💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: Engineers at #PennState have developed a conductive #ink that works like face paint to create customizable electrodes for monitoring #heart, #muscle, and #brain activity.

The #water-based ink dries on #skin within minutes, conforms closely for more accurate readings, and can be washed off and reapplied. In tests, the sensors tracked #ECG for 12 hours and fed muscle signals to a robotic #prosthetic.

I am pleased to share our joint publication on how wearable Mid-IR spectroscopy together with AI can be used for continuous monitoring of metabolic syndrome to improve preventive healthcare.

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🩸🧊 Iron rich #saltwater trapped beneath Taylor #Glacier for over a million years seeps out in red pulses that look like bleeding.

A 2026 study from #Louisiana State University caught an outflow in action using #GPS, #cameras, and temperature #sensors. #Sulfate breathing #bacteria thrive in the dark brine, making Blood Falls a model for life on icy worlds.

This Company Will Add #Phone , #AirPod , and #Smartwatch #Trackers to #LicensePlate Readers

A #surveillance company plans to add #sensors to automatic license plate readers (ALPRs) that would mean the devices, as well as capture the license plate of passing vehicles, would also sweep up unique identifiers of mobile phones, wearables, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices in those cars, potentially letting law enforcement identify specific drivers or passengers.

The technology, called #SignalTrace , would turn #ALPR #cameras from devices focused on #tracking cars to ones that can more readily track the location of particular people. ALPR cameras have become a commonly deployed technology all across the U.S.; SignalTrace would make some of those cameras capable of collecting much more data.

🎉 Oh, joy! Another riveting tale of outdated doodads and their inevitable #demise at the hands of the mighty sensor overlords. 🌟 The moral? Your dusty devices are basically ancient relics that need life support, proving once more that technology is basically a long con. 🚀

After testing 7 #LilyGO #TBeamSupreme units, one thing is clear:

👉 Magnetometer calibration is not transferable between devices.

Even in similar environments, raw readings varied dramatically between units. Proper calibration isn’t optional—it’s per-device.

I also looked at how #Meshtastic handles the onboard #QMC6310… and it essentially doesn’t (no heading, no calibration).

Sensor systems, continuous monitoring and data analysis by AI mentioned (article partly behind paywall). Also Finnish sensor manufacturer (chemical, optical and pressure sensors) Vaisala in spotlight.
