Caterpillars respond defensively to electric fields similar to those emitted by their natural predators, scientists at the University of Bristol have found. In the study, published today in the ...

The design of the circuit established the usage of Field Effect Transistors (FET) , as a precise detector of static electricity. It detects the invisible fields of voltage encircling every item ...

Could detecting static electricity be a factor in explaining why treehopper insects have evolved such bizarre body shapes? That is the hypothesis put forward in a new research paper published in ...

This DIY lightning detector circuit is a very sensitive static electricity detector that can provide an early warning of approaching storms from inter-cloud discharge well before an earth-to-sky ...

When you hear the word “electricity”, thoughts of power lines or household appliances are probably conjured up in your mind. But electricity is not just a modern human phenomenon – it was around long ...
