Sensory functionalisation of materials In modern industrial applications, there is a growing need to measure mechanical and dynamic state variables directly in the component or material rather than deriving them using discrete, retrofitted sensors. Traditional sensor concepts often require […]
When GNSS signals are jammed or manipulated, entire systems begin to falter – from navigation to communication to logistics. But what if precise positioning were possible without satellite signals? A new technology approach shows exactly that. Local interference is often […]
Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) are widely used in sensor technology. Based on semiconductor manufacturing processes, they enable the miniaturisation and scaled production of sensors based on various measuring principles and can therefore be used in many applications. A key physical measurement […]
This strategic collaboration will bring H2scan’s industry-leading hydrogen monitoring technology to key European markets, combining expertise from both companies to address the growing demand for hydrogen-based energy solutions. With a shared vision of advancing hydrogen safety and efficiency, Angst+Pfister Sensors […]
Over the past five decades, numerous oxygen sensing technologies have been developed, with solid-state zirconia and electrochemical principles emerging as the most successful among them. The use of ion-exchanging zirconia ceramics to measure oxygen concentrations spanning from ultra-low levels to […]
Murata has done it again with the SCH16T 6DoF sensor – a combined, powerful 3-axis gyro sensor and 3-axis accelerometer. The SCH16T was developed for applications that require optimum stability, reliability and quality, and it offers extraordinarily stable performance in […]
Angst+Pfister AG, of Zürich, Switzerland, a leading developer and manufacturer of technical components for the industrial and medical OEM markets, announces the acquisition of the MEMS pressure sensor die business of Acuity Incorporated, Fremont, California, USA. Acuity Incorporated was founded […]
The operating principle of temperature sensors is based on physical effects changing alongside temperature. For example, resistance thermometers use the fact that the resistance of material changes with temperature. Thermocouples use the Seebeck-effect which generate a voltage when two metals […]
RoodMicrotec N.V., a leading independent company for semiconductor supply and quality services, and Angst+Pfister Sensors and Power AG, an independently operating company of the Angst+Pfister Group, today announce their cooperation for testing semiconductor-based temperature sensors. These highly accurate sensors are […]
