Sensors are devices that detect various physical, chemical, or biological quantities and convert them into processable signals for electronics. They’re vital as the link between the real world and electronic systems.
They serve different functions. In environmental sensing, they monitor temperature, humidity, and light for comfort, production, and energy – saving. For motion and position, acceleration, gyroscope, and position sensors are used in vehicles, electronics, and industrial settings. Pressure sensors measure barometric and other pressures for weather, flight, and safety purposes. In chemical and biological detection, gas and biological sensors ensure safety at home, monitor industrial emissions, and assist in medical applications.
