The double-slit experiment is one of the most famous experiments in physics and definitely one of the weirdest. It demonstrates that matter and energy (such as light) can exhibit both wave and ...

Using a specialized MRI sensor, MIT researchers have shown that they can detect light deep within tissues such as the brain. Imaging light in deep tissues is extremely difficult because as light ...

Recently, [Solder Hub] put together a brief video that demonstrates the basics of a Hall Effect sensor — in this case, one ...

An overwhelming majority of handheld devices these days have ambient light sensors built into them. A large percentage of TVs and monitors do, too, and that proportion is growing. The sensors allow ...

Researchers have revealed a previously unknown way plants shape their growth in response to light—a breakthrough that could ...

Vishay has released a digital ambient light sensor in a 4.38 x 1.45 x 0.6mm package, with AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use. VEML4031X00, as it will be known, has a visible light spectral ...
