Springer International Publishing AG, 2017. — 326 p. — (Smart Sensors, Measurement and Instrumentation. Volume 23) — ISBN: 9783319473215Sensors play a pivotal role in our everyday life. They gather data on environment, and information on weather, traffic congestion, air pollution, water pollution, etc. is obtained; they gather data on human body, and information on health, treatment or therapy outcomes is obtained; they gather data on objects, and information for monitoring and control of these objects is obtained; they gather data on subjects or objects functions, and information for better decisions, control and action is obtained. For instance, the weather information is used to choose adequate clothes, the battery level sensor permits smartphone power management optimization, and the level of blood glucose allows better healthcare management. Data collected through sensors enhance our lives and our connections to each other and with our environment, allow real-time monitoring of many phenomena around us, provide information about quality of products and services, improve the equipment control based on sensorized interfaces and contribute to increase knowledge on physical and chemical world.Determination of NOX and Soot Concentrations Using a Multi-wavelength Opacimeter
