"IEEE Sensors Alert" is a pilot project of the IEEE Sensors Council. Started as one of its new initiatives, this weekly digest publishes teasers and condensed versions of our journal papers in layperson's language.
It’s impossible to imagine the modern lifestyle without positioning systems and navigation technologies. The widely used Global positioning system (GPS) and navigation technologiesare ineffective in indoor environments. The emergence of indoor positioning technologies came as a boon for the indoor. Indoor positioning using light signals have immensepotential to provide a reliable and more accurate solution to the indoor positioning systems.
Early detection of plant diseases can prevent crop failure. The Leaf wetness duration (LWD) that leads to fungal infections is a major concern among farmers. Using LWD as a parameter, researchers developed disease detection models with an Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled leaf wetness sensor (LWS) prototype fabricated on flexible substrates. Researchers tested the prototypes on medicinal plants. The prototype made comparatively accurate, precise, and early disease predictions.
