Universität des Saarlandes, Lehrstuhl für Messtechnik

Our research is focused on smart sensor systems for the measurement of chemical quantities as well as for industrial process monitoring. In the field of chemical sensors, we address gas and liquid phase and utilize both chemical and physical effects. We combine (micro) sensors with microelectronics for operation and read-out as well as with application-specific signal processing concepts to realize complex measurement systems. A specific focus topic is the development of automatable methods of machine learning in order to extract the desired, physically interpretable information from complex sensor patterns. Main areas of application are quality control, environmental and safety technology, renewable energy / energy efficiency and condition monitoring of mechatronic systems.
