Portable and Wearable Sensing Systems

Discover the sensors of the future with this comprehensive guide

Chemical sensors and biosensors have advanced enormously in recent decades, driven by growth in other technological areas and the refinement of manufacturing processes. Advances, especially, in wireless technology and flexible electronics have dramatically increased the practicality and availability of portable or wearable sensing systems. These have the potential to revolutionize disease diagnosis, food analysis, and environment monitoring at the point of care.

Portable and Wearable Sensing Systems: Techniques, Fabrication, and Biochemical Detection introduces these groundbreaking technologies and the underlying principles which make them possible. Beginning with an overview of the foundational optics and electrochemistry which power these systems, the book surveys methods of fabrication, applications, and projected future developments. The result is a comprehensive introduction to an essential medical and biochemical technology.

Portable and Wearable Sensing Systems readers will also find:

• Treatment of body fluid detection, exhaled breath sensing, ingestible devices, and more
• Detailed discussion of sensing system types including scattering, colorimetric, and chemiluminescence
• Forward-looking attention to the latest advances in every chapter

Portable and Wearable Sensing Systems is ideal for analytical chemists, materials scientists, bioengineers, biochemists, and anyone working with sensing technologies.
