Marine systems are ocean and subsea monitoring and exploration systems deployed for a wide range of underwater missions and applications. It is accomplished by acquiring data of certain oceanographic parameters, such as biotic and abiotic forms of substances (foreign substances) that exist in the ocean bed. This real time information is sent to the...

Opportunities for chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive (CBRNE) threat agent detection systems are being largely driven by increasing threats of terrorist attacks. Chemical threats involve use of harmful and toxic industrial chemicals or materials and release of poisonous gases. Biological threats include premeditated attacks b...

Demand for terahertz imaging is driven by its ability to perform non-ionizing scanning on the human skin that does not harm the healthy cells in the surrounding infection areas—a primary requisite in the medical field—compared with conventional scanning modes such as x-ray and UV rays. Terahertz radiation is transparent to paper, wood, and a few ...

Opportunities for imaging radars are largely driven by the needs for high precision and high resolution imaging required in land surveillance for assessment of vegetation, topography, hydrology in turn enabling governments or influencing organizations make informed decisions. A key area where imaging radars are finding extensive adoption is for us...

Level 4 autonomous vehicles or self driving vehicles have a high level of automation in which the vehicle can perform all driving tasks and monitor the driver’s environment. The vehicle can operate without the driver’s inputs or oversight under certain conditions, such as type of road or geographic area. Level 5 autonomous vehicles have full autom...

Sensors are vital enablers of the Internet of Things (IoT), allowing a plethora of automated, connected devices that provide continuous feedback about their and can be remotely controlled. Sensors that are able to perform some processing and analysis on a wealth of data to provide the most important information with respect to their surroundings or...

Advancements in sensor technologies have created opportunities for fruits and vegetables producers to discover a wide range of solutions for food safety and food monitoring applications. Reduction in wastage, optimization of produce, reduction in cost, and adoption of smart devices are encouraging advancements in the food industry. Sensors are pla...

This study discusses the critical role of sensors in wearable electronics. Ten different types of sensors have been discussed. This number is expected to increase to accommodate more sensing functionalities in wearable devices. However, the scope of this research is much wider as a number of significant trends are discussed, related not only to sen...

Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) technology in imaging applications is relying on sensor technologies and software algorithms. SLAM allows autonomous systems such as self-driving cars, robots, and drones to simultaneously build a map of their surroundings, navigate, operate effectively, and estimate their position on that map. It levera...
