چکیده
The focus of this work would be to exploit the vapor detection technology developed recently at Caitech that fonus the basis for a low power, simple "electronic nose", In this work we have integrated the sensors, signal preprocessing, signal processing, and data analysis functions into a single, low power, low cost, nnos~ chip". Such a device could be implantable covertly or overtly onto suspect sites, deployable through remote delivery methods, worn by soldiers for CW alerts and in principle for IFF or military/nonmilitary identification purposes, and for other areas of national security where low power, lightweight, small, chemical sensing is of importance.

TCAD Modeling of Devices for Quanta Image Sensors
The Quanta Image Sensor (QIS) is a possible 3 generation image sensor. A QIS consists of a large array of photodetectors (perhaps a billion) that are capable of sensing a single photoelectron with high SNR. Such a binary output photodetector is called a “jot”. It requires small size (e.g. 500 nm pitch), high quantum efficiency, and very low readout noise (e.g. <0.2 electrons rms). A key require...

متن کاملAssessing the ability to predict human percepts of odor quality from the detector responses of a conducting polymer composite-based electronic nose
The responses of a conducting polymer composite `̀ electronic nose'' detector array were used to predict human perceptual descriptors of odor quality for a selected test set of analytes. The single-component odorants investigated in this work included molecules that are chemically quite distinct from each other, as well as molecules that are chemically similar to each other but which are perceiv...
متن کاملComparison of odor detection thresholds and odor discriminablities of a conducting polymer composite electronic nose versus mammalian olfaction
Response data from an array of conducting polymer composite vapor detectors that form an electronic nose were collected for the purpose of comparing selected, quantitatively measurable, phenomena in odor detection and classi®cation to the olfactory characteristics of monkeys and humans. Odor detection thresholds and discriminability between structurally similar pairs of odorants were the two pr...
متن کاملClassifying Patterns of Visual Motion - a Neuromorphic Approach
We report a system that classifies and can learn to classify patterns of visual motion on-line. The complete system is described by the dynamics of its physical network architectures. The combination of the following properties makes the system novel: Firstly, the front-end of the system consists of an aVLSI optical flow chip that collectively computes 2-D global visual motion in real-time [1]....
