These can monitor industrial machine health and help prevent incipient failure

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay have successfully made low-cost piezo-resistive vibration sensors using polyurethane foam coated with carbon nanomaterial-based ink. These sensors can be used for monitoring the health of industrial machines and equipment and help identify incipient failures thereby enabling efficient maintenance schedule planning

IIT Bombay fabricates wearable sensor for monitoring movementWhen placed on the throat, the sensor could detect changes in pressure when different words were pronounced

When placed on the throat, the sensor could detect changes in pressure when different words were pronounced

A team led by researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay has developed an inexpensive, flexible pressure sensor that can be used for a variety of health-care applications. The piezoresistive pressure sensor could efficiently monitor even small-scale movements caused by low-pressure variations.
