Researchers belonging to Universidad Politécnica de Madrid’s Radar and Microwave Group (GMR) have developed a novel radar network alarm system for construction vehicles. This system would help reduce risk of accidents in locations where constructions take place.
Researchers at EPFL have collaborated with a University of Basel scientist to propose a theoretical system for amplifying signals with very low level of noise. They have suggested optomechanics for amplifying weak signals.
A research team at the St Louis’ Washington University and China’s Tsinghua University has collaborated to develop the Raman microlaser sensor that has the capability to not only detect but also count individual nanoparticles. The sensor can detect nanoparticles that are as small as 10nm.
