Introduction
MLRS

Sensors have a very wide range, and there are many types, but
fundamentally, sensors are devices that detect the feature quantity of a
measurement object and convert this quantity into a readable signal,
which is displayed on an instrument. And sensing technology, simply
put, is a technology that uses sensors to acquire information by
detecting the physical, chemical, or biological property quantities and
convert them into readable signal.

Objective of the Work
MLRS

 Sensors, sometimes referred to as ”transducers”.

 It help us interact with the world around us through an electrical


or a mechanical device.

 The technology measures or detects some property of the


environment or changes to that property over time.

What is sensor ?
MLRS

 A device which detects or measures a physical property and records,



indicates, or otherwise responds to it

 one of the first temperature sensors based on copper resistor


developed in the late 1800s, there has been rapid advancement
in sensor technologies.

 Nowadays, even if you look around you, you’ll see different


forms of sensors everywhere. Smartphones, laptops, cars,
microwave ovens

MLRS


Input: light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure or any number of other environmental phenomena.

Sensor: a device that detects and responds to some type of input from the physical environment.

Signal conditioning unit: A signal conditioner is a device that converts one type of electronic signal
into a another type of signal.

Output:a signal that is converted to a human-readable display at the sensor location or transmitted
electronically over a network for reading or further processing.

Conclusion
MLRS

 Sensing technologies were discussed from the aspects of sensor


structure, sensor fabrication, and signal processing capabilities, and
it was found that sensing technologies were rapidly developed in
terms of miniaturization, versatilization and performance
enhancement in accuracy, responsiveness, reliability, resilience, and
costeffectiveness.

Department of ECE 10
Future scope
MLRS

 The development trends in sensor technology result from market-


economical aspects, general customer requests, and specifi
requirements of the target applications.

Costs reductions and more improvement in accuracy and


speed will be achieved in the future using measurement methods
with higher performance, new manufacturing technologies, and
sophisticated signal processing methods.
