Uses a multidisciplinary approach to review recent developments in the field of smart sensor systems, providing complete coverage of all important system and design aspects, their building blocks and methods of signal processing. The book systematically deals with topics over the whole range of sensor technology: from the theory and constraints of basic elements, the applied techniques and electronic, up to the level of application-orientated issues. It firstly looks at designing smart sensors and smart sensor systems, with measurement techniques at system level, such as
