Nature-Inspired Sensors

Captivating and cutting-edge, Nature-Inspired Sensors by Hossam Haick bridges biology and engineering to redefine how we detect the world around us. This compelling volume draws on principles from natural sensing systems—olfaction, mechanoreception, and cellular chemoreceptors—and translates them into practical designs for modern sensors.

Discover a clear, richly illustrated exploration of biomimetic approaches, nanotechnology-enabled sensing materials, and the development of electronic noses, wearable detectors, and point-of-care diagnostic platforms. Real-world applications are highlighted across medical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, food safety, and industrial process control, showing how nature-inspired designs improve sensitivity, selectivity, and energy efficiency.

Engineered for researchers, graduate students, R&D engineers, and technology leaders, this book provides both the theoretical foundations and translational examples needed to move from lab prototypes to market-ready devices. Insightful case studies and comparative analyses help readers evaluate technologies, anticipate regulatory challenges, and identify commercial opportunities.

Rooted in international research with strong ties to innovations emerging from Israel and global labs, the book is a practical resource for anyone working on sensors, biosensing, and nanomaterials. Whether you’re building the next-generation electronic nose or designing wearable health monitors, Nature-Inspired Sensors equips you with strategies to innovate confidently.
