Description

Biosensors Sensors are devices that measure the physical, chemical or biological properties of an object providing a corresponding output. Such output is used to create feedback mechanisms used either as a reporter (data collection), to interrogate the state or nature of the sample or as a control. Relevance of Biosensors in medical, biotechnological, agricultural and food industries. The basics of sensors, their design and application on living systems. A combined approach between theory, case study-based lectures and practical sessions. Practical application of basic electronics, microcontroller-based development boards, small factor computers and open-source software to build simple sensors to measure the state of biological systems Lecture, 3 hours per week lecture; lab, 3 hours per week. Restriction: open to BEng majors only with a minimum 16 overall credits. Prerequisite(s): IENG 3P13 , IENG 3P14 .
