As we move into a world where human-machine interactions are becoming more prominent, pressure sensors that are able to analyze and simulate human touch are likely to grow in demand.

Google is working on a "Human Presence Sensor" for Chromebooks, which could be used for face unlock or other long-awaited Chrome OS features.

The interference study helped them create a sensor that detected dipyridamole spiked into a natural, human sweat sample.

A new sensor that mimics human touch is placed on a man's wrist to test the device's sensitivity. It is no longer science fiction, we really do have the technology to rebuild veterans who have ...

Tamron has announced that it is working alongside the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) to develop an image sensor capable of seeing in starlight.

While PIR sensors can be used with Arduino and other microcontroller boards, those best-suited for hobby use are smart enough to perform simple tasks without any programming.

Still, advanced sensors will help make this a reality, sooner. Whether we're talking human drivers or just pedestrians, self-driving cars will always have to deal with unpredictable human behavior.

Thin films of single-wall carbon nanotube have been used to create stretchable devices that can be incorporated into clothes and used to detect human motions.

Robots do not look human just yet, but soon they may get the "human touch." Researchers say they have developed a flexible sensor able to detect temperature, pressure and humidity simultaneously ...

A control system helps robots quickly adjust to subtle changes in the way their operators move, which could improve safety in manufacturing settings.
