What are the areas of application of sensors

What are the applications of sensors? Sensor applications involve machinery manufacturing, industrial process control, automotive electronics, communications electronics, consumer electronics and specialized equipment. Specialized equipment Specialized equipment mainly includes medical, environmental protection, meteorological and other fields of application of professional electronic equipment. Currently, the medical field is a huge sales volume of sensors, the emerging market of considerable profits, the field requires sensor devices to miniaturization, low cost and high reliability direction. ② Industrial automation Industrial applications such as process control, industrial machinery, as well as traditional sensors; a variety of measurement of process variables (such as temperature, level, pressure, flow, etc.); measurement of electronic characteristics (current, voltage, etc.) and physical quantities (motion, speed, load, and strength), as well as the traditional proximity/location sensors are developing rapidly. ③ Communication electronics The significant growth in cell phone production and the increasing number of new features of cell phones bring opportunities and challenges to the sensor market, color screen cell phones and camera phones rising market share increased the proportion of sensors used in this field. In addition, ultrasonic sensors used in group phones and cordless phones, magnetic field sensors used in magnetic storage media, etc. will see strong growth. ⑤ Automotive industry The key to the level of electronic control system of modern high-grade cars lies in the number and level of pressure sensors used, and at present, an ordinary family car is installed about dozens to nearly a hundred sensors, while the number of sensors on the limousine can be up to more than two hundred, and the types are usually up to more than 30, more than a hundred kinds of sensors.
