Abstract

Abstract: We have seen the significant influence of the information revolution brought about by optoelectronic sensing technologies on human civilization over the last few decades, especially in all aspects of big data, cloud servers, closed-loop systems, smart internet of things (IoT) gateway, artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and the metaverse. Undeniably, recent developments have accelerated the advent of the AI and IoT era. Herein, this review presented an overview of the progress, applications, and prospects of AI optoelectronic sensing technology. Firstly, inorganic semiconductors, organic optoelectronic materials, 2D materials, and other nanomaterials employed in optoelectronic sensing technologies are generalized systematically. Then, the development status quo of optoelectronic sensing technology is discussed deeply. Next, several application scenarios related to optoelectronic sensing technology are reviewed, demonstrating the great development and prosperity of intelligent application systems. Last, the future development trends of AI optoelectronic sensing technology are portrayed, that is, toward all-weather, versatile, and intelligent systems in the age of AI/IoT.
