An
electronic sensor is a device designs to indicate or measurel something about the environment which it is operating. This information or data is created mechanically or electrically and transmits the environmet information by creating an electrical signal.
A classic and simpler example of a electronic sensor is the temperature control thermostat within a structure which is used to control the temperture of the structure. The thermostat measures
the temperature of the inside of the structure, and converts this to an electrical signal.
The electronic or electrical signal is then transmitted to the unit which either heats or cools the structures environment.
There are many different type of eletronic sensors and these devices are used to measure relative temperature, light, humidity, sound
level, weight, strain, pressure, velocity, hardness, displacement, and many more. To measure each of these parameters a diffrent sensor is required.
