CU Boulder researchers have built high-performing optical microresonators, opening the door for new sensor technologies. At ...

Nuclear magnetic resonance –based co-magnetometers are essential tools for applications ranging from inertial navigation to ...

Scientists have discovered the function of a third type of light sensor in the eye -- not vision, but control of the body’s internal clock -- opening a new pathway for potential treatments of ...

Light sensors often use an infrared LED as a light source. Infrared LEDs have a greater intensity than LEDs that emit visible light. And when infrared photodiodes are used the sensors are relatively ...

Sensor manufacturer Ams launched this week a new in-display ambient light and proximity sensor solution for smartphones equipped with OLED displays which essentially makes those modules invisible.

Ambient light sensors (ALSs) are photodetectors that approximate the human eye’s response to light intensity under a variety of lighting conditions and through different attenuation materials. They’re ...

Targeting edge-to-edge smartphone displays, the TSL2520 and TSL2521 ambient light sensors from ams fit in a tiny bezel or gap between the display screen and the chassis of the smartphone to enable the ...
