Bio-inspired wind sensing using strain sensors on flexible wings could revolutionize robotic flight control strategy. Researchers have developed a method to detect wind direction with 99% accuracy ...

Purdue University researchers have developed a patent-pending method to add particles to filament and disperse them evenly through a traditional fused deposition modeling, or FDM, 3D printer, which ...

Resistive strain sensors hold significant potential in wearable sensing devices due to their lightweight nature, simple structure, and rapid response. Two-dimensional (2D) materials, particularly ...

Many conventional strain gages are similar in appearance to Figure 1. A serpentine pattern etched into a metal foil creates a relatively high resistance in a small space. The foil is bonded to a thin ...

Researchers have used a specialized form of additive manufacturing to create MEMS sensors that can be fabricated as custom, single-quantity units. Why custom-made sensors using additive manufacturing ...

Out of curiosity, I bought a strain gauge sensor module after it appeared on sale. This write-up is fuzzy, since I decided to write based on a quick inspection of it. Have fun reading my little post ...
