Case study
MIT Sensor Technologies Coursework
Sensor circuits I built in MIT Media Lab's Sensor Technologies for Interactive Environments course, from signal conditioning to touch sensing.
- Industrial Design
- Interaction Design
I took a course at MIT Media Lab, Responsive Environment Group by the name of Sensor Technologies for Interactive Environments and the course focuses on broad introduction to a host of sensor technologies, illustrated by applications drawn from human-computer interfaces and ubiquitous computing. After extensively reviewing electronics for sensor signal conditioning, the lectures cover the principles and operation of a variety of sensor architectures and modalities, including pressure, strain, displacement, proximity, thermal, electric and magnetic field, optical, acoustic, RF, inertial, and bioelectric. Simple sensor processing algorithms and wired and wireless network standards are also discussed.
