The Internet of Things (IoT) is loaded with billions of sensors. It is likely that you have deployed a few of them yourself. Elektor's editorial and engineering teams are keenly aware of the importance of sensor technology, which is why we will present a free live webinar titled "Sensors and Measurement: The Future with Sensors, RF, and 5G" on Thursday, June 25, 2020, at 16.00 CEST. Industry thought leaders will share their ideas on these subjects and field questions from attendees. 
 

Webinar: Sensors & Measurement 

As a serious electronics designer, you probably work with sensor technology and measurement tools on a regular basis. Technicians use temperature sensors to monitor industrial applications. Engineers implement proximity sensors in countless aerospace systems and many industrial automation facilities. Designers incorporate RF sensors in many military and surveillance applications. And those are only a few examples. Several others will likely come to mind in the next few minutes. In Elektor's "Sensors and Measurement" webinar, Elektor Labs's Technical Manager Clemens Valens will moderate an informative discussion about sensor technology, RF solutions, and 5G with industry thought leaders, including Robert Lacoste (engineer/author, Robert Lacoste's the Darker Side: Practical Applications for Electronic Design Concepts, Elektor) and Stuart Cording (journalist, "Beyond the Razzle-Dazzle: 5G in Industrial Automation," Elektor Industry, July/August 2020). Webinar attendees can pitch questions during Valens's Q&A session at the end of the webinar.

Clemens Valens is the Technical Manager of Elektor Labs. He holds a BSc in Electronics and an MSc in Electronics and Information Technology. Valens started working for Elektor in 2008 as editor in chief of Elektor France, and he has also worked as an editor for Elektor UK/US and ElektorMagazine.com. He currently produces engineering tutorials and product reviews at Elektor.tv. In recent videos, Clemens covered the following topics and more: Arduino compiler optimizations, GitHub essentials, home automation, getting started with KiCad EDA, and several informative product reviews. 
 

Robert Lacoste is the Founder and CEO of Alciom, a France-based consulting and design house specialized in mixed-signal electronics: wireless and microwaves, antennas design and optimization, high-speed signal processing, analog front-ends, sensors, and more. He graduated from Paris’s Ecole Polytechnique and ENSEEIHT engineering school, and has 30 years of experience in electronics, real-time systems, and telecommunications. Lacoste's books, The Darker Side: Practical Applications for Electronic Design Concepts (in English) and Percer les mystères de l’électronique (in French), are available in the Elektor Store.

Stuart Cording is an engineer and journalist with more than 25 years of experience in the electronics industry. He has held positions at National Semiconductor, Texas Instruments, Microchip Technology, Atmel, iSYSTEM, and Publitek. Cording's article, "Beyond the Razzle-Dazzle: 5G in Industrial Automation," appears in Elektor Industry 2/2020.
