DSC 355 - Introduction to Sensors

3 CR

Sensors are one of the foundational drivers of the proliferation of big data in the modern world. Sensors help us to monitor our environment, augment our existing bodily sensors, and set the stage for interpretation of data through informatics. Students will be introduced to theories of measurement, types of sensing devices, the basics of physics and chemistry, and the notion of uncertainty. Students will complete hands-on projects utilizing an Arduino sensor platform. (This course is cross listed with CIS 355 .)

Prerequisite(s): CIS 135  or CIS 150  or CIS 360  or any PHY or CHY or permission of instructor.
