A variety of humidity sensors have been developed to address the problem of humidity measurement in instrumentation, agriculture and systems which are automatic. Various types of humidity sensors have been reviewed along with their mechanisms of humidity detection. Thin and thick film preparation processes are quite flexible. This flexibility provides advantages over other technologies. After comparing all the aspects of different humidity sensors, it has been observed that there are still some shortcomings left, which need to be removed to enhance the humidity sensing capability, recovery and response times of the sensor elements.

This paper reports on a nanocomposite synthesized by sol–gel procedure comprising graphene sheets with hollow spheres of titanium dioxide (G/HS-TiO2) with varying weight percentages of graphene for the purpose of humidity sensors. The surface morphology of the nanocomposite was characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The structural properties were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The response to 12–80% RH at room temperature exhibited sensitivity (S = 135). However, the relative humidity range of 12–90% at room temperature exhibited higher sensitivity (S = 557). Sensors fabricated using the proposed nanocomposite exhibited high sensitivity to humidity, high stability, rapid response times, and rapid recovery times with hysteresis error of less than 1.79%. These results demonstrate the outstanding potential of his material for the monitoring of atmospheric humidity. This study also sought to elucidate the mechanisms underlying humidity sensing performance.
