Flow Sensor

Flow sensors are devices that measure the rate, direction, and properties of fluid flow, with applications ranging from industrial process control to environmental monitoring and autonomous navigation. Current research focuses on improving sensor accuracy and efficiency through techniques like convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for data analysis and reinforcement learning for autonomous navigation strategies, as well as exploring novel sensor designs inspired by biological systems (e.g., whiskers, fish). These advancements are crucial for enhancing precision in various fields, from optimizing aircraft engine performance and improving building ventilation systems to enabling more robust and efficient autonomous vehicles in challenging environments.
