 INTRODUCTION

• SENSORS ARE THE DEVICES THAT RESPONDS TO A

PHYSICAL STIMULUS HEAT, LIGHT, SOUND, PRESSURE,
MAGNETISM, MOTION, ETC. AND CONVERT THAT INTO AN
ELECTRICAL SIGNAL
 WHAT IS SMART SENSOR

 A sensor producing an electrical output when combined with interfacing

electronic circuits is known as “Smart Sensor“
 It is a combination of both sensor and actuator.
 The smart sensor will have intelligent features and some electronics that can
perform:
• Data conversion
• Bi-directional Communication
• Take a decision
• Perform Logical operations
 WORKING
 Sensors capture data from preferred environments and transform
their physical properties into measurable electrical signals.

 EXAMPLE : TEMPERATURE SENSOR IN IOT ENVIRONMENT

 TEMPERATURE SESNOR CAN MONITOR AND MEASURE THE

TEMPERATURE OF A MACHINE IN AN INDUSTRIAL SETTING AND
ALERT AN OPERATOR OR EMERGENCY SHUT-OFF SYSTEM IF THE
MACHINE OVERHEATS
 SMART SENSOR FUNCTIONS

 SMART SENSOR CARRIES FOUR

FUNCTIONALITIES

 MEASUREMENT (DIAGNOSIS)
 CONFIGURATION
 VERIFICATION
 COMMUNICATION
 APPLICATION

 INDUSTRIAL
 ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING
 FINGERPRINT RECOGNIZATION
 TRAFFIC MONITORING AND CONTROLLING.
 BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS
 ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES
 ADVANTAGES
• THE SMART SENSOR TAKES OVER
THE CONDITIONING AND CONTROL
OF THE SENSOR SIGNAL, REDUCING
THE LOAD ON THE CENTRAL
CONTROL SYSTEM, ALLOWING
FASTER SYSTEM OPERATION.
• LOW COST OF MAINTENANCE, EASE
OF PROGRAMMING
• HIGH PERFORMANCE
• INDIVIDUAL CONTROLLERS CAN
MONITOR AND CONTROL MORE
THAN ONE
 DISADVANTAGES
• THE SMART SENSOR CONSISTS OF BOTH
ACTUATORS & SENSORS, SO IT IS MORE
COMPLEX THAN OTHER SIMPLE
SENSORS.
• THE COMPLEXITY IS MUCH HIGHER IN
THE WIRED SMART SENSORS, AS A
CONSEQUENCE THE COSTS ARE ALSO
HIGHER
• SENSOR CALIBRATION HAS TO BE
MANAGED BY AN EXTERNAL
PROCESSOR.
• PREDEFINED EMBEDDED FUNCTIONS
HAVE TO BE GIVEN DURING THE DESIGN
OF THE SMART SENSOR.
