Apart from the known advantages of immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electrical inertness, optical-based humidity sensors are typically more sensitive and offer a broader range of capabilities tailored for different applications (e., colorimetric, point . Sensors based on optical fibers present several advantages over electronic sensors and great research efforts have been made in recent years in this field. The present paper reports the current trends of optical fiber humidity sensors. The evolution of optical structures developed towards humidity. Fiber-optic humidity sensors offer accurate, real-time environmental monitoring, with immunity to EMI, high sensitivity, and IoT integration. Humidity plays a crucial role in various industries, including agriculture, healthcare, food processing, and electronics manufacturing. These sensors offer unparalleled accuracy, reliability, and durability, making them ideal for a. • The heart is the tracker • Silicon sensors measure position of particles • Radiations cause deterioration and heat generation in silicon • Cooling at T< 0 ˚C is needed • The tracker has to be kept dry to avoid condensation CONSTANT THERMAL AND HYGROMETRIC CONTROL OF THE AIR IS MANDATORY! •ATLAS.
