What advanced sensing techniques are used to find lost treasures? Part 4: Resistivity measurements
This series has previously addressed magnetometry, electromagnetic induction and ground penetrating radar. Another sensing technique frequently used by archeologists and treasure hunters to find objects involves resistivity measurements. Unlike other sensing techniques, resistance measurements involve inserting metal probes into the ground rather than non-invasive surface measurements. Since electrical currents are conducted through the soil by […]
ABB Jokab Safety Eden sensors feature RFID for greater security and vibration resistance
ABB Jokab Safety Eden sensors, including the Dyanmic and new OSSD models, now feature a solid-state, board-level design with radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology for increased resistance to vibration and greater security. Last year, ABB Jokab Safety introduced the Eden OSSD safety sensor for a line of safety sensors that also includes the well-established Eden Dynamic […]
