  1. Sensor Capability and Opportunity David Cumming

  2. What do we mean by “sensor”

  3. Market data: Europe 2009: $12.5B • High diversity • CAGR = 6.7% • Analysis considers: Field Instruments, MEMS, Personnel Protection, Motion & Position, Others • Growth driven by increased applications • Global Value estimate $69B (2013) 2016: $18.9B

  4. Sensor System Functional Model • Aim: to rationalise diverse subject into a coherent picture User (superior decision system ) Power, control, manage Visualisation & presentation System Integration Information Analysis & post processing Data repository Communications and networking Transductance & pre-processing Data Sensor Element Measurand A single hierarchical model defines interfaces across the system

  5. How does GU do - income • £42M research and contract income associated with staff in sensors space £21M

  6. How does GU do – academic output • 700 papers since 2008 associated with staff in sensors space 230

  7. External Drivers • External Market conditions: Sensors & Sensor Systems • Market Opportunities: drug discovery; point of care diagnostics; SMART grid; offshore, renewables, oil & gas and shipping; intelligent transport; environmental; CBRNE (Defence) • [SE Study 2010:PA Consulting Sensors Foresighting] • The world-wide sensors component market is estimated to grow from its current global value of $44bn to $69.2bn by 2013 • [Frost and Sullivan Sensors Market report 2009] • The market for sensor systems is estimated to be 7 times the market for sensor components of ~$490bn • [EPoSS Strategic Research Agenda 2009 – European Union Commission]

  8. Glasgow Leadership • The Scottish Sensor Systems Centre (S3C) responds to the Scottish Funding Council’s call for Knowledge Exchange (KE) proposals • SFC funding of £1.2M /3 years received for terrestrial and subsea activities • Demand identified through meetings between academic and industrial partners. A coalition of 23 contributing industrial partners has been established • University of Glasgow is leading terrestrial work stream

  9. A collaborative vision • Engagement to provide • a link with between existing research activities • a focus point to industry operating across the sensor value chain • sensor test beds to allow new technologies to be fully exercised • infrastructure locations to undertake real monitoring application development Industry Public Sector Academia The primary aims are to:- accelerate Innovation; provide input to research based on the needs of industry; build and maintain a community able to exploit the results

  10. Industrial partners: providers and users

  11. Three Case Studies • Three case studies that illustrate GU intervention Power, control, manage Visualisation & presentation System Integration Analysis & post processing Data repository Communications and networking Transductance & pre-processing Sensor Element

  12. The University of Glasgow Statistics Group • The University of Glasgow Statistics group • Spatiotemporal models to data collected in networks of sensors • Methodology for spatiotemporal models • Visualisation • modelling flood risk in Scotland • monitoring water quality and biogeochemical cycling • modelling brain signals • modelling air quality (and health impacts) Orthophosphate in England and Wales Map of brain activity Modelling River Flow Nitrate in the Tweed

  13. Ion Sensing - Gene Sequencing The FIRST Glasgow array Migration and scale-up Ion Torrent Ion Torrent World Economic Forum Further scale-up World’s first optics-free sequencing system

  14. Probes for Atomic Force Microscopy GU research productised and sold through KNT GU/KNT estimated to have 95% of world-wide market • Palladium resistance thermometer • Versatile • Sensitive • Linear Batch fabricated probes on wafer scale A Kelvin Nanotechnology Product

  15. Summary • There’s no getting away from it: • “Sensors” is a complex and diverse field that means many different things to different people • The field can be rationalised as a layered “stack” • Glasgow University contributes expertise throughout the stack • There is an emerging national agenda to which we have a good fit • Glasgow University has excellent impact on sensors research and implementation
