What is a sensor?
Sensor
A sensor is a device or element that collects information on an
object and converts it to a signal that can be processed by a
machine.
Geomagnetic sensor
Geomagnetic sensors can determine direction by detecting the
geomagnetic field.
Pulse sensor
ROHM is developing an optical transmission type pulse sensor.
Barometric pressure sensor
A barometric pressure sensor is a sensor that detects atmospheric
pressure.
Accelerometer sensor
Accelerometer sensors are ICs that measure acceleration, which is
the change in speed per unit time.
Current Sensor
A sensor that measures the current flowing in a circuit is called a
current sensor.
Color Sensor
Color sensors can detect RGB values by receiving ambient light
using a photodiode.
