  3. Sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensor

    Different types of light sensors. A sensor is a device that produces an output signal for the purpose of detecting a physical phenomenon.. In the broadest definition, a sensor is a device, module, machine, or subsystem that detects events or changes in its environment and sends the information to other electronics, frequently a computer processor.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiometric_sensor

    Potentiometric solid state gas sensors have been generally classified into three broad groups. Type I sensors have an electrolyte containing mobile ions of the chemical species in the gas phase that it is monitoring. The commercial product, YSZ oxygen sensor, [1] is an example of type I.

  6. Nanosensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanosensor

    As an example of classification, nanosensors that use molecularly imprinted polymers (MIP) can be divided into three categories, which are electrochemical, piezoelectric, or spectroscopic sensors. Electrochemical sensors induce a change in the electrochemical properties of the sensing material, which includes charge , conductivity , and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_component

    Sensors (detectors) are transducers that react to environmental conditions by changing their electrical properties or generating an electrical signal. The transducers listed here are single electronic components (as opposed to complete assemblies), and are passive (see Semiconductors and Tubes for active ones). Only the most common ones are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensor_fusion

    Typically decision level sensor fusion is used in classification an recognition activities and the two most common approaches are majority voting and Naive-Bayes. [citation needed] Advantages coming from decision level fusion include communication bandwidth and improved decision accuracy. It also allows the combination of heterogeneous sensors ...

  9. Robotic sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotic_sensing

    There are three types of tactile sensors. The first, single point sensors, can be compared to a single cell, or whiskers, and can detect very local stimuli. The second type of sensor is a high spatial resolution sensor which can be compared to a human fingertip and is essential for the tactile acuity in robotic hands.
