IoT Sensor Nodes: Low-Power Photodiodes for Battery-Operated Devices
There is nothing—and I mean nothing—more frustrating for an IoT designer than a battery that dies three months into a “five-year” deployment. You calculate the

If you are building agricultural IoT devices, you know the pressure isn’t just coming from the weather. It’s coming from the market. Farmers don’t want

Look, the hype around autonomous driving has been a rollercoaster. A few years ago, everyone thought we’d be sleeping in the back of our cars

Ten, maybe fifteen years ago, if you told a procurement manager in Germany or the US that you were sourcing high-precision optical sensors from China,

If you are in the water treatment game, you know that “trust” is a heavy word. When a client buys your sterilization equipment, they aren’t

If you’ve been in the medical instrumentation game as long as I have, you know the drill. You’re designing a new fluorescence analyzer or a

If you are an electronic design engineer, you have probably had a product manager drop a set of requirements on your desk that defies physics.

There is nothing—and I mean nothing—more frustrating in the lab than setting up a precision optical measurement, hooking up your scope, and seeing… noise. Just

If you are designing the optical bench for a next-gen DNA sequencer or a qPCR machine, you aren’t sleeping much. The biology is getting faster,

Look, nobody wants to be the engineer responsible for a medical device that fails when it matters most. When a patient’s oxygen levels drop, that
