... a loop of rope around two pulleys -- to measure the animals' efforts. As the animals moved at their highest sustainable speed, sensors measured oxygen level changes within ...
... . The researchers have arranged several sensors in a pixel cell in such a way that they can measure all three components of the magnetic ... . If two of these pixel cells are placed on a chip, the sensor measures not only the magnetic field as such, but also how the position of the magnetic ...
... physiology and developed a low-cost optical sensor to measure the force with which tiny, migrating somatic ... . The sensor consists of a smooth surface that is studded with 250,000 tiny plastic columns measuring ...
... , has developed models that use data from real-time sensor measurements to calculate and continuously revise the amount ... and respond" logistics paradigm. "Recent advances in sensor technology and wireless communication have enabled us ...
... team modified crash test dummies with sensors that could measure the pressure of a blast at various locations ... . Part of what they found in the experiments was surprising, says Mott. The sensors measured variable pressures in the large explosions ...
... of millimeters per year. POLENET's GPS sensors measure how much the crust is rising or falling, while the seismic sensors measure the stiffness of the bedrock -- a key factor for predicting how much the bedrock ...
... atoms and molecules, from the wastes. The "filtering flux sensor" measures ammonia and nitrite to reveal the ion ... 't new, but the technique for using it is," McLamore said. "Sensors have never been used this way to measure biofilm ammonia and nitrite ...
... Laboratory (NPL) has developed the first sensor capable of measuring localized ultrasonic cavitation – the implosion ... when a high frequency sound wave is applied. The sensor will help hospitals ensure that their instruments are properly ...
... it stable during a flight, Fiorentini explained. Sensors measure factors such as altitude, velocity, and acceleration, and the controller calculates whether any adjustments need ...
... spacecraft – the formation can effectively act as one large sensor. Measuring absolute distance between the formation spacecraft ... worldwide are developing other systems using such technology as distance measuring instruments. Prototype systems will need to have uncertainty ...
