This system enables fast and spatially resolved detection of the molecular composition of soil. It uses Shifted Excitation Raman Difference Spectroscopy (SERDS), which is based on a dual ...

After having landed, they're subsequently imaged by a drone – perhaps the same one that deployed them – which is equipped with a fLiDAR (fluorescence Light Detection and Ranging) system.

University of Wisconsin–Madison engineers have developed low-cost sensors that allow for real-time, continuous monitoring of nitrate in soil types that are common in Wisconsin. These printed ...

New research from the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering into biodegradable sensors may change the way farmers track, measure, and respond in real time to their soil’s microbial ...

Researchers have developed a new optical sensor that provides a simple way to achieve real-time detection of extremely low levels of arsenic in water.

Researchers from the University of Glasgow have developed compostable, screen-printed soil sensors made from biodegradable materials that break down into plant nutrients. These sensors could ...
