Atomic Lift-Off Breakthrough: Ultralight IR Sensors at Room Temp

A team of scientists from MIT introduced a novel strategy and manufacturing process called atomic lift-off that enables the creation of super-thin, IR-sensitive films. These nano-sized strips open the door for ultra-lightweight night vision and IR sensing technology. Here's what you need to know. How Infrared Sensors Work and Why They Matter Infrared sensors are vital in today's advanced electronics, which are found in use across various fields,…

How Accurate Are Smartwatches? The Truth About Sensors, Performance, and Battery Life

When it comes to smartwatch accuracy, debates rage louder than a gallery at the Masters. From weekend joggers to serious athletes, we all want data we can trust—distance, pace and heart-rate readings that don’t have you thinking your watch’s idea of a “mile” is closer to a furlong. In this article, we’ll dig into the nuts and bolts of sensors, performance and battery life, and why the real win comes from consistent, long-term insights rather tha…
