Configurable sensing systems and methods for configuration

A signal processing system, comprising;

• a plurality of processing modules configured to process raw sensor data from a sensor to output processed sensor data;
• a state module for each processing module operative to cause a respective processing module to receive and/or process the sensor data;
• and
• a control module configured to receive a coded bitstring and activate or deactivate a predefined set of state modules based on the coded bitstring to control which processing modules process the sensor data and/or an order of processing.

A method for signal processing, comprising:

• creating a coded bitstring having a plurality of discrete bits, each discrete bit or the plurality of discrete bits associated with a plurality processing modules;
• sending the coded bitstring to a control module to control which processing modules process sensor data and/or in which order;
• selecting processing modules and/or an order thereof to process sensor data using the control module based on the coded bitstring;
• and
• processing sensor data using the processing modules in accordance with the coded bitstring to output processed data.
