In this tutorial, I have covered 20 different types of sensors with their uses. Every sensor has its own features and functionalities. They can be used for a specific purpose. For the handheld or wireless-basedelectrical and electronics project, various types of sensors are used. Also, sensors...
Recently, sensors that can imitate human skin have received extensive attention. Capacitive sensors have a simple structure, low loss, no temperature drift, and other excellent properties, and can be applied in the fields of robotics, human-machine interactions, medical care, and health monitoring....
There are different types of pressure sensors that are classified according to their type of pressures such as high or low pressure and type of measurements. MEMS pressure sensors play an essential role in many fields of defense, medical, industrial, Beverage Machines, Washing Machines, aerospace a...
In process control, there are two types of sensors as mentioned below:Active and Passive SensorsPassive sensor requires an external source of power to work. For e.g. a thermistor, Light resistor, strain gauge, etc. While an active sensor doesn’t require any external source of power. For e...
The Global Hawk drone is equipped with a variety of sensors that allow it to gather intelligence information from high-altitude locations. The Global Hawk drone is currently deployed in Afghanistan and the Middle East. The Reaper Drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by General Atom...
sensors: generates the implementation of every existent sensor models. compose: meta-model composition. Generates a composition of models from the passed models in the repository's root, namedmodel.xml. It expects one or more models to make a composition from, in atype/subtypeortype/subtype/mode...
Types of Optical Sensors There are different kinds of optical sensors, the most common types which we have been using in our real world applications as given below. Photoconductive devices used to measure the resistance by converting a change of incident light into a change of resistance. ...
The mobile robot has onboard intelligence and is equipped with an integrated myRIO device, actuators, sensors, and a rechargeable battery. A point-to-point path planning algorithm with a fifth-order timing law is implemented with three levels of control to achieve the robot's required speed and...
I visited Wayve’s headquarters in London to check out the company’s new Maxus e9 van parked beside its existing fleet of Jaguar I-PACE cars. The van is fitted with the same six webcam-sized sensors as the cars, but they are positioned higher and at different angles. This means that ...
As shown in Figure 3, this work designed an avionics system that includes a microprocessor, GPS, and various sensors. View Download Figure 3 (Color online) Diagram of the electronic avionics network. An STM32F4 chip is utilized as the microprocessor to communicate with a state-of-the-art ...
