For parts, I needed three things: a sound sensor, a computer brain to run it and a place to store the data. The best-known tool of the open hardware movement is the Arduino, which costs about $30 ...

Apple is exploring the possibility of adding an ambient sound sensor to the iPhone that would allow the handset to adjust its ringtone volume to its surrounding audio environment, which would ...

Using computer modeling and algorithms, the researchers designed their sensor’s structure using a lattice of identical silicon plates (resonators) connected by tiny bars that act like springs.

Researchers at Duke University have developed a prototype sensor that’s not only able to figure out the direction of a particular sound, but can also extract it from background noise. The disk ...

For example, the sensor can measure intensive body movements and wirelessly send information directly to a computer. The findings are now being presented in the journal Advanced Functional Materials.

To capture an instant on film or sensor with a camera, you usually need a fast shutter. But alternately a flash can be triggered with the scene in the dark and the shutter wide open. It’s thi… ...
