Ouster has launched the Rev8 set of lidar sensors that function as both a camera and a 3D mapping sensor at the same time.

A team of researchers from Argonne National Laboratory, the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, has devised a pathway for ...

As spring deadlines settle and students like you look to reactivate dormant tinkering skills, the Arduino ecosystem in 2026 offers a streamlined path back to hands-on engineering. The Circuit ...

The sensor continuously sends out infrared light and measures how much of that light is reflected. When a reflective object is within its set detection range, it returns a low signal. The Arduino ...

Editor’s note: In this Design Idea (DI), contributor Bonicatto designs a digital filter system (DFS). This is a benchtop filtering system that can apply various filter types to an incoming signal. The ...

Patients are being warned to stop using some glucose monitors made by Abbott Diabetes Care after the company found malfunctioning sensors may be linked to hundreds of adverse events and several deaths ...

The fuel and spark strategies for a supercharged street car are only as smart as the sensors feeding data to the ECM. Here’s what happens when a blown beast’s MAP sensor can’t keep up, and how to fix ...

This is a maintained version of the original DFRobot_mmWave_Radar library. After more than two years had passed without any commits beyond the initial commit, and issues receiving no attention, I ...

Researchers have developed a system, called ProxiCycle, that logs when a passing car comes too close to a cyclist (four feet or less). A small, inexpensive sensor plugs into bicycle handlebars and ...
