Key Features Include:
a[ Extensive use of worked examples based on sensors that the author has developed or worked on during the past 28 years.
a[ Examples are featured that illustrate the process of designing a sensor for a particular application, ranging from such diverse topics as the design of a ship-borne fire control radar to a UAV based lidar scanner to detect locust swarms.
a[ For a broader appeal, complicated mathematical derivations are avoided unless absolutely necessary, and electronic details of the sensors are limited to block diagram and algorithm level.
a[ There are 572 figures of which about 20% are photographs, the remainder drawings with 25 tables.
