Abstract:
Technologies for multifunction sensor devices include a multifunction sensor having a pair of electrodes separated by a thin film polymer. The multifunction sensor is coupled to a nano-amplifier that receives a sensor signal and amplifies the sensor signal to generate an amplified sensor signal. A controller coupled to the nano-amplifier processes the amplified sensor signal based on the type of the multifunction sensor device to generate sensor data. The type of the multifunction sensor device may be a static charge sensor, a high-energy particle sensor, a microwave sensor, or an ultraviolet/X-ray sensor. The sensor data may be output, for example, to an external computing device via a serial link.
