Most light-field sensors — devices that detect the angles of incoming light rays to reconstruct 3D scenes — can detect light only in the ultraviolet and visible wavelength ranges. A newly developed ...

In a step toward more autonomous soft robots and wearable technologies, researchers have created a device that uses color to simultaneously sense multiple mechanical and temperature stimuli. Robotics ...

The VEML6040 is an RGBW color sensor featuring Filtron™ technology that provides a spectrum that matches the real human eye responses. It supports low transmittance lens design, with fluorescent light ...

Both image photodetector arrays and retinas are pixelated sensors that dynamically extract various features from the visual scene—e.g., color, brightness, and contrast—before transmitting electrical ...

Accurate colour reproduction is one of the most technically demanding challenges in industrial imaging. Unlike monochrome applications, colour imaging requires the entire imaging chain, from lighting ...

A team of researchers have developed an innovative image sensor that integrates liquid biological environments with organic electronics ...

Soft robotic devices often need to sense both mechanical deformation and changes in temperature, requiring multiple integrated sensors. ChromoSense technology, however, combines both functions in one ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Light sensors detect the presence or absence of light, and the intensity of that light. These sensors then convert light energy into an electrical ...
