Most often ultrasonic transducers are used for distance measurements, and in the DIY world, usually as a way for robots to detect obstacles. But for a weekend project, [Vinod.S] took the ultrasonic ...

Piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers play a critical role in modern sensing and actuation by converting electrical signals into high‐frequency mechanical vibrations and vice versa. Recent advances ...

Every heartbeat pushes pressure through your arteries, and that pressure shifts from moment to moment. Yet most people still measure it with a cuff that squeezes the arm, then stops.

Throughout the surgical process, the surgeon must have access to a real-time assessment of blood vessels to make evaluations relative to the flow of blood. Piezo transducers are at the heart of ...

The 'ultrasound-photoacoustic dual-modal imaging system' combines molecular imaging contrast with ultrasound imaging, and it can visualize molecular and structural information inside the body in real ...

Before humans discovered ultrasound for a variety of medical, technical and military applications, nature had perfected it over millions of years for navigation under and above water. Dolphins and ...

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) has developed an ultrasonic sensor technology that applies a ...

Quadcopter type drones can be flown indoors, but unless you have a lot of space, it usually just ends in a crash. The prospect of being hit in the face by the propellor blades, spinning at 10k RPM ...

Infineon Technologies AG has claimed the first integrated one-chip solution for a MEMS-based ultrasonic transducer in a smaller footprint with improved performance and higher functionality. The MEMS ...

Auburn, MA – PI, a global leader in piezoelectric materials, piezo actuators and transducers, extends its selection of high quality piezoceramic elements. Available in various sizes and geometries, ...

A team develops an ultrasensitive broadband transparent ultrasound transducer. The 'ultrasound-photoacoustic dual-modal imaging system' combines molecular imaging contrast with ultrasound imaging, and ...

I needed a simple mist maker/humidifier for a project that I was working on. I found lots of ideas on the internet, but they all lacked in one area or another, so I decided to design one. The ...
