A sensor is often defined as ~
a device that receives and responds to a signal or stimulus.

• and more!
Passive component: Capable of operating without an external power.
Ex. Resistors, capacitors, inductors..etc
Active component: Requiring a source of power to operate
Ex. Transistors, Op-Amps, ICs.

Back to input devices…. All sensors may be of two kinds:
1. passive (directly generates electric signal) – piezo, photodiode…
2. active (need to apply external stimulus) – thermistor, strain gauge
Things that you want to know before deciding which sensor to use
- what “phenomena” you are interested in and what is the “range” of
the signal. Does the signal need “conditioning*” or “amplification**”??

Simple strain gauge
Strain Gauges – measuring the strain of an object need to be bonded onto a hard surface, so they can be forced into strain when the surface is
deflected. Soft materials won’t strain the gauge enough

Remote Sensing – Detecting “the Field”
![Page 17: Sensor Introduction MAS S62 Crafting Material Interfaces ...nanweigong.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/sensorIntro.pdf · Jacob Fraden, Handbook of Modern Sensors – physics,](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042605/5f3b17fbf2a48f6505131614/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Remote Sensing
• the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon, without
making physical contact with the object.
• Again, passive and active.
• Examples of passive remote sensors include film photography, infrared,
charge-coupled devices, and radiometers.
• Active collection, on the other hand, emits energy in order to scan objects
and areas whereupon a sensor then detects and measures the radiation
that is reflected or backscattered from the target. RADAR and LiDAR are
examples of active remote sensing where the time delay between emission
and return is measured, establishing the location, height, speed and
direction of an object.

Light Detectors
• CdS (Cadmium Sulfide) and CdSe (Cadmium Selenide) cells are common
http://media.digikey.com/photos/Advanced%20Photonix%20Photos/PDV-P9203.jpg
CdS tends to like Yellow... Photons knock electrons into conduction band. 1 photon can release 900 electrons Acceptor band keeps electron lifetime
high -> Lower Resistance with increasing light. Slow response...
Other photon sensors such as
-photodiodes
-phototransistor
-Photodiode ICs and color sensors (IC)

Non-contact Capacitive Sensing
• User must contact transmitter
• User uniquely tagged
• Can use multiple frequencies; multiple users
• 2-object geometry
=> Best for accurate tracking
• Industrial (short range) proximity
• No contact with electrode
• 3-object geometry
=> Hard to do tracking
• Can “focus” w. tomograpy
=> Add more transceivers
Loading Mode (measure I ) t
• Single Electrode
• No cable to electrode
• Couples to everything
• Hard to adjust sens. area
• Used for everything

Gait Analysis
Different signatures typically detected with the passive capacitive sensing
method. (a) Forefoot strike, (b) heel strike pattern (left feet), (c) and (d) mid-swing
between steps(right feet), detected by adjacent electrodes. The decay time is
from the RC response of the envelope detector.

Cellular signals versus localization and
identification
13.56MHz NFC square loop antenna
900/1800MHz ¼ wavelength
GSM antenna
Cutouts on the electrode
eliminate Eddy currents that
would decrease
performance.
• The pattern and signal strength of NFC are
consistent and can easily be used to determine range
by measuring peak thresholds.
• GSM signals have stronger signal response that
can infer longer distance tracking by integrating and
averaging the signal patterns.
