Content of the course: methods for measuring displacement, velocity, acceleration, torque, liquid level, pressure, flow, humidity, sound and temperature. Ultrasound, optical and nuclear measurement techniques and applications, material analyses such as pH measurement and gas concentration, smart sensors.

Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:
* explain the operating principles of different electronic sensors;
* select the right sensor for each measuring target;
* identify requirements that affect sensor selection;
* recognize and evaluate the main factors affecting the accuracy and uncertainty of a measurement;
* select appropriate sensor signal conditioning circuits, connection strategy and shielding;
* perform calculations of the main static and dynamical characteristics
