Titelbeschreibung

Taken as a whole, this series covers all major fields of application for commercial sensors, as well as their manufacturing techniques and major types. As such the series does not treat bulk sensors, but rather places strong emphasis on microsensors, microsystems and integrated electronic sensor packages. Each of the individual volumes is tailored to the needs and queries of readers from the relevant branch of industry. An international team of experts from the leading companies in this field gives a detailed picture of existing as well as future applications. They discuss in detail current technologies, design and construction concepts, market considerations and commercial developments. Topics covered include vehicle safety, fuel consumption, air conditioning, emergency control, traffic control systems, and electronic guidance using radar and video.

Back cover copy

In modern automobiles, numerous types of sensors fulfill many important tasks ranging from engine performance and passenger safety to comfort and vehicle dynamic behavior. Although rarely visible, they contribute significantly to the vehicle’s performance, quality, image and its customer appeal. This book describes the different sensing principles and their applications in existing as well as new automotive electronic systems. Current technologies, design and construction concepts used to realize these sensors are discussed in detail, featuring amongst others bulk and surface micromacchining, thin and thick film technology, high performance ceramics as well as radar and video. Market considerations and commercial developments in the automotive industry complete the detailed picture given by the international assembly of experts from the leading companies in this field. Meeting the growing need for comprehensive information on the capabilities, potentials and limitations of modern sensor systems, Sensors Applications is a book series covering the use of sophisticated technologies and materials for the creation of advanced sensors and their implementation in the key areas process monitoring, building control, health care, automobiles, aerospace, environmental technology and household applicance.
