What are the application cases of sensors in our life

2022-08-02

With the development of The Times, intelligent technology has gone deep into our life, as big as the control of the whole building system, as small as a small access card reflects the era of intelligence. Hidden within these systems and tools are important components, sensors. A device or device that senses measured quantities and converts them into useful signals according to certain rules. Did you know that sensors are everywhere in our lives?
Temperature sensor:
The temperature sensor uses materials that are sensitive to temperature changes to measure the temperature and convert it into an output signal. According to the material difference, it can be divided into: thermistor sensor, platinum temperature resistance sensor, thermocouple sensor, etc. Temperature sensor applications include: smart bracelet, smart home sensing control device, machine, automobile, weather, construction, etc.
Access induction door:
When people approach, sensors recognize the body's infrared microwaves and transmit them to the drive system to open the door, and then automatically close the door when the person leaves. The sensor is the eyes of the automatic door control system, through the sensor sensing antenna to pedestrians or moving objects. The signal is converted into passive dry contact short circuit signal and transmitted to automatic door controller, so as to realize automatic door opening. Sensor has accurate, sensitive, durable characteristics, automatic monitoring and control of the first link of the automatic door, which is widely used in the automatic door.
Water level monitoring alarm:
Every place, will set up water level monitoring alarm, when encountered with heavy rain or flood, if the water level exceeds the standard number, the alarm will sound, tell you there is a threat, let you do a good job to evacuate to a safe area. The water level alarm sensor uses a solid state sensor to detect the presence of conductive liquids such as water overflow, water container level, drain pool, etc. There are many examples of sensor application in modern life, such as gas alarm, infrared alarm and so on.
Smoke alarm:

In addition to the burning fire, the general fire is usually accompanied by strong smoke. The working principle of smoke alarm is to detect the concentration of smoke in the air through the internal dust sensor, so as to give early warning of fire. Smoke, as we see it in our daily life, is actually tiny solid particles floating in the air. Smoke alarm can use the GDS06 infrared particulate sensor, its small size, cost-effective, embedded in the smoke alarm can be sensitive to detect the concentration of particulate matter, once the danger can timely alert people.
