This document discusses sensors and how they relate to and extend human senses. It describes how sensors can detect changes in measurements like temperature, pressure, humidity, and other variables that human senses are limited in detecting. Sensors allow detection of phenomena beyond the visible light and audible sound spectra. Sensors provide measurements continuously unlike intermittent human sensing, and often with more precision and reproducibility. Sensors are found in many everyday devices and applications like cars, phones, appliances, and environmental monitoring to extend sensing capabilities.
The importance of sensor networks and ai in supporting smart grid in the indu...yohan2012
We should look at the smartest creature on earth, that is human, in talking about the importance of sensor networks and intelligent. Millions of sensors in the human body are meaningless without nerves and a brain. Even though, without learning it can not be said that human is smart enough. Furthermore, It can not be said agile enough without dynamic actuators.
The deepest challenges in human-computer interaction (HCI) lie in the human factor. Humans are complicated. We’re young, old, female, male, experts, novices, left-handed, right-handed, English-speaking, Chinese-speaking, from the north, from the south, tall, short, strong, weak, fast, slow, able-bodied, disabled, sighted, blind, motivated, lazy, creative, bland, tired, alert, and on and on.
This week, we discuss the five classical human senses that are vision, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. Please download this material; please enjoyed it.

Ultrasonic Obstacle Avoidance and Auto Brake Car System Mahmoud Kharsa
Base on Atmega2560 microcontroller , This project is about Ultrasonic distance measurements and how to implement it in a car safety system.
Actions are to be taken automatically based on whether it is safe to avoid obstacle or to apply auto brake.
A sensor is a device that detects and responds to some type of input from the physical environment.
The specific input could be light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure, or any one of a great number of other environmental phenomena.
The output is generally a signal that is converted to human-readable display at the sensor location or transmitted electronically over a network for reading or further processing.
Seminar on Electronic-NOSE (E-NOSE) By- MAYANK SAHUmayank843
A Presentation on Electronic-NOSE (E-NOSE) By- MAYANK SAHU,
From - KNS Institute of Technology, Bangalore.
An electronic nose is a device intended to detect odors or flavours.
It is based on “Electronic sensing” or “e-sensing” technology .
E-NOSE consists of certain mechanisms such as an array of electronic sensors for chemical detection and artificial neural network for pattern recognition.
The electronic noses are being developed in order to mimic human olfaction that functions as a non-separative mechanism: i.e. an odor / flavor is perceived as a global fingerprint. An electronic nose (e-nose) is a device that identifies the specific components of an odour and analyzes its chemical makeup to identify it.Over the last decade, "electronic sensing" or "e-sensing" technologies have undergone important developments from a technical and commercial point of view. The "electronic nose" is a relatively new tool that may be used for safety, quality, or process monitoring, accomplishing in a few minutes procedures that may presently require days to complete. It can be regarded as a modular system comprising a set of active materials which detect the odour, associated sensors which transduce the chemical quantity into electrical signals, followed by appropriate signal conditioning and processing to classify known odours or identify unknown odours. E-nose finds application in industrial processes, environmental toxins and pollutants, space stations & space shuttle air quality, medicines body function, food processing, military environment and toxicology. Electronic noses have provided a plethora of benefits to a variety of commercial industries, including the agricultural, biomedical, cosmetics, environmental, food, manufacturing, military, pharmaceutical, regulatory, and various scientific research fields.
A sensor is a machine that detects and reacts to some kind of input from the objective environment. The precise input might be light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure, or any one of a huge number of additional environmental occurrences. The output is usually a signal that is transformed to human-readable exhibit at the sensor site or broadcasted electronically above a network for evaluation or further dispensation.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. SENSORS
Are devices capable of detecting change:
Temperature
Pressure
Humidity
Speed
And Many more …
There are many types of sensors used for various
applications that detect different types of measurands
Example:
Area of application
Environment – monitor air pollution
Type of measurands
Chemical – gas type and concentration
Thermal – temperature
3. HUMAN SENSES
[Vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch]
Human senses help detect change
How they enhance our ability to detect change
Your senses consist of a very narrow band of what is possible,
but there are devices that help people sense things beyond
their capabilities or limitations
Examples:
Each of our senses need a certain amount of energy to work properly
Light must be a certain brightness to see
sound must be loud enough to hear
The pressure on our skin must be great enough to feel. The skin must be
sensitive enough to detect the difference in temperature--hot or cold.
4. HUMAN VISION
Human Eye 4,100Å (violet) to 6,600Å (red)
(400-600nm)
http://www.predictive-maintenance.com/electrical.html
6. “VISION” SENSORS
Importance: Sight is limited to the visible light spectrum
Devices are used to detect waves beyond the human range
Night vision goggles – creates images in the infra-red range
X-ray machines – creates images with the very short x-ray
wavelengths
There are environmental parameters that are important to our
welfare and survival that cannot be sensed by the human
senses
An example: radioactivity, UV exposure, etc.
7. SOUND SENSORS
Importance: human hearing is limited
Microphones can detect sound at extremely low
volumes
Ultrasound devices detect sounds at very high
frequencies
Communication
Whales, submarines
8. SMELL SENSORS
Human smell is limited to a certain number of chemical
compounds in the air
Electronic Noses
Air quality (NASA project, industry – medical)
Foods (fish, fruit, etc.)
Wines
Smoke detectors
There are environmental parameters that are important to
our welfare and survival that cannot be sensed by the
human senses examples:
carbon monoxide, radon, etc.
9. HUMAN BODY
-TASTE-
There are four tastes that can be recognized by
the tongue: sweet, sour, bitter, and salty.
Most of what we experience as taste is actually
from our sense of smell.
Particular scents and tastes are due to different
molecules that bind to smell and taste receptors.
Our smell receptors can recognize thousands of
different scent molecules.
10. TASTE SENSORS
Human taste requires direct contact with the
compound
Taste sensor
Example: Litmus paper – can tell if a compound is acidic or a
base
Water quality (sensors that sample the water)
-pollution, ecoli, etc.
Fish freshness
Females have more taste buds than males
Taste is the weakest of the five senses
11. FEEL SENSORS
Humans can detect change in temperature relative
to the environment
A human or a sensor needs to be "calibrated." There are differences
between people and between cultures in the way the human
"sensors" are "calibrated." For example, an Eskimo might call a room
"too hot" that a person from New York calls "just right."
Sensors relating to - pressure, temperature and gravity
Thermometers, wind speed, motion detectors, etc.
Magnetic field sensors
Some birds and fish can sense the earth’s magnetic field, humans
seem unable to (we use compasses)
Electric Fields
Sharks and eels seem to be able to, humans cannot (electrometers)
12. IMPORTANCE OF SENSORS
There are inventions or devices that can extend the
human physical senses of sight, hearing, taste, smell,
touch (pressure, temperature and gravity).
To appreciate the role of the environmental sensors by
considering them as an extension of human senses.
Sensors sense the same phenomena as human
senses, but:
they are there 24 hours a day
they are there 365 days a year
their measurements are more precise (sensitive & selective)
their measurements are reproducible
15. VERNIER LABPRO O2 SENSOR
How it works
O2 Gas Sensor measures oxygen levels using an
electrochemical sensor (meaning it detects a
chemical change by measuring electrical properties )
Chemical reaction generates a current that is proportional
to the oxygen level current is measured across a
resistance to generate a small voltage output voltage
output is conditioned and read by the Vernier interface
