A significant and convenient approach to detection and analysis of
biological, environmental and agricultural items is the harnessing of
features in widely available smartphones to create field-deployable
scientific instruments, allowing measurements to be made onsite and in
real-time. This book will cover a number of self-contained smartphone
instruments with the particular focus on spectroscopic-based
measurements. Measurement and analysis on precision of such
low-cost instrumentations are provided to compare with more
expensive commercial equipment.
This book also discusses some
limitations, possible recommendations and scopes for further
instrumentations using smartphones and other smart devices.
Particularly, the opportunity to integrate the devices into the global
Internet-of-Things (IoT) platform will be discussed.
Researchers
and instrumentation designers in optical and photonic sensing, smart
and IoT-based sensing, biological and environmental analysts,
agricultural, and food quality researchers (and public health
authorities) will find this book useful as reference. Students in
science and engineering disciplines for teaching and educational
purposes will also find this book useful as a secondary textbook.
