SENSO
R
 A Sensor is a device that receives and response to a signal.
A Sensors sensitivity indicates how much the sensors output changes when the measured
quantity changes.
Example :You can say that our skin ,ears ,eyes and noise are also a sensor because they can
sense touch , heat, light, noise and smell.
 For accuracy , most of the sensors are calibrated against some known standards..
Types of sensors
USE
S
Sensors are used in daily every day objects such as touch sensitive elevator and lamps which
dim or brighten by touching the base.
There are innumerable applications of this technology of which most of the people are not
aware.
 It applications include cars, machines, aerospace ,medicines ,manfracturing and robotics
Sensor taps
 Automatic Sensor is easy
to install and is simple to
use as well.
 As you place your hand
under the opening of the
tap, the water will flow
automatically and when
we remove ur hand the
water flow will stop.
 This happens due to inbuilt
of sensors in the tap
  Its starts running and stops automatically as
senses
it the presence or absence of the
AUTOMATIC person.
STAIRS
Infrared sensors
 THESE INFRARED SENSORS ARE USED IN  THESE INFRARED SENSORS ARE
SMART DEVICES… ALSO USED IN HOTELS…
Photo
electric
sensor
o These are used in street lights
and automatic stairs.
o The street lights automatically
turns on and off as
the Sunrisers and sunsets
o This is implemented by using photo
electric effect .
o The street lights automatically
turns on and off on the basis of
darkness measured by a
sensor
TOUCH
SENSOR
 Touch Sensor work similar to
a switch.

 When they are subjected to

touch,pressure or force they
get activated and acts as a
closed switch..

 When the pressure or contact

is removed they act as an open
switch..
Advantages of sensors
 It avoids a lot of wiring
 It can accommodate new devices at any time
 It is flexible to go through physical partitions
 It can accessed through a centralized monitor
 Sensors such as PIR detectors are relatively cheap if using wired versions
