Science Daily  September 12, 2018 In IoT there are vast numbers of spatially distributed wireless sensors predominately based on electronics which are often are hampered by electromagnetic interference. Researchers at Washington University developed whispering gallery mode (WGM) sensors resonating at light frequencies and at vibrational or mechanical frequencies. The 127 mm by 67 mm mainboard of the WGM sensor integrates the entire architecture of the sensor system. The sensor, made of glass, is connected to the mainboard by a single optical fiber. A laser light is used to probe a WGM sensor. Light coupled out of the sensor is sent […]
