Biography/History:

G.R. Sinha is an Adjunct Professor at International Institute of Information Technology, Bangalore, but currently deputed as Professor at Myanmar Institute of Information Technology. He obtained his BE and MTech with Gold Medal from National Institute of Technology, Raipur and his PhD in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering from Chhattisgarh Swami Vivekanand Technical University, Bhilai. He has published over 200 research papers, is an active reviewer and editorial member of numerous international journals and has authored or edited six books.

Summary:

Sensors are integral to modern living and are found in a huge number of applications in science, engineering and technology thus it is critical for scientists and technologists to understand the physical principles behind sensor types as well as their characteristics, applications, and how they can be suitably employed in sensor technologies. Whilst there exists a vast literature on the physics and characteristics of traditional sensors, this book provides a broad overview of the range of sensor technologies and attendant topics needed to optimize and utilise these devices in the modern world. Not only reviewing sensors by classification, the book encompasses the physics, design characteristics, simulation and interface electronics as well as including case studies, future challenges and several other aspects of wider sensor technology to provide an overview of modern sensors and their applications. The broad scope will appeal to industrial and academic researchers and application engineers especially those developing and implementing real-time hardware implementations employing smart sensors for emerging applications. Part of IOP Series in Sensors and Sensor Systems.
