Scope

Chemical sensors are key devices for acquisition of information of our surrounding physical and chemical spaces. Taste sensor, odor sensor and environmental sensor are typical application of the chemical sensors. The term "Bio-Inspired technology" and "Biomimetic technology" are keywords for the objective chemical sensor development. Chemical sensor devices composed of sensing material layer, transducer layer and sensing system layer, therefore, the sensor technology requires material science, fabrication technology, measuring engineering, system engineering, and sensor signal handling. The symposium has following scopes and application topics;
Scope: taste sensor, odor sensor, electronic nose, electronic tongue, gas sensor, bio-inspired sensor, biomimetic sensor, bioelectronics, bio-sensing, nanoscale materials, organic electronic materials, device fabrication, sensor array, signal processing, pattern recognition.
Application: evaluation and digitization of odor and taste, environmental evaluation, visualization of chemical spaces, odor display, odor recording, human-ehcmial interface, odor image sensing, human body odor and diagnosis, safety and security sensing, fire detection, explosive detection.
