At present, biometric technology is very useful & important because they are very effective, precise & provides more safety. Present smartphones comprise a fingerprint sensor to validate the consumer while some high-end smartphones provide extra Biometric Sensors like facial recognition & iris scanners. This technology is mainly used in government & private sectors to confirm an identity of a person. Because every person has some unique features like both behavioral & … [Read more...]

In the industrial sector, the measurement of water or gas flow is a very significant process for controlling different processes as well as for the machinery for the best levels of performance & efficiency. So, flow can be defined as the volume (or) area for each unit time at which point a substance moves throughout a specified cross-section & is characterized at precise pressures & temperatures. The sensor used to measure flow is known as a flow sensor. So, flow measurement is … [Read more...]

At present, door sensors are installed on the doors and windows for home security purposes. These sensors allow you to know once somebody has opened/closed a door. Many house owners utilize door sensors to guard entrances. However, these sensors work on any type of door. Actually door sensors are so adaptable, so they are becoming very popular within activity triggers within smart home design. This article discusses an overview of a door sensor – working with applications What is Door … [Read more...]

PIR sensors are everywhere because it is almost impossible to visualize without them every day in modern life. These sensors are less costly, very simple to utilize, and consistent, so applicable in door openings, security alarms, vending machines, automatic lighting switches, lift lobbies, and many more. Since these sensors are designed with many benefits they have been used in different electronic projects related to Raspberry Pi & Arduino. All these readily available resources, it has … [Read more...]

The small board with an electret mic (microphone) and some processing circuit that receives the acoustic signals/sound traveling through the free space/air and converts them into electrical signals is a sound sensor. The output of the sound sensor can be analog or digital output. It is very easy to use, cost-effective, low power, compatible with standard controls and digital/analog ICs. It is easy to integrate logic modules into sensor inputs, and requires a minimum number of external … [Read more...]

In nanotechnology, the nanosensor is used as a sensing device to measure/detect/sense the chemical and physical properties of matter or nanoparticles at the nanoscale of less than 100 nm. These are used for changing the applications and properties of the materials. These are nanodevices that observe physical quantities and convert them into signals that can be detected and analyzed. Nanosensors are used in medicine, pollution control, pathogen detection, and process monitoring in … [Read more...]

Sensors are the devices or modules or subsystems that detects and collects the data from the changes in physical parameter or environment and provides the electrical information to the systems to transmission systems, measurement systems, processors, electronics, medical equipment, etc. Among the various sensors, the position sensors are most widely used in different applications with different technologies and sensing principles. With the improving technology, the position sensors are available … [Read more...]

Magnetic sensors are the sensors that convert the change/ magnitude of a magnetic field into an electrical signal. The Earth's magnetic field or the magnetic field referred to as magnetism, is a well-known but invisible phenomenon. Magnetic sensors convert invisible magnetic fields into electrical signals and help to have visible effects. They were designed decades ago as a sensor using the electromagnetic induction effect and has expanded into applications in the magneto-resistance effect, … [Read more...]

Generally, automobiles (especially 2-wheeler and 4-wheeler vehicles) and security monitoring systems are equipped with multiple sensors that constantly monitor their operation and condition. Some sensors measure air, oxygen, and temperature, while others, such as knock sensors, measure vibration and noise levels in the vehicle's engine and security monitor systems. Knock sensors, on the other hand, have a much wider range of applications and are also known as piezoelectric sensors Or vibration … [Read more...]
