We present a multisensor designed for industrial compressed air diagnostics and combining the measurement of pressure, flow, and temperature, integrated with the corresponding signal conditioning electronics in a single low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) package. The developed sensor may be soldered onto an integrated electro-fluidic platform by using standard surface mount device (SMD) te...

Electronic noses and tongues can utilize noise data taken at the output of a chemical sensor. It is shown that even one single sensor may be suf®cient for realizing an electronic nose or tongue. # 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The micromachining technology that emerged in the late 1980s is able to provide micron-sized sensors and actuators. These micro transducers can be integrated with signal conditioning and processing circuitry to form micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) that can perform real-time distributed control. This capability opens up new territory for flow control research. On the other hand, surface e...

Electronic noses instruments were developed as systems for the discrimination of gases and odors. An electronic nose is a portable device which strives to sniff complex mixtures of volatile organic compounds. It consists of a large array of chemical sensors with associated signal conditioning and pattern recognition techniques. An electronic noses employs different types of gas sensors that use...

This paper proposes the electronic heart sound sensor, based on the piezoresistive principle and MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) technology. Firstly, according to the characteristics of heart sound detection, the double-beam-block microstructure has been proposed, and the theoretical analysis and finite element method (FEM) simulation have been carried out. Combined with the natural freq...

Because of economic, population, and consumption patterns changes, the use freshwater has increased significantly in last 100 years. Notably, measurement is essential to encourage water conservation. Thus, present study aims evaluate applicability a thin-film resistive sensor (bend sensor) with different coatings for implementation individualized systems. The motivation this work propose volume...
