They always sound so high tech that we hardly notice that our day-to-day lives always involve the use of sensors. From IR sensors in TV remotes to passive infrared sensors on automatic doors or LDRs for outdoor and street lightings, sensors are everywhere. Sensors detect changes, acknowledge those changes, and produce outputs from those changes. They detect and measure qualities such as light, temperature, sound, and other types of output from the environment.

SENSOR
A Sensor is an input device which provides an output
(signal) with respect to a specific physical quantity (input).
The major types of sensors are:
INFRARED
SENSOR

3. Speed
Sensors
This type of sensor is
typically used to
synchronize the speed of
multiple motors. One of
the motors is a main
motor acting as a
transmitter while the
remaining motors act as
receivers.
Applications
• ABS (Anti Lock Braking System)
• Turbocharger
• Steam Turbine
• Traction Control
• Conveyor Belts

4. Temperature
Sensors
Temperature sensors
measure temperature
using an electrical signal.
Typically, these sensors are
used for controlling the
temperature of devices in
industrial applications.
Applications
• Radiator Overheating
• Battery Chargers
• Air Conditioning Leakage
Detector
• Hot Air Balloons

5. Ultrasonic
Sensors
Ultrasonic sensors are
used to measure the
distance of objects. They
send out sound waves
and interpret how long it
takes for the echoes
produced to bounce back
and be received by the
same sensor.
Applications
• Tank level Measurement
• Distance Measurement
• Robotic Sensing

6. Infrared
Sensors
PIR sensors measure
infrared light radiation
emitted from objects. This
type of sensor is split into
two parts, both parts
sensitive to infrared
radiation.
Applications
• Night Vision Devices
• Infrared Tracking
• Hyperspectral Imaging
• Obstacle Detection
