Nature-Inspired Sensors presents and discusses the basic principles and latest developments in nature-inspired sensing and biosensing materials as well as the design and mechanisms for analyzing their potential in multifunctional sensing applications.

The book starts with a comprehensive review of certain fundamental mechanisms in different living creatures, including humans, animals, and plants. It presents and discusses ways for imitating various nature-inspired structural features and their functional properties, such as hierarchical, interlocked, porous, and bristle-like structures and hetero-layered brick-and-mortar structures.

It also highlights the utility of these structures and their properties for sensing functions, which include static coloration, self-cleaning, adhesive, underwater navigation and object detection, electric charge generation, and sensitive olfactory functions for detecting various substances. This is followed by an appraisal of accumulating knowledge and its translation from the laboratory to the point-of-care phase, using selective sensors as well as desktop and wearable artificial sensing devices, for example, electronic noses and electronic skins, in conjunction with AI-assisted data processing and decision-making in the targeted field of application.

In addition, the book offers an insight into the challenges of continuing the development of nature-inspired smart sensing and biosensing technology and their wider availability, which can be substantially improved. It is a valuable reference for graduates, undergraduates, researchers, and working professionals in the fields of chemistry, materials science, and biomedical and environmental science.

Haick, Hossam: - Hossam Haick, professor at the Technion, is an expert in the field of nanotechnology and smart sensors. He is the founder and leader of six European consortia and five start-up companies for developing advanced generations of nanosensors for the fourth industrial revolution and disease diagnosis. His research expertise includes nature-inspired chemical (flexible) sensors, electronic skin, nano-array devices for screening, diagnosis and monitoring of disease, breath analysis, volatile biomarkers, and molecular electronic devices. His studies in these fields have generated more than 52 patents, 280 publications in top-level journals, and one book. Prof. Haick is the recipient of more than 82 prizes and recognitions and on more than 42 ranking lists, including the world's 35 leading young scientists by MIT Magazine (2008), top-100 innovators in the world (2015-2018) by various international organizations
