Intelligent Sensor Systems - Sensors Author:John Brignell, Neil White This is a survey of the disparate elements that make up intelligent sensor system technologies. It proceeds from the basic philosophies of measurement and information to examples of modern applications which exploit the newly available signal processing power. The essential theoretical background for an understanding of the capabilities of syste... more »ms is included in the early chapters. The latter half of the text is a guide to the implementation of intelligent sensor systems, placing emphasis on the range of possibilities offered by the exploitation of digital electronic hardware and software. Sensor networks and the exploitation of ASIC technology are also discussed.« less
