the thermistor corresponding to the temperature change.
3. Thermocouples: Thermocouples are a type of temperature transducers consisting
of two junctions of different metals, such as constantan and copper, welded together.
This temperature difference among two junctions produces a voltage generated across
the junction utilized to measure the temperature.

transducers are the type of transducers that employ the temperature sensing
component with solid electronic circuits as a combination for the temperature
measurement.

Working principle
How does the ultrasonic sensor work?
10. The ultrasonic sensor emits high-frequency sound waves towards the target
object, and a timer is started
11. Target object reflects the sound waves back towards the sensor
12. The receiver picks up the reflected wave and stops the timer
13. The time taken for the wave’s return is calculated against the speed of sound
to determine the distance travelled

How does the Capacitive humidity sensor work?

Capacitive humidity sensors have been designed to measure the relative humidity by
the placement of a thin metal oxide between two electrodes. When there’s a change in
the relative humidity of the atmosphere, the electrical capacity of the metal oxide will
change. These sensors are linear and they can measure relative humidity ranging from
zero to 100 percent.

How does the smoke sensor work?

1. A smoke detector is a sensor that detects smoke as a primary indication of fire.
2. It provides a signal to a fire alarm system in a large building, or produces an
audible and visual signal locally in a room or a home.
3. Smoke detectors are usually housed in a small, round shaped plastic case, and
placed at the roof where there are risks of fire or fire hazards

How does an Infrared Sensor Work?

1. IR source (transmitter) is used to emit radiation of required wavelength.
2. This radiation reaches the object and is reflected back.
3. The reflected radiation is detected by the IR receiver.
