Procter & Gamble has filed a patent for a pH sensing probe that includes a sensor body, a pH glass electrode, a reference electrode, and a backup pH electrode. The backup electrode can be ...

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has become an increasingly common treatment for patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, but the procedure still carries significant risks. A new probe that performs ...

Recently I became aware that imec, the research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, has designed and fabricated a demonstrator of a neural probe with industry-leading ...

“How does the brain work?” is a question as old as the brain itself. The brain is composed of billions of neurons and quadrillions of connections between them. Somewhere in this vast and complex ...

When you replace an older cell phone or TV with a new high-resolution device, the visuals can be strikingly different – all of a sudden you have improved clarity and can see new details. Now, UC San ...

Japan's Kyoshin Electric (Kopel) has developed a pin-probe bar to manufacture contacting systems for busbar-less solar cells. The FSS4 probing solution is also suitable for multi-busbar, half/triple ...
