Intelligent sensory micro-nanosystems and networks

Abstract

The presented chapter on the theme of “Intelligent sensory micro-nanosystems and networks” is devoted to scientific research, modeling and designing of sensory systems on a chip of the types of “electronic nose” (e-nose), “electronic tongue” (e-tongue), “electronic eye” (e-eye) to recognize multidimensional information patterns in modern micronanosensory technology, electronics, industrial biotechnology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, medicine, ecology, precision agriculture, economy, finances, logistics, computer systems and networks, personal and social safety etc. A human biosystem has an enormous number of different micro-nanobiosensors and micro-nanoactuators which are able sensitively to perceive, to transform and to transmit any patterns changes of external matters or homeostasis, therefore all in the world can be and has to be sensory and motoric. Design of surface acoustic waves (SAW) sensors in wireless micro-nanosensory laboratories on a chip e-nose and e-tongue allows to identify physico-acoustic and electroacoustic properties (viscosity, mass, impedance, dielectric conductivity, electroconductivity and etc.), e.g., of investigated human biomatters (blood, sweat, saliva, urine, tears and etc.) and to form on their basis an information pattern. A micro-nanosensory system e-eye makes it possible to analyse quantitative concentration characteristics, molecular features and acoustooptical properties of information biomatters. At the same time, an intensive development of multicore data processing systems opens up ample possibilities for express analysis and pattern recognition. Presented developed intelligent micro-nanodiagnostic laboratories find exceptional practical and individual applications and are a new class of self-adjusting sensory and portable mobile devices with flexible learning softwares for reliable continuous control of personal and social safety using Internet intelligent global sensory networks. They don’t require special application conditions, highly skilled specialists to form fast and exactly information patterns of any diagnostic object. Using of the intelligent software for processing of registered sensory data enables to get “electronic maps” of objects, their online full information descriptions and to predict efficiently future changes.
