Sensors and Sensor Systems
Volume 20, Number 2 (April–June 1999)

The cover of this issue illustrates the perception of the world through human senses. Many phenomena, however, demand aiding and going beyond the limits of those senses. Various techniques to achieve this goal are the subject of the present issue.
