"IEEE Sensors Alert" is a new service 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.
Road potholes pose significant risks to road safety and infrastructure. POT-YOLO is a novel real-time detection system combining edge segmentation with the You Look Only Once (YOLOv8) architecture. This innovative approach improves pothole localization by accurately identifying their contours. POT-YOLO demonstrates exceptional performance, ensuring accurate and efficient detection even in challenging conditions. Its real-time capabilities allow for deployment on edge devices, facilitating proactive maintenance and improving road safety.
The use of sensors in the application world has drastically improved the human life. Sensors have reduced the time required to study events from hours, to a few seconds or minutes. Nowadays sensing systems are being used in gas sensing, environmental monitoring, as well as the food industry. Monitoring of physiological parameters is being done through Wearable Flexible Sensors (WFS). Tremendous scientific research is going on to develop sensors with better sustainability and sensitivity and to overcome challenges regarding handling of the generated data, comfort of the person concerned, and the power consumed by the devices. Better manufacturing techniques will help develop newer sensors encompassing all income categories in the near future.
