== Future developments ==

{{outdated section|date=November 2019}}

As an inter-disciplinary branch of engineering, future developments in instrumentation and control engineering draw from discoveries and inventions from many sources. Engineers in the field are developing products like intelligent sensors, smart [[transducer]]s, and [[microelectromechanical systems]]. [[Bluetooth]] is a technology that has already been developed in part due to instrumentation and control engineering. Bhujanga Rao, Professor of Instrumentation Engineering at [[Andhra University]], states that as the industrial demand for [[instrumentation and control engineering]] grows, departments specializing in instrumentation and control engineering will be included in almost every company in the [[process industry]] or [[manufacturing]] industry. He also says that "automation is the core job of instrumentation and control engineers. Hence, the demand for instrumentation will always be there."<ref>[http://www.thehindu.com/features/education/instrumentation-engineering-in-demand/article3320296.ece "Instrumentation engineering in demand"], ''The Hindu'', April 16, 2012</ref>
