This is an era where everything is connected. Sensing technology has established a close connection between people and everything. IoT (Internet of Things), this invisible network - physical objects or "things" connected through embedded sensors, software and networks. "Form a network to quickly collect and exchange data, further making people's lives more convenient and their work more efficient.
Sensors play a vital role in IoT devices by detecting changes or movements in the environment and collecting data, allowing the device to function accordingly.
This article will introduce you to the 10 most commonly used sensors in IoT: temperature sensor, proximity sensor, accelerometer sensor, gyroscope sensor, pressure sensor, liquid level sensor, light sensor, humidity sensor, gas sensor, sound sensor.
