From page 29...
... The primary market needs can be categorized as economic, regulatory, and unique government requirements.2 Economic motivations for improved sensor materials and technology include reducing the cost of product manufacture, increasing a product's functionality at Tow additional cost, and improving the quality of the product. These motivations also improve product competitiveness.
From page 30...
... The first two chapters of this part contain illustrations of applications that dictate sensor requirements as well as the resultant impact on sensor materials. Chapter 3, "Selected Sensor Applications in Manufacturing," first discusses the role of sensors in dynamically tailoring the curing cycle of advanced polymeric composites to achieve superior properties at reduced cost.
From page 31...
... Key areas would include chemical sensors for consumer health monitors (e.g., for glucose and cholesterol) for home use, big-compatible materials for use with implants and prostheses, and chemical sensors to facilitate research in the human genome project.


This material may be derived from roughly machine-read images, and so is provided only to facilitate research.
