Fires are frequently caused by smoldering cables. Novel sensors now help detect such smoldering fires at an early stage by analyzing the plastic vapors released by overheated insulating cables.

Folium Sensing transforms optical fibre cables into real-time distributed sensors for monitoring various critical ...

Researchers say splitting subsea cables into a sensor array ‘has the potential to transform our understanding of both shallow and deep processes inside the Earth’. A group of researchers from the US, ...

The global network of seafloor cables may be good for more than ferrying digital communication between continents. These fiber-optic cables could also serve as underwater earthquake detectors, ...

As the highlight of a $1.8-million, four-year federally funded research program, academic and industry researchers have begun testing multiple types of bridge-cable sensors in a chamber generating ...

Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have demonstrated that fiber-optic cables buried in simulated lunar soil can ...

The M12 line of sensor cables and connectors features male or female, straight or 90° angle connectors, with or without LED indication in three, four, five, or eight poles. Cable materials are PVC, ...

Celeste Labedz heard a sound like thunder roll across the ice. She was standing on Alaska’s Taku Glacier, a vast field of snow-smothered ice between towering mountains, when the icequake began: a ...
