Process sensor technology—the mainstay instrumentation that monitors temperature, pressure and flow levels—has remained fairly steady over the years against a backdrop of accelerating digital ...

Batch processing and testing is a mainstay of the biopharmaceutical industry today. But, as operations become increasingly automated and continuous and integrated manufacturing is adapted more widely, ...

Soft sensors, also known as virtual sensors, are software that can process hundreds of measurements in combination. Plant managers who want to add soft sensors may be overwhelmed by the scope of ...

A growing chorus of experts warns that process sensors — long excluded from cybersecurity standards due to their non-routable protocols — pose a critical risk to the electric grid as FERC and NERC ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — How long it takes to construct a building depends in large part on when the concrete of each floor is strong enough to take on loads. Purdue University engineers have developed ...

A guide for engineers balancing performance, reliability, and manufacturability across today’s smart systems By Barry Brents, ...

The wearable sensor market is growing at an annual compound rate of 17.8%. However, sensors have challenges, particularly in terms of miniaturization and power consumption. Several key parameters are ...

MEMS-based accelerometers are increasingly deployed in harsh environments where mechanical stress is not just expected but constant.

A COVID-19 sensor developed at Johns Hopkins University could revolutionize virus testing by adding accuracy and speed to a process that frustrated many during the pandemic. In a new study published ...

Note: This specialization requires purchase of a hardware kit in order to apply your knowledge and skill with real world tools. The hardware will be used to complete the lab exercises across the four ...
