2. Sensors in 2 the Environment 2014
Welcome to: Sensors in the Environment 2014
This short presentation provides an overview of the Conference, and an invitation to join us at Sensors in the Environment 2015
Michael Brand
Conference Chair
Sensor technology is growing at an almost unprecedented rate, driven by developments in material science, microfluidics, and wireless communications. Today sensors impact every aspect of our lives in the home, at work, in automobiles, in medicine and healthcare, and increasingly in environmental monitoring.
Sensors in the Environment 2014 brought together leading experts in sensor technology, environmental science and wireless technology to discuss the impact of sensors on the Environment and Human Health
