PC-based and modular data-acquisition systems—cards and boxes—have been around almost as long as the PC itself (Ref. 1). But because these components were usually just part of a larger system, users ...

A research paper has uncovered a sensor calibration attack that is capable of pulling device data and can track Android and iPhone handsets across the internet almost instantly — without any user ...

Although smartphones and other consumer cameras are increasingly used for scientific applications, it's difficult to compare and combine data from different devices. A new easy-to-use standardized ...

In utility-scale solar, the industry’s data maturity has reached a turning point. It is no longer enough to simply measure irradiance — the standard is ...

In the previous article, Data Acquisition and Instrumentation: The DAS and Sensors, we looked at the electronics and sensors involved in data acquisition systems (DASs). In this second part, we look ...

A new device fingerprinting technique can track Android and iOS devices across the Internet by using factory-set sensor calibration details that any app or website can obtain without special ...

Have you ever wondered exactly when a certain group of plants or animals first evolved? A new resource for scientists is designed to help answer just those kinds of questions. The Fossil Calibration ...
