Sensors (general)
A sensor is a device that measures a physical quantity and converts it into a signal which can be read by an observer or by an instrument.
Applications include cars, machines, aerospace, medicine, manufacturing and robotics.
Common types of Sensors
Temperature sensors are commonly used in automatic washing machines, automatic cookers, air conditioning controllers, central heating controllers, computer-controlled greenhouses, scientific experiments and environmental monitoring.
Pressure sensors are used in Burglar alarms, automatic washing machines, robotics, production line control, scientific experiments and environmental monitoring.
Light sensors are used in computer controlled greenhouses, burglar alarm systems, robotics, production line control, scientific experiments and environmental monitoring
