Riassunto:

Global issues such as climate change, clean water, sustainability, waste management, and energy use have caused many engineers to re-think existing approaches to engineering design. Control systems in green engineering designs have led to products that minimize pollution, reduce the risk to human health, and improve the environment. An example is the use of wireless measurements on a robotic-controlled mobile sensing platform that measure key environmental parameters in a rain forest.
