Abstract:
The population of the world is aging. In Sweden alone, almost 20% of the population is 65 years or older. As people get older, problems with sleep disturbances and sleep quality tends to increase, as do the risks of falling injuries. In this thesis, methods for calculating sleep quality and if a person is about to leave a bed were devised. A bed sensor, measuring ballistocardiographical signals, was used to measure activity in bed and vital signs of the occupant. The Cole-Kripke algorithm, used to calculate sleep quality based on activity from a wrist worn sensor, was adapted to the bed sensor

Ionomeric polymer transducers (IPTs) are an exciting new class of smart materials that can serve a dual purpose in engineering or biomedical applications as sensors or actuators. Most commonly they are used for mechanical actuation, as they have the ability to generate large bending strains and moderate stress under low applied voltages. Although the actuation capabilities of IPTs have been extensively studied, the sensing capabilities of these transducers have yet to be fully explored.

Abstract:
A novel line of integrated-optic-based chemical sensors was developed. The sensors are based on modification of the optical cavity of a single-mode semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) laser. A sensitive layer changes its refractive index in presence of a specific chemical, thus changing the effective refractive index of the section and the optical length of the cavity. This results in laser frequency shift measured either directly or by heterodyne detection using a reference laser as the second source. It is shown that DBR-laser-based sensors can achieve in principle a much higher

Abstract:
Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) have a large number of applications and the majority of them are in the sensor and actuator fields targeted to satisfy market needs. Recently, researchers have focused on optimizing and improving device functions, sensitivity, power consumption, etc. However, SAW actuators and sensors still cannot replace their conventional counterparts in some mechanical and biomedical areas, such as actuators for liquid pumping under microfluidic channels and sensors for real-time cell culture monitoring. The two objectives of this dissertation are to explore the potential of pi
