Sensors and sensor systems

Internet of Things (IoT) and Industry 4.0 require large numbers of small, accurate, energy-efficient sensors. At the same time, many applications require autonomous systems that can operate in hard-to-reach environments without the need for battery changes or power cables. Developing the right sensor solution requires expertise in areas such as MEMS technology, signal processing, AI analysis and energy harvesting, as well as the ability to integrate all these elements into functioning systems.

RISE can support you throughout the entire process of developing sensors and sensor systems, from needs analysis to finished product. As an independent partner, we will identify the optimal technical solution, regardless of the type of sensor or the application. We offer modelling and simulation for concept validation, as well as prototyping in our laboratories and performance verification. Thanks to Sweden's broadest interdisciplinary expertise in this field, we can combine sensor technology with system design, electronics, and data analysis to deliver comprehensive solutions.
