University of Chicago scientists have discovered how to make magnetic sensors capable of operating at the high temperatures that ceramic engines in cars and aircraft of the future will require for ...

Because optical encoders are functionally similar, “resolution” is often used as a main characteristic for magnetic encoders, a device providing the angle of a magnet attached to a mechanical shaft ...

The types of magnetic sensors that are currently available. How the magnetic sensors work. Applications for the different magnetic sensors. Position sensors enable a variety of functions and controls ...

Because it requires no battery that must be recharged or replaced, and because it requires no special wiring, such a sensor could be embedded in a hard-to-reach place, like inside the inner workings ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In the seemingly endless quest for higher motor performance and improved system cost efficiencies, motor manufacturers ...

Researchers have developed a light-based technique for measuring very weak magnetic fields, such as those produced when neurons fire in the brain. Researchers have developed a light-based technique ...

When operating industrial machinery, precision and accuracy are vital to a productive and safe working environment. Commonly, joysticks are used to aid in the maneuvering of heavy equipment for a ...
