Excessive heat can destroy computer components, which means that keeping your system cool can extend its life. While the computer probably already monitors the temperature of the CPU, case heat can ...

Founded in 2018, OroraTech began launching its sensors in 2022 on third party satellites and, in 2025, deployed its first ...

Sometimes a device doesn’t do quite what one needs, and in those cases a bit of tampering might do the trick. That’s what led to being able to record video from a HTI HT-A1 thermal imager despite the ...

The D6T non-contact MEMS thermal sensor from Omron can reliably detect the presence of humans in an area, even if they aren’t moving (see the figure). This type of thermal sensor is an alternative to ...

Vantrue Pilot 2 dash cam combines thermal imaging with 4K recording to detect pedestrians and wildlife 200 feet away in fog ...

Excess heat from electronic or mechanical devices is a sign or cause of inefficient performance. In many cases, embedded sensors to monitor the flow of heat could help engineers alter device behavior ...

The Pixel 8 Pro’s temperature sensor is only able to measure object temperatures now. Google says it’s working on getting it approved for human temperature sensing, but there’s no timeline for that.

Effective thermal management is crucial to prevent overheating and optimize performance in modern SoCs. Inadequate temperature control due to inaccurate thermal sensing compromises power management, ...

Analogue sensors still have a place. PWM outputs give ground to serial-digital formats. A new bus architecture complements SMBus. Of all the physical measurements that electronic systems make, ...

The Google Pixel smartphone series is no stranger to odd software and hardware additions. The double-sized notch and the short-lived Soli sensor stand out as some of Google’s more out-there ...
