The development of low-cost, robust, reproducible optical chemical sensors using inkjet printing.
In: Sensor Systems for Environmental Monitoring, 14 October 2010, London, England.
The optical sensor industry is forseen to be-
come a $4 billion market worldwide within 10
years. This projected figure suggests the
incorporation of wireless sensor networks into
our daily lives. In order to achieve this, many
hardware requirements have already been met,
with many of the world’s top university in-
volved in wireless "mote" development. The
objective of this study is to prove that inkjet
printed sensors will be compatible with these
motes in terms of both accuracy and more im-
portantly reproducibility.
