3.   Mechanical and thermal sensors

4.   Optoelectronic/photonic sensors

5.   Ionizing radiation sensors

6.   Integrated and combined sensor devices: fiber optics, photometry, fluorimetry, interfermetry, electrical + mechanical, etc.

7.   Microwave/millimeter wave sensors

8.   Magnetic sensors

9.   Chemical and biological sensors

10.  Mass-sensitive devices

11.  Sensor-actuators

12. Sensor applications: automotive, medical, environmental monitoring, consumer, alarm and security, military, nautical, aeronautical and space sensor systems, robotics, automation, etc.

13. Intelligent sensors for on-line monitoring and process control; test kits

14. Internet based and other remote data acquisition and control of sensors

15.  Packaging and interconnections

16.  Sensor signal processing and array sensor fusion
