What is a sensor.  A sensor is a device that converts a real-world property (e.g. temperature) into data that a computer can process.  A sensor measures a specific property data and sends a signal to the computer. Usually this is an analogue signal so it needs to be converted into digital data which is used by the computer to process (usually incoming value is matched with a preset value) and perform various operations. This is done using by an Analogue-to- Digital Converter (ADC).  ADC takes an analogue signal as input and converts it to digital signal that is used by the computers and other digital devices for various purposes.  Sensors are used extensively in monitoring / measuring / data logging systems, and also in computer control systems.

Types of Sensors 1. Temperature Sensor 2. Pressure Sensor 3. Light Sensor 4. Infrared Sensor 5. Humidity Sensor 6. Gas Sensor

Temperature Sensor  A temperature sensor detects the temperature from its surroundings and produces a signal that is sent to the computer for processing.  Uses/Applications: 1. Used in electronic thermometers 2. Used in heat systems to control the temperature automatically

Pressure Sensor  When a pressure sensor is exposed to pressure then it generates signals that are sent to the computer for processing purpose.  Uses/Applications 1. It is used in automatic blood pressure monitoring device. 2. Used to control the pressure of gas or liquids in a chemical reaction vessel.

Light Sensor  A light sensor produces a signal that depends on the intensity of light falling on it. This signal is sent to the computer for processing.  Uses/Applications: 1. Used in cars to control the headlights automatically. 2. Used in streetlights to turn on/off automatically

Infrared Sensor  An infrared sensor produces a signal that depends on the level of invisible IR radiation falling on it.  All objects(unless they are extremely cold) emit significant IR radiation.  Applications: 1. Used in railway safety system 2. Heating & night visions 3. Flame detection

Humidity Sensor  A humidity/moisture sensor produces a signal that depends on the amount of water vapours in the atmosphere.  Applications: 1. Used in controlling automated irrigation systems 2. Used in controlling a heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system. 3. Used to maintain sufficient humidity in a greenhouse. 4. Can be used to measure humidity for weather forecasting.

Gas Sensor  A gas sensor produces a signal depending on the concentration of a particular gas or vapour.  Applications: 1. Use for an inflammable gas to monitor the atmosphere. 2. Used in process control of chemical industry. 3. Environmental Monitoring of air pollution.
