Sensor Direction
A sensor, in the broadest definition, is a device, module, machine or subsystem that has the purpose of detecting events or changes in its
environment and sending the
information to other electronics, often a computer processor. As in most devices, a sensor is often used.
Sensors are used in everyday objects such as touch-sensitive elevator buttons (tactile sensor) and lamps that dim or shine through touching the base, in addition to countless applications that most people are never aware of. In addition, analog
sensors such as potentiometers and force-sensing resistors continue to be widely used. Applications include manufacturing and machinery, aviation and aerospace, automobiles, medicine,
robotics and many other aspects of our daily lives. There is a wide range of other sensors, which measure materials' chemical & physical properties.
