Computer control
- Sound sensor switch
Microphon will detect sound when we clap our hands. This microphone will change
the sound vibration of our clapping hands and turn it into electrical signal.
- Touchscreen
The screen resistive system is coated with a metallic thin film that is conductive and
resistive to electrical signals. When a touch occurs, both layers will be forced to
physically contact each other. The effect is that the conductive layer is going to
change the electric currents as a reaction of a touch event. This change of reference
current value is then reported to the controller for further processing.
- Smart projector
The way it works is so easy, with a projection you can touch many command buttons
with projected images on the field you specify
Computer monitoring
- Teleseimometer
This is the modern broadband seismograph, can record a very broad range of
frequencies. It consists of a small "proof mass", confined by electrical forces, driven
by sophisticated electronics. As the earth moves, the electronics attempt to hold the
mass steady through a feedback circuit. The amount of force necessary to achieve
this is then recorded.
- Speedometer
The working principle of the speedometer is magnetic induction. In the tire wheel
there is a small wheel that sends translations to the magnet on the speedometer. This
is what causes the speedometer to show the value of speed
- Radar
As already known radar uses the principle of radio wave emission in the form of
'microwave band'. The pulses generated by the transmitter unit are transmitted to the
antenna through an electronic transmit switch (T / R electronic switch)
Computer control and monitoring
- autopilot car
The working principle of a autopilot car is that has a laser sensor. The laser will
detect the white line at the curb and the middle of the road as a car order guide car
on the right track. The laser sensors also detect a barrier and also other vehicles that
are in front and back of the car and will do braking slowly based on the distance and
speed the car is against objects that are in front of it so as to enable it to avoid
accidents or
Crash
- Fire Sprinkler
Fire springkle works when the detector is broken because it has reached a certain
temperature point, the material inside the tube expands because of the heat then from
the compressive force the tube will break the glass that protects the outside of the
tube and remove the media(air/ gas/ water) to extinguish the fire.
- Airbag
Airbag works when a hard collision is detected, the car sensor directly sends the
signal so that airbags expands.
