Window sensors are a critical part of any home security system. Learn how they work so you can ensure this last line of defense is there when you need it.

Tire pressure sensors are a key part of ensuring drivers stay informed about the condition of this crucial piece of automotive equipment.

How Do Oxygen Sensors Work? Oxygen sensors are a key part of the vehicle emissions system. They measure the differential oxygen levels between the outside air and the exhaust gas to generate a voltage ...

But how do they actually work? At the most basic level, every robot operates through a combination of four core components: sensors, controllers, actuators, and software.

Motion sensors work similarly, only with heat. Most motion sensors rely on a pyroelectric material that activates when it detects a change in temperature. The sensor is separated into two parts.

Automakers build these sensors with a long lifecycle, the only reason you’d need to test or change the transmission speed sensor would be because it began to malfunction again.

Pressure sensors are crucial in many emerging applications, but traditional designs are often bulky or inflexible. In a recent study, researchers from Japan developed a fiber-shaped pressure sensor ...

It's found its way onto aircrafts, spaceships, and might even be in your pocket right now. So, what is LiDAR, how does it work, and what new knowledge and capabilities has it given us?

There’s a drivetrain on it! We go over the battery, sensors, and other components that make your electric bicycle go.

Synopsis: This unit, focusing on MS-ESS3-3, introduces students to programmable sensor technologies as a tool to investigate, monitor, and communicate classroom environmental data (e.g. temperature, ...

The fingerprint sensor on the Pixel 6 is slow. Here's why is' so sluggish and what you can do to make it faster.
