A newly developed thin, flexible magnetic sensor could heighten human perception, and it's pliable enough to be crumpled and scrunched while retaining functionality.

These sensors must be highly sensitive to detect the low signals that magnetic fields produce. MEG technology can record both normal and abnormal brain signals every millisecond.

When a magnetic field is applied, the atoms undergo energy shifts. The researchers used a laser to measure these shifts ...

A huge number of these magnetic field sensors can exist in a thin layer of diamond. This makes it possible for us to create a magnetic image of the object that the sensor sees," explained Wickenbrock.

Researchers have now developed a breakthrough solution—washable and touchless interactive textiles, powered by magnetic field sensors, that could redefine wearable technology.

Magnetic resonance technology is a common technique used for chemical analysis of compounds, however, traditional resonance technologies operate at high magnetic fields and they're very expensive.
