After successful completion of the course, students are able to understand the underlying problems in the recording of the respective measurand and the solution approaches involved in the most diverse and quite complementary areas of sensor technology. Furthermore, they will understand the basics of microfluidics.
After completing the exercise, students will be able to work with a lock-in amplifier, understand various electrical noise mechanisms, and optimize the anti theft system.

Due to the current requirements of the government and the Vienna University of Technology, it is not possible to hold this lecture and its exams in class, so - as in the winter semester - we will switch to distance learning. The lecture will be held via Zoom, details can be found in the corresponding TUWEL course.
The laboratory exercise part may take place in presence. The two exercise parts will take place with appropriate precautionson on one day (morning + afternoon) to keep travel to a minimum. The appointments will take place in the warmer part of the semester (May, June) so that the feasible enhance ventilation of the room enables the best possible protection against Corona.
