The IEEE Sensor Council view that there is value in having vibrant conferences by providing opportunities for interchange between the industrial, the academic and government communities in sensors, including the following:
- Opportunities to highlight selected differentiating technology for cutting-edge products,
- Exposure to technical advances across applications through joint topical sessions of peer-reviewed papers,
- Industrial track highlighting peer company presentations in the program,
- Industry-oriented sessions and workshops to discuss future technology trends and produce academic engagement,
- Opportunities for interaction between component and system experts in question time at presentations and at the vibrant poster and demonstration sessions,
- Opportunities for networking during breaks, shared meals, and receptions,
- Opportunities to listen to student research and to interact face-to-face,
- Industrial booths in shared space with posters and refreshment breaks.
The conference provides an opportunity for shaping the sensor future and meeting the upcoming graduates who will shape it.
