Gyroscope sensors

A sensor or device which is used to measure the angular rate or angular velocity is known as Gyro sensors, Angular velocity is simply defined as a measurement of speed of rotation around an axis. It is a device used primarily for navigation and measurement of angular and rotational velocity in 3-axis directions. The most important application is monitoring the orientation of an object.

Humidity sensors

Humidity is defined as the amount of water vapour in an atmosphere of air or other gases. The most commonly used terms are “Relative Humidity (RH)

Following are key type of optical sensors:

Photodetector: It uses light sensitive semiconductor materials like photocells,photodiodes or phototransistors to work as photodetector

Fiber Optics: Fibers optics carry no current, So its immune to electrical & electromagnetics interference and even in damaged condition no sparking or shock hazard happens.

Pyrometer: It estimates the temperature of an object by sensing the color of the light and Objects radiate light according to their temperature and produce same colors at same temperature.

Proximity & Infrared: Proximity use light to sense objects nearby and Infrared are used where visible light would be inconvenient.
