The importance of sensors in modern society is increasing rapidly. There are plenty of examples where sensors are needed to gain increased safety (i.e. cars), decreased influence on the environment (i.e. process control in industry, pollution control in cars) and more efficient use of energy (i.e. in-house climate control). Other examples where sensors are expected to get vital importance is Virtual Reality (i.e. remote controlled robotic operations in medicine as well as computer games and simulators). The aim of this course is to give a broad overview of the most common sensor principles and measurement methods for measurements of physical, chemical and bio-chemical parameters i.e. temperature, pressure, oxygen level, pH, etc.

För godkänd kurs skall doktoranden be able to look for, sort out and acquire information from an extensive information material without any reading instructions.
The course consider the most common sensors and measurement methods for measurement of physical, chemical and bio-chemical measurement parameters in the field of process- and manufacturing industry as well as medicine and society. Furthermore, the interfacing, applied signal processing and data acquisition system are studied. The course includes a project that considers a specific measurement parameter or sensor principle. The project task is to gain information about sensor principles and use through literature studies and experimental work. The project is presented oral at a seminar and is finally put together in a written report. A large part of lectures are given by the students as projectseminars.
