Learning outcomes
At the end of this module the student is able to:
- Explain the physical, chemical or biological principles of smart sensors systems suitable for the specialisation field.
- Based on current scientific literature, choose the best type of smart system suitable for detection and/or analysis of a given signal relevant for the application considered.
- Describe smart sensor system requirements specific to the application domain.
- Describe how a smart system solution constitutes an innovation in the specialisation domain, if possible using a solution related with their plan for the graduation project.
- Describe the impact of an innovation on the responsible use of natural resources and the needs of all relevant components of biological systems and human societies, if possible using a solution related with their plan for the graduation project.
