Deployable structures are often used in satellites. The CubeSat being designed by Western Aerospace Launch Initiative will have a fiberglass-type boom paired with a sensor, which requires auxiliary ...

The sensor hangs down just far enough to watch a reflector on one of the flats of the collet nut; we’d worry about the reflector surviving tool changes, but it’s just a piece of shiny tape ...

U.S. soldiers prepare for a night mission during operational testing of two new GPS navigation systems. (Nicholas Robertson/Army) The Army’s annual exercise focused on refining its Positioning ...

Sensors are devices that detect and quantify physical aspects of the world around us. The measurement can either be read directly or converted to a signal for processing by electrical, hydraulic ...

It is promising but elusive to use covalent organic frameworks (COFs)-based chromatic sensors for chemical tomography – or the 3D spatial mapping of chemical details within living systems.

Both sensors measure rate of change; they just measure the rate of change for different things. In practice, that means that an accelerometer will measure the directional movement of a device but ...
