Smart- phones, as the most popular state-of-art mobile device, have remarkable potential for sensing applications. A growing set of physical-co-chemical sensors have been embedded; these include accelerometers, microphones, cameras, gyroscopes, and GPS units to access and perform data analysis. In this review, we discuss recent work focusing on smartphone sensing including representative electromag- netic, audio frequency, optical, and electrochemical sen- sors. The development of these capabilities will lead to more compact, lightweight, cost-effective, flexible, and durable devices in terms of their performances.展开更多
