(AMA Service: Wunstorf, Germany) -- The SENSOR+TEST trade fair, scheduled for June 7–9, 2011, in Nürnberg, Germany, is the world’s leading forum for sensors, measuring, and testing. From simple microsensors to complex test rigs, from ready-to-use components to individualized services, the SENSOR+TEST will cover the entire spectrum of measuring and testing system expertise in an international, comprehensive and cross-industry form.

Parallel to the trade fair, the SENSOR+TEST conferences take place every two years. Under one umbrella, the three international conferences, SENSOR, OPTO, and IRS², provide a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in scientific research and development in the fields of sensor, measuring, and testing technology.

The SENSOR+TEST Conferences 2011 will start jointly on the first day of the fair with an opening lecture by Ernst Göbel, Ph.D., president of the National Metrology Institute in Braunschweig, on the subject of “Fundamental Constants and the New International System of Units (SI).”
