Engineers have found a new approach for combining data acquired wirelessly from a large number of sensors. The technique is based on considering the 'ensemble spectrum' of the sensors, which simply involves analyzing the radio signal received from all the sensors without synchronizing them to each other or separating their individual contributions.

Rapid, accessible and highly accurate detection of addictive substances such as opiates and cocaine is vital to reducing the adverse personal and societal impacts of addiction, something current drug detection systems can take too long to provide. However, on-site, real-time monitoring of abused drugs in a patient's system could alert clinicians before dangerous levels are reached, and such an approach may not be far away.
