An Improved Wearable, Stretchable Gas Sensor Using Nanocomposites
A stretchable, wearable gas sensor for environmental sensing has been developed and tested by researchers at Penn State, Northeastern University and five universities in China.
To Make A Better Sensor, Just Add Noise
In a sensing phenomenon common in the animal world but unusual in manmade sensors, Penn State researchers have added a small amount of background noise to enhance very weak signals, in this case a light source too dim to sense.
Self-Powered Biosensors May Open Up New Paths To Medical Tracking, Treatments
Wearable and implantable devices are currently used for a variety of functions, including health tracking and monitoring.
A Multishot Lensless Camera Could Aid Disease Diagnosis
A new type of imaging that does not require a lens and uses reconfigurable particle-based masks to take multiple shots of an object is being developed by researchers at Penn State.
