Intelligent Instrumentation Smart Sensors

Sensors convert physical stimuli like heat, light, sound, and pressure into electrical signals. Smart sensors go beyond basic sensing to include integrated information processing, coding, and compensation capabilities. They are used for applications like temperature sensing, proximity detection, pressure measurement, gas and smoke detection, motion sensing, and more. While smart sensors provide advantages like increased intelligence and autonomy, they also face disadvantages such as higher costs and complexity.

Introduction
 The Sensors are devices that responds to a physical stimulus
heat, light, sound, pressure, magnetism, motion, etc , and
convert that into an electrical signal.
 They perform an input function
 The Devices which perform an output function are generally
called Actuators and are used to control. some external device,
for example movement.
 Both sensors and actuators are collectively known as
Transducers. Transducers are devices used to convert energy
of one kind into energy of another kind.
