Researchers developed a super tiny thermometer that sits directly on a chip could monitor temperature changes and potentially ...

Excessive heat can destroy computer components, which means that keeping your system cool can extend its life. While the computer probably already monitors the temperature of the CPU, case heat can ...

The semiconductor chips driving modern-day computer processors are covered in billions of individual transistors, each of ...

Electrical engineers at Duke University report they have built a record-setting pyroelectric photodetector that uses trapped ...

A team of researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) has invented a novel camouflage technique that effectively hides thermal and electronic sensors without compromising performance.

Teledyne FLIR OEM, part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY), announced today that Sentera Sensors and Drones, a leading provider of advanced sensors and data, has joined the Thermal by ...

The D6T non-contact MEMS thermal sensor from Omron can reliably detect the presence of humans in an area, even if they aren’t moving (see the figure). This type of thermal sensor is an alternative to ...

Excess heat from electronic or mechanical devices is a sign or cause of inefficient performance. In many cases, embedded sensors to monitor the flow of heat could help engineers alter device behavior ...

Sometimes a device doesn’t do quite what one needs, and in those cases a bit of tampering might do the trick. That’s what led to being able to record video from a HTI HT-A1 thermal imager despite the ...

Wearable devices are often exposed to environmental variables that can significantly impact temperature readings. A smartwatch sits on the wrist, where ambient air temperature, sunlight, and even wind ...
