This book provides an overview of modern sensing technologies and
reflects the remarkable advances that have been made in the field
of intelligent and smart sensors, environmental monitoring, health
monitoring, and many other sensing and monitoring contexts in
today's world. It addresses a broad range of aspects, from human
health monitoring to the monitoring of environmental conditions,
from wireless sensor networks and the Internet of Things to
structural health monitoring. Given its breadth of scope, the book
will benefit researchers, practitioners, technologists and graduate
students involved in the monitoring of systems within the human
body, functions and activities, healthcare technologies and
services, the environment, etc.
This book offers an up-to-date overview of the concepts, modeling,
technical and technological details and practical applications of
different types of sensors, and discusses the trends of next
generation of sensors and systems for environmental and food
engineering. This book is aimed at researchers, graduate students,
academics and industry professionals working in the field of
environmental and food engineering, environmental monitoring,
precision agriculture and food quality control.
Sensors were developed to detect and quantify structures and
functions of human body as well as to gather information from the
environment in order to optimize the efficiency, cost-effectiveness
and quality of healthcare services as well as to improve health and
quality of life. This book offers an up-to-date overview of the
concepts, modeling, technical and technological details and
practical applications of different types of sensors. It also
discusses the trends for the next generation of sensors and systems
for healthcare settings. It is aimed at researchers and graduate
students in the field of healthcare technologies, as well as
academics and industry professionals involved in developing sensing
systems for human body structures and functions, and for monitoring
activities and health.

Biomedical Engineering Tools for Management of Patients with
COVID-19 presents biomedical engineering tools under research (and
in development) that can be used for the management of COVID-19
patients, along with BME tools in the global environment that
curtail and prevent the spread of the virus. BME tools covered in
the book include new disinfectants and sterilization equipment,
testing devices for rapid and accurate COVID-19 diagnosis, Internet
of Things applications in COVID-19 hospitals, analytics, Data
Science and statistical modeling applied to COVID-19 tracking,
Smart City instruments and applications, and more. Later sections
discuss smart tools in telemedicine and e-health. Biomedical
engineering tools can provide engineers, computer scientists,
clinicians and other policymakers with solutions for managing
patient treatment, applying data analysis techniques, and applying
tools to help the general population curtail spread of the virus.

The IoT is the inter-networking of connected and smart devices,
buildings, vehicles and other items which are embedded with
electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity
that enable these objects to collect and exchange data. A sensor is
a detection device that measures, records, or responds to a
physical property. Sensors represent the front end of information
processing. Progress in communication technologies is part of the
multi-factorial advances in electronics, sensors, embedded
computing, signal processing and machine learning methods that has
led to the development of new capabilities in the IoT. This edited
book focuses on the technologies constituting the IoT from a sensor
perspective, for an audience of researchers, scientists, engineers
and graduate students with an interest in the field. Applications
covered include connected sensors for smart cities, energy
infrastructure, emergency management, and smart ports.
