Force Sensors:

Force sensors are devices that measure the force applied to them, either
through direct contact or pressure. These sensors are designed to quantify the
amount of force or pressure exerted on their surface. It is also used in various
applications such as industrial automation, robotics, medical devices, and
automotive systems.
Digital Sensors:
Digital sensors are electronic devices that detect and respond to specific inputs,
converting them into digital signals. In this type of detecting sensors are utilized
to capture and measure the presence of infrared light. These sensors play a
crucial role in applications like temperature sensing, motion detection, and
security systems.
Hall Effect Sensor:
A Hall effect sensor is a type of sensor that can detect the presence of a
magnetic field. These sensors operate based on the Hall effect, which generates
a voltage difference when exposed to a magnetic field. Hall effect sensors are
commonly used in proximity sensing, positioning, speed measurement, and
current sensing applications.
Magnetometer:
A magnetometer is a sensor specifically designed to measure magnetic fields. It
can determine the strength, direction, and orientation of a magnetic field in its
vicinity. Magnetometers find applications in navigation, geological surveys,
metal detection, and in electronic devices like smartphones for compass
functionality. These sensors play critical roles in various industries and
technologies, enabling the measurement and detection of different physical
phenomena for diverse applications.
