  • Navigating urban spaces: Indoor and outdoor wayfinding technology for vision-impaired people

    A new report explores how to leverage low-cost methods to enable people with blindness, deaf-blindness, visual impairment or low vision to more easily move through public, urban indoor and outdoor spaces.
  • A navigation system with 10 centimeter accuracy

    Researchers have developed an alternative positioning system that is more robust and accurate than GPS, especially in urban settings. The working prototype that demonstrated this new mobile network infrastructure achieved an accuracy of 10 centimeter....  больше
  • Low-cost sensor records the level of rivers

    Researchers have developed a method that allows the water level of rivers to be monitored around the clock. The cost-effective sensor is for instance suitable for area-wide flood warning systems.
  • Smart inverters' vulnerability to cyberattacks needs to be identified and countered, according to researchers

    Distributed energy resources (DERs) like home-based solar panels or electric vehicle chargers rely on field devices known as smart inverters to interface with power grids. As a new study shows, these devices' reliance on digital information and...  больше
  • Fitness levels can be accurately predicted using wearable devices -- no exercise required

    Researchers have developed a method for measuring overall fitness accurately on wearable devices -- and more robustly than current consumer smartwatches and fitness monitors -- without the wearer needing to exercise.
  • A self-powered ingestible sensor opens new avenues for gut research

    Engineering researchers have developed a battery-free, pill-shaped ingestible biosensing system designed to provide continuous monitoring in the intestinal environment. It gives scientists the ability to monitor gut metabolites in real time, which wasn't...  больше
  • Palm e-tattoo can tell when you're stressed out

    Researchers have applied emerging electronic tattoo (e-tattoo) technology to the tricky task of measuring stress levels by attaching a device to people's palms.
  • Harnessing smartphones to track how people use green spaces

    A new study demonstrates how anonymized GPS data from people's smartphones can be used to monitor the public's use of parks and other green spaces in urban areas, which could help inform their management.
  • Checking blood pressure in a heartbeat, using artificial intelligence and a camera

    Engineers have designed a system to remotely measure blood pressure by filming a person's forehead and extracting cardiac signals using artificial intelligence algorithms.
  • A novel, space-time coding antenna promotes 6G and secure wireless communications

    Scientists have developed a novel antenna that allows manipulation of the direction, frequency and amplitude of the radiated beam, and is expected to play an important role in the integration of sensing and communications (ISAC) for 6th-generation (6G)...  больше
