Materials with unusual properties are a starting point for creating new sensors. A company involved in products with complex material properties and electronics possibly has an edge over its rivals when it comes to discovering or creating new sensing technologies. For example, Continental, a tire maker and automotive electronics supplier recently used electrically conductive rubber […]
Getting More Info from a Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Smart phone makers are experts at getting double duty out of a sensor (an accelerometer for sensing orientation and whether the phone is in use to save energy) but they are not the only ones. Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) could provide additional functionality beyond what they are required to do today. A company that […]
