  1. Fysisk institutt - Rikshospitalet Chapter 2 Basic sensors and principles

  2. What is a sensor? Image: Grimnes, Høgetveit.Biomedical Engineering Education & Advanced Bioengineering Learning: Interdisciplinary Concepts. ”A sensor is a mediator able to convert one or more measurands or physical variables into an equivalent signal variable of another type of quantity within a frame of a given unity” Pallàs-Areny, Webster, Sensors 2001

  3. More definitions.... Image: Grimnes-Høgetveit.Biomedical Engineering Education & Advanced Bioengineering Learning: Interdisciplinary Concepts. • Sensor system: ”comprises the total signal path from the measurand to the observer and includes all sensing, conditioning and real-time processing elements in the path” • Electrode: ” An electrode is an electrochemical cell converting charge carriers from ions to electrons or vice versa. An electrode is only a half-sensor in the way that two electrodes are necessary in order to apply a current or read a potential difference in living tissue” • Probe: A ”probe is a broader concept than a sensor. A probe is often comprising multiparameter sensors (e.g. temperature) and may be held by the operator and be equipped with switches and level adjustment facilities. Example: Ultrasound probe” Source: Grimnes-Høgetveit.Biomedical Engineering Education & Advanced Bioengineering Learning: Interdisciplinary Concepts.
