Sensors: The Whole Picture Part Two - business sectors
It is meaningful to analyse sensors in terms of industries. For example, the miniaturised multi-sensor platforms of mobile phones and smart watches in the consumer electronics industry have much in common with those in the broader concepts of the Internet of Things which is largely focussed on the healthcare, energy and manufacturing sectors.

An introduction to water treatment and the sensors in "Digital Water"
Water treatment takes sources of water from reservoirs, lakes and rivers, and transforms it into a commodity which can be safely drunk. Currently over 70% of the world's population have access to safe drinking water. This premium article discusses the different stages of water treatment and the opportunities that "Digital Water" or "Smart water" can bring to this industry.

Technologies used in the Water Treatment & Water Recycling Industries
With water becoming a more scarce resource, it is important to try to reuse water where possible. The UK environment agency said in 2019 that with a combination of population growth and climate change the UK could have severe water shortages in the next 20-25 years.
