ICMR Sponsored National Level Seminar on Smart Sensors in Healthcare Applications 2018

OBJECTIVE
Smart or intelligent sensors have played an important role in different industries. In the recent years, research on smart medical sensors is gaining increasing attention for health screening, diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment purposes, such as glucose monitoring, cancer screening, and automatic drug delivery. The coupling of sensor technology with nanotechnology, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), flexible electronics, smart phones, and wireless sensor networks are providing great opportunities for improving health care. This seminar will review new technologies, products, and research in medical sensors and their applications in improving health care efficiency. It will especially focus on the research of portable, non-invasive, smart breath sensors, which are becoming increasingly desirable for monitoring and detecting different diseases. The successful research and development of new medical smart sensors will rely on collaborative efforts from multidisciplinary teams, of which the role of research in industrial engineering will be presented.
In many industries, sensors have played a vital role in detecting chemical, biological, physical signals etc. In healthcare, to deliver care directly to patients sensors provide the mechanical vision for reading, counting, sorting & robotic guidance. In this seminar, we are going to explain the role of Role of sensors in healthcare, its technology, and applications etc in detail.
