Peter McGeehinSummarises the report of a Sensors Task Force which was formed as part of the UK Technology Foresight exercise. Examines the various markets for sensor technology, both globally…
Smart sensors
Paul G. RankyThe purpose of developing smart (analog and digital) sensors for networked machine/process monitoring, and other tasks, is to make them as easy and trouble free to deploy, program…
Innovative thin‐film pressure mapping sensors
Michael HunstonA novel approach is presented for measuring contact pressure across a defined area using thin Mylar film sensors. The design and benefits from the use of such technology is…
Thin flexible pressure sensors
C.M.A. AshrufThis article gives an overview on the currently available techniques for the measurement of interface pressure or force between (soft) objects. These techniques make use of single…
Efficient sensor system for online contour tracking in textile machinery
Joerg StephanThe apparel industry in high wage countries can only be competitive globally by rationalizing its production process with automation. A particular stress is to be laid on the…
Thermistors – in search of new applications, manufacturers cultivate advanced NTC techniques
Rajanish K. Kamat, Gourish M. NaikAs leading sensors of ambient conditions, temperature sensors act as important sensing devices. They are essential in a large variety of products. A variety of temperature sensors…
Laser probe design for carbon content in ash measurement
Abdel K. Ouazzane, Redha BenhadjThe polarisation ratio of the linearly polarised light backscattered by fly ash particles is indicative of the carbon content. The determination of this parameter is useful to…
