The innovative wireless strain sensor from KAUST integrates multiple technologies, offering ultra-sensitivity for real-time monitoring in various applications.
Dr. Jae Sung Yoon, Principal Researcher at the Nano-lithography & Manufacturing Research Center within the Nano-convergence Manufacturing Research Division at the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials, affiliated with the Ministry of Science and ICT, and Ph.D. candidate Nguyen Hoang Minh from the UST-KIMM School led a research team that successfully created an advanced film-type strain sensor incorporating nano-fabrication technology, according to a study published in ACS Applied Nano Materials.
Researchers have developed battery-less smart skins utilizing 5G technology and millimeter wave (mmWave) reflect-array-based sensors for self-monitoring megastructures. These sensors offer wide interrogation angles, high sensitivity, and precise strain monitoring in composite materials, revolutionizing structural health monitoring by providing continuous and accurate data without the need for batteries.
At the University of Southern California (USC) Viterbi School of Engineering, scientists looked to origami to develop new sensors that could one day be applied to detect deformations in organs and also for usage in soft robotics and wearables.
A strain-temperature dual-mode sensor has been developed by scientists headed by Professor Runwei Li at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
The Contour2D sensor system enables optimally efficient detection of conveyor belt utilization. It is the only system on the market to require just one LiDAR sensor to do this. The unique performance characteristics of the R2000 LiDAR sensor and an intelligent algorithm ensure reliable shadow correction.
In a joint project between Falken’s parent company Sumitomo Rubber Industries and Professor Hiroshi Tani of Kansai University, Japan, a new sensor to measure tyre wear has been developed which will help engineers to create longer lasting tyres.
In a bid to improve road safety, a new manufacturing research collaboration is developing innovative geotechnical sensors that will monitor the health of Australia’s coastal roadways.
Simultaneously achieving ultra-softness, ultrahigh sensitivity and mechanical resiliency is a major challenge for wearable electronics and soft machines.
The ability to gain control over the structure of fragmented electrodes made of carbon nanotubes could enable enhanced wireless monitoring of the strain on materials in a broad array of applications.
