Abstract
A modular sensor system includes a plurality of varying types of sensors that provide multiple sensing measurands for sensing operations. A housing is generally associated with the varying types of sensors, such that the housing introduces media to be sensed by the sensors. An electrical interface can also be connected to the sensors, wherein the electrical interface permits a logical physical connection to be made to a selected sensor in order to maximize sensing sensitivity and provide a sensing repeatability and accurate sensor compensation thereof for the sensing operations.
