Initial Experiments of Reconfigurable Sensor Adapted by Evolution

Missions to planets with unknown environmental condition, have recently been approached with new ideas, such as use of biology-inspired mechanisms for hardware sensor adaptation. In this paper we describe the initial development of efficient mechanisms for smart sensing which will lead to higher quality data. The self-reconfigurable pre-processing analog electronics is based on evolvable hardware.
