What are the technologies and applications of sensors?

Definition of sensor: a device or equipment that can sense a specified measured object and convert it into a usable signal according to certain rules, usually consisting of a sensitive element and a conversion element.

The characteristics of sensors include miniaturization, digitalization, intelligence, multifunction, systematization and networking. It not only promotes the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, but also may establish new industries, thus becoming a new economic growth point in 2 1 century.

The application of 1) in intelligent agriculture

Because of the particularity of the environment, most agricultural projects are carried out in the field, and the correction operation is very inconvenient and the labor cost is very high, so the requirement for sensor data stability is very high, and intelligent sensors are the most effective sensors.

2) Application in industrial automation

In the modern industrial production process, especially in the automatic production process, various sensors should be used to monitor and control various parameters in the production process, so that the equipment can work in normal or optimal state and the products can achieve the best quality. It can be said that industrial automation is impossible without excellent intelligent sensors.

3) Application in robots

Nowadays, robots have the same physical and sensory functions as human beings, certain intelligence and flexible action programs, and can operate independently of human beings. These are indispensable sensors, which are an important helper for robots to perceive the outside world.

4) Application in intelligent medical care

With the development of intelligent sensors, medical intelligent sensors, as the five senses to extract vital signs, play an increasingly important role and have been widely used. For example, in image processing, clinical chemical examination, vital signs monitoring, diagnosis and treatment of respiratory system, nervous system and cardiovascular diseases. The function of intelligent sensor is irreplaceable, and it will be almost ubiquitous in modern medical instruments and equipment in the future.

5) Application in smart home appliances

Smart home is the general trend in the future, and smart home appliances will be a must-have product for many families. Smart sensors can be used in many household appliances in the future, such as TV series, fans, air conditioners, washing machines, dryers, refrigerators, wardrobes and so on. It is the basic equipment to realize the communication between people and household appliances, and it is also the foundation of home Internet of Things.
