SENSOR, tipos de sensores e APLICAÇÃO

Sensors: What are the types of sensors and their applications? Temperature sensors, presence sensors, sensors and actuators, capacitive sensors, motion sensors, optical sensors, automotive sensors, and mechanical sensors are some of the sensor types. Within each sensor group, there are level sensors, presence sensors, industrial sensors, inductive sensors, and others. Temperature sensors are the most widely used sensors worldwide. There are several types, including active and passive sensors. Understanding how sensors work is an important part of studying electricity. Mundo da Elétrica explains what sensors are and where they are used. Discover the Mundo da Elétrica STORE: https://goo.gl/qJTeyw The objectives of this video include: Discussing sensors and their main applications. Highlighting the various types of sensors and how to identify them. We cover the following topics in this video: Sensors are used in various applications in industry, commerce, and even homes. A sensor is basically a device that detects and efficiently responds to a stimulus, such as heat, pressure, movement, light, and others. A sensor's function is to emit a signal that can be converted and interpreted by other devices. An acoustic sensor is a type of sensor that uses the return of an echo that propagates at the speed of sound, and is one of the types of sensors used to measure distances. Electrical sensors detect variations in electrical quantities, such as an increase in electrical current or even a variation in electrical voltage. These changes trigger some type of signal to change the status of a specific circuit, such as switching a relay. There are various types of magnetic sensors, some as simple as reed switches, which are used to detect the opening of doors or windows, for example. - Mechanical sensors are those capable of detecting position, movement, or presence through mechanical means. Optical sensors are also known as photoelectric sensors and use light propagation to operate. Optical sensors are used to index objects and can also be used to measure the distance between objects and the sensor. A thermal sensor is a type of sensor that provides a specific response when subjected to a change in temperature. The best-known thermal sensor is the thermometer that almost everyone has at home. It is used to measure body temperature. There are also specific sensors that fit within these groups. Highlighted parts in this video: 00:52 - Sensors are used to enable other devices, such as relays, to perform a specific function based on a stimulus, such as a change in electrical quantity. 02:09 - A reed switch is a magnetic sensor that changes the state of a contact in the presence of a magnet. 03:30 - One of the most common electromechanical sensors is the limit switch. 04:45 - The most measured quantity in the world after time is temperature, and there are several types of temperature sensors.
