The IOP Series in Sensors and Sensor Systems includes books on all aspects of the
science and technology of sensors and sensor systems. Spanning fundamentals,
fabrication, applications and processing, the series aims to provide a library for
instrument and measurement scientists, engineers and technologists in universities
and industry.
The series seeks (but is not restricted to) publications in the following topics:
• Advanced materials for sensing
• Biosensors
• Chemical sensors
• Industrial applications
• Internet of Things
• Lab-on-a-chip
• Localization and object tracking
• Manufacturing and packaging
• Mechanisms, modelling and simulations
• MEMS/NEMS
• Micro and nanosensors
• Non-destructive testing
• Optoelectronic and photonic sensors
• Optomechanical sensors
• Physical sensors
• Remote sensors
• Sensing for health, safety and security
• Sensing principles
• Sensing systems
• Sensor arrays
• Sensor devices
• Sensor networks
• Sensor technology and applications
• Signal processing and data analysis
• Smart sensors and monitoring
• Telemetry
Authors are encouraged to take advantage of electronic publication through the use of
colour, animations, video and interactive elements to enhance the reader experience.

Preface
Sensors have become essential parts of all automated systems, modern gadgets and
handy devices. Smartphones used commonly by all of us, have around 22 sensors for
various purposes. There have been advances in sensor technology in the last two
decades; and smart sensors have dominated in almost all applications of sensors.
Wearable, smart and intelligent sensors are used in numerous applications, such as
robotics, industrial robotics, space navigation, global positioning systems, smart
environment monitoring systems, driverless cars and so on. Sensors are like the eyes
in human vision and the capabilities of human eyes are exploited by the sensors
deployed for computer vision. Computer vision is empowered due to two important
components, namely machine learning methods and sensor technologies. There is
literature and books on physics and characteristics of traditional sensors such as
transducers, optical sensors, capacitive sensors, photo sensors etc, but most of the
resources fail to highlight simulation capabilities and applications of modern sensors
such as smart sensors, wearable sensors, wireless sensors, cognitive sensors etc.
Therefore, this book attempts to present the basics, introduction and overview of
sensors and technologies with more emphasis on modern sensors.
The book highlights: introduction and classification of sensors; overview and
applications of optical sensors; chemical sensors; simulation and calibration of
optical imaging sensors; smart and wearable sensors; cognitive and biosensors; and
also a major application of modern sensors in self driving cars. We have also
included future research directions on the emerging sensors so that more studies and
research can be carried out in the area of sensor research. The purpose of this book is
to bring out the fundamentals, background and theoretical concepts of sensors case
studies.
The book will be very useful for a wide spectrum of target readers, such as
research scholars, academia, and industry professionals. It is especially for those
who are working on real-time hardware implementations employing smart sensors
for merging applications like robotic arms, cognitive applications, brain–computer
interface etc.
