Background
The Centre for Intelligent Monitoring Systems (CIMS) is an internationally renowned applied research and development centre, based in the University of Liverpool. It builds on combined strengths in sensor technology, software development, telemetry and systems integration, together with its unique approach to sensor systems.
CIMS translates research into working, pre-commercial, prototype sensor systems to develop and improve a wide range of applications identified by our industrial partners. These applications are in industrial processing, healthcare, environment and energy sectors. The purpose of these sensor systems is multi-fold, including applications in quality assurance, assistive living, particulate detection and condition monitoring.
