What are the common sensors?

📅 Time: 2026-03-31

Common sensors include: temperature sensor, pressure sensor, touch sensor, image sensor, motion sensor, smoke or gas sensor, flame sensor, leakage sensor, tilt sensor, 

energy consumption sensor, etc.


temperature sensor


Temperature sensor is a kind of sensor that can sense temperature and convert it into usable output signal. Temperature sensor is the core component of temperature 

measuring instrument, and there are many kinds.


pressure transducer


A pressure sensor is a device or equipment that can sense pressure signals and convert them into usable output electrical signals according to specific laws.


A pressure sensor usually consists of a pressure sensitive element and a signal processing unit. According to different test pressure types, pressure sensors can be divided 

into gauge pressure sensors, differential pressure sensors and absolute pressure sensors.


Touch sensor


"Arc Touch Sensor" is a patent of Apple, with the patent number of 8603574. This patent describes in detail the technology used to manufacture accurate arc-shaped 

display screens. This patent can be applied to display screens, touch pads, touch mice and other devices.


Image sensor


CMOS image sensor is a typical solid-state imaging sensor, which has a common historical origin with CCD. CMOS image sensor is usually composed of image sensitive 

cell array, row driver, column driver, timing control logic, analog-to-digital converter, data bus output interface, control interface and other parts.


Motion sensor


Motion control sensor is a device that converts non-electric quantities (such as speed and pressure) into electrical signals.


According to this conversion mode, non-electric sensors can be divided into pressure sensors, speed sensors, temperature sensors, etc., which are components and 

accessories of measuring and controlling instruments and equipment.


Smoke or gas sensor


Smoke detectors, also known as smoke detectors, smoke sensors and smoke sensors, are mainly used in fire fighting systems and also in the construction of safety 

systems.


Flame sensor


Flame sensor and flame converter: The flame is composed of various combustion products, intermediate products, high-temperature gases, hydrocarbons, inorganic 

substances and other major high-temperature solid particles. Flame sensor is a kind of sensor specially used for robots to find the fire source.


Leak sensor


The sealing tester of ATC company, also known as micro-flow sensor, uses "mass extraction" technology to test the sealing of products, which can be realized by 

pressing or vacuuming. ATC provides a complete set of leakage/sealing solutions and optional accessories, such as standard leakage holes, equivalent channels 

and calibration samples for characterization.


Tilt sensor


Tilt sensor is a device that can detect the tilt angle or tilt degree of tilting equipment relative to downward gravity, also known as tilt switch or dump switch.


Energy consumption sensor


The energy consumption sensor is an energy consumption monitoring system, which can provide solutions for the control and measurement of power consumption, 

water consumption, air consumption, central heating energy consumption, central cooling energy consumption and other energy applications.
