Smart Sensors

Introduction
• The Sensors are devices that responds to a physical stimulus
heat, light, sound, pressure, magnetism, motion, etc , and
convert that into an electrical signal.
• They perform an input function
• The Devices which perform an output function are generally
called Actuators and are used to control. some external
device, for example movement.
• Both sensors and actuators are collectively known as
Transducers. Transducers are devices used to convert energy
of one kind into energy of another kind.
