"Pressure, Force, Motion, and Humidity Sensors" can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5342, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree.
This is our third course in our specialization on Embedding Sensor and Motors. To get the most out of this course, you should first take our first course entitled Sensors and Sensor Circuits. Our first course gives you a tutorial on how to use the hardware and software development kit we have chosen for the lab exercises. This third course assumes that you already know how to use the kit.
After taking this course, you will be able to:
● Understand how to specify the proper pressure, force, strain, position, motion, acceleration, occupancy, and humidity sensors for taking real-time process data.
● Implement these sensors into an embedded system in both hardware and software.
● Add the sensor and sensor interface into a microprocessor based development kit.
● Create hardware and firmware to process sensor signals and feed data to a microprocessor for further evaluation.
In this course you will build the circuit from Video 7 (Lab Exercise on strain gauges), Module 2 (Force and Strain Sensors and Touch Screens), and use it to make screen shots of the timing of the switch. If you haven't already wired up the system and written all the software per the instructions of Video 7, please do so now.
This course includes specific hardware and software requirements. Please review the FAQ below for complete details.

Overall the teaching content is good.
But I have to point out that the Quiz and Homework assignments are not carefully designed, that frequently found problem either the question is wrong, or belive is the registered "correct answer" is wrong. It can cause lots of confusion and frustration. It seems not only noticed by me but many similar posts in the forum, and none of the issue has been answered and addressed!

This course is full of great, useful information.
HOWEVER, the course overall is full of typos and a few mistakes that cause confusion. The lab is not very well structured and leaves a lot up to the student to figure out. Likely many students never figure it out.
There are some issues in getting some of the lab components in a timely manner, so I'd order them asap.
I'd still recommend the course, but I'd hope these get cleaned up to help future students.

Great information, both the lecture and external reference.
However, the quiz needs some corrections for the mistaken typo. It causes a lot of troubles to other students. Lab assignment needs to be more specific and clearer.

Important sensors are dealt with in this 3rd course. You will learn about physical effects (Peltier effect, piezoelectric effect), accelerometers. You will find one of those in many systems. Many readings.
