Self-calibration refers to the process by which a system or device automatically calibrates itself without the need for external assistance or intervention. This can include correcting for errors, adjusting parameters, and ensuring accurate and reliable performance over time. In the context of research, self-calibration is often used in fields such as engineering, electronics, and sensor technology to improve the accuracy and reliability of measurements and data collection. By implementing self-calibration techniques, researchers can reduce the need for manual calibration and ensure consistent and high-quality results.
