope of ...

(Nanowerk News) Most people think of coffee cups, bathroom tiles or flower pots when they hear the word "ceramic". Not so Frank Clemens. For the research group leader in Empa's Laboratory for ...

When a baby is born premature, it's not uncommon for them to subsequently develop neuromotor and cognitive disabilities. A new Harvard-designed sensor, however, could help doctors catch such problems ...

A new type of soft and stretchable sensor could find uses in applications ranging from athletics and health monitoring to prosthetics and virtual reality. A new type of soft and stretchable sensor ...
