Implementation of optical fiber sensor in biomedical Optical fiber sensor for biomedical application Applications for biomedical sensors can be named in vivo or in vitro. In vivo alludes to application on an entire, living life form, for example, a human patient; in vitro alludes to testing outside the body, for example, research facility blood tests. From the point of view of how sensors are connected to a patient or organic framework, they can be named noninvasive, reaching (skin surface),…
5 Proximity Sensor 5.1 Introduction A proximity sensors is the sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact. A proximity sensors often emits an electromagnetic field or a beam of electromagnetic radiation, and looks for changes in the field or return signal. The object being sensed is often referred to as the proximity sensor's target. Different proximity sensor target demand different sensor. For examples a capacitive or photoelectric sensors might be…
account, then the sensors, Wi-Fi or GPRS, the location and finally the serial port. To minimize battery consumption, I did not use the GPS antenna to detect and acquire automatically the location. I manually added the location of the device in the codes using latitude and longitude coordinates. The Eco-Smart Can device will try to update the collected data to Internet on the Ubidots…
advances in technology, have contributed to both a need and a means to create user friendly smart home devices. (Smart metering, 2015) Wireless sensor technology and handheld smart devices such as phones and tablets have become the platform on which this new wave of technology has been based. In combination…
tactile sensors, along with suitable performance criteria for their comparison are discussed. Finally, currently existing commercial sensors are talked about in detail, including the leading manufacturers, their products and the description of their data sheet. Keywords— Artificial skin; Commercial; Sensors; Tactile. I. INTRODUCTION The word Tactile means – ‘perceptible by touch’. So sensors that acquire information related to tactile, through physical touch are known as tactile sensors. So,…
the design of two bioanalytical sensors: (1) a fluorescence optrode-based optical fiber sensor and (2) a carbon-based optically transparent electrode. The first provides a means for spatially organizing microorganisms to monitor their social behavior in response to different chemical environments. The electrode sensor enables the detection of signaling molecules that are responsible for, or a consequence of, sociomicrobial behavior. Upon their completion, these sensors will be coupled with a…
invented for monitoring health condition of an individual. This is fitted in the body of a person Wire Sensor Network or WSN is possible due improvement of sensor technology as well as computer miniaturization. As the data related to patients are stored in a WBAN it is imperative that security of the data must be maintained. Body Area Network is a system comprising of wireless network of sensors to monitor health designed for delivering personalized health-care. Acquiring communications inside…
vehicles and other automobiles with vertically mounted rear window screens that are prone to dust accumulation. Modern automobiles are now being equipped with rain sensing wipers that detect the presence and quantity of rain by utilizing a rain sensor. This sensor automatically controls the speed of the wiper blades according to the amount of rain experienced. There is a variety of wiper blades in the market. The thing to keep in mind when shopping for a wiper blade is that it…
fixed interval the PC Master sends request to the Wireless sensor node through the sub master for Data collection. The request send by the PC Master is in the form of frames. The frame which is transmitted by PC master will contain both the sub master id & the wireless sensor node id from where the data should be retrieved. The sub master receives the frame is then check for the wireless sensor node id and then it retransmit to the wireless sensor node as it is. If one of the sub masters become…
Though all the technology discussed in the passages are very interesting and useful devices. The Dropsonde Hurricane Sensor seems to be the most useful for researchers and explorers today. The 'Mailbox', discussed in the first passage, "sent powerful jets of water down curved metal tubes..The clear water flushes away 40ft. wide strips of sand on the murky ocean floor." (found under the picture near line 6). This machine helps people find underwater treasures. When it comes down to it, it's not…
