For the dating of indigenous rock art, the early detection of diabetes, detecting bushfire-causing lightning strikes and tracking space junk: four researchers described how they are using sensors in an inspiring and diverse range of applications at the Women in Sensing event at ANU.
Read MoreA Grand Challenge Fund project is hoping to eliminate the reliance of sensors on disposable batteries that generate toxic waste when discarded, by testing the fast production of perovskite photovoltaic cells with the hope of creating a more sustainable sensor power source.
Read MoreThis month meet three researchers working at the frontiers of AI and data; read how smart sensors could help honeybees resist varroa mite; and learn about some of the best tech investments.
Read MoreMeet Dr Connie Henson, a Senior Research Fellow at Djurali Centre for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Research and Education at the Heart Research Institute, who believes an equity-first approach is also the best way to conduct robust high high-quality digital health research.
Read MoreThe Varroa mite is a key threat to Australia's biodiversity as it feeds on honey bees and transmits bee viruses. Trying to help stem the damage to a wide range of pollination-reliant food crops is ANU bee researcher Professor Sasha Mikheyev.
Read MoreMeet three researchers in our network, learn about their research and find out what draws them to working in data or Artificial Intelligence.
Read MoreThe best investments – new NSSN Board member Natasha Rawlings writes – are usually based around someone solving their own, or someone else’s problem.
Read MoreFour leading scientists and engineers who work with smart sensors will headline a stimulating panel discussion at the next NSW Smart Sensing Network Women in Sensing event at the Australian National University on 12 September.
Read MoreCollaboration and impact were the themes of the NSSN’s quarterly Sensing Industry Connect at the University of Newcastle this week.
Read MoreScientists are trialling cost-effective sensors which will empower bushfire managers to efficiently monitor the moisture content of bushfire fuel in real time, therefore helping them to better identify prescribed burn opportunities and monitor fire risk.
Read MoreThis month learn about the three Sensing for Disasters projects; read how researchers at Macquarie University, ANU and the University of Sydney are creating a sustainable, remote beehive monitoring system using smart sensors; and learn how quantum sensing is set to transform Australian industries.
Read MoreResearchers at Macquarie University, ANU and University of Sydney are creating a sustainable, remote beehive monitoring system using nanostructured gas sensors, which they say will maintain optimal hive health and lead to increased honey production and quality.
