Abstract:

There has been an explosion of interest in the development and deployment of all manner of sensors in the last few years. So much so, that the ACS has a new journal devoted entirely to them and Uncle Sam has a website that serves their interests in sensors of all types. A wide range of chemistries are employed in meeting today’s needs. This interest generates opportunities for CCN members with their broad range of skills and expertise. This presentation covers a little history, many examples from the present day and a peek into what the future might bring.
