Researchers from the IISc Bangalore developed highly sensitive strain sensors using thin resonating structures made of graphene. A strain sensor or strain gauge is a device used to measure strain (deformation) on...

While hypothesis testing is the key to generate new and relevant data, experimentation culture and discipline are essential to see that through its full lifecycle. Experimentation culture is difficult to build....

When scarcity of lithium required for lithium-ion batteries is affecting large-scale production of these batteries, the emergence of alternatives such as sodium-ion batteries is gaining importance. But will these be able...

JLSR Wellness, a startup in the healthcare and wellness space, has launched a first-of-its-kind Wi-Fi enabled smart oxygen generator with an aim to bring a practical solution to the nation’s dire...

Solar panels are known to sustain themselves for a long time without requiring much maintenance and effort. However, this is only applicable to areas receiving adequate rainfall throughout the year. Due...

We have intelligent devices like smartphones, smart TVs, computers, and robots in use that need not be touched for operation. In fact, many more things need to be operated without touching...

The scarcity of clean water and its access is affecting the entire human population, be it directly or indirectly. Along with natural causes like droughts, reasons like the rising population and...

The implementation of AI coupled with hi-tech sensors offers massive potential for drones to become autonomous in the near future. Besides their implementation, the equipment and software that go into the...

When a major machinery breaks down because of electrical issues or component failure, you lose money every hour! This requires scalable, sustainable, and cost-effective monitoring to maximise runtime productivity and reduce...

Only twenty per cent of the water supplied in urban areas is used for drinking and cooking, the rest is used for bathing, washing, toilets, sinks, etc. Seventy to eighty percent...
