The document provides an overview of sensors and actuators, defining sensors as electronic devices that measure physical quantities and convert them into readable signals. It also defines actuators as mechanical devices that convert energy into motion, commonly used in industrial applications. The presentation highlights the essential functions and applications of these technologies.

2. INTRODUCTION TO SENSOR
 A sensor is an electronic device which is made to
sense physical quantities and is also known as
detector.
 Sensor is a device that measures a physical
quantity and converts it into a signal which can be
read by an observer or by an instrument

3. DEFINITION OF SENSOR
 “It is a transducer that converts energy from one type to
another type for any particular purpose”

4. INTRODUCTION TO ACTUATORS
 An actuator is type of motor responsible for moving
or controlling a system
 An actuator is something that converts energy into
motion

5. CONT….
 An actuator typically is a mechanical device that
takes energy and converts it into motion.
 Actuators are typically used in manufacturing or
industrial application.

6. DEFINITION OF ACTUATOR
 “It is a mechanical device for moving or controlling a
mechanism or system”
