Tactile Sensors for Advanced Intelligent Systems

Intelligent Sensors: Systems or Components?

This paper reviews the field of intelligent (smart) sensor technology and describes some of the trends that have emerged over the last two decades. The functionality of intelligent sensors is discussed, together with an assessment of the various technologies that can be employed to achieve both the hardware and software aspects of the discipline. The current interest in sensor networks poses so...

Smart Sensors for Advanced Combustion Systems

Introduction This research is directed at the development and application of a new class of optical sensors, based on absorption of light from tunable diode lasers, which enable in situ measurements of temperature and gaseous composition, in real time and in a variety of research-oriented and practical energy-conversion systems. These sensors have significant potential to enable exploratory res...

Intelligent Systems for Advanced Mission Operations

Many mission operations systems and tools have been developed over the past decades as NASA has operated the Mars Exploration Rovers, the Space Shuttle, and International Space Station. Usually there is little cross-fertilization between the unmanned mission operations systems and those used for manned spaceflight. NASA Ames Research Center has been developing and applying its advanced intellig...
