                       Sensors and Actuators         1. Sensor: tools that used to detect the changing of physical and chemical environment and it can be used as lifeblood of internet of things; here we learn what a sensing technology. ·          Different types of sensors: transducers, transmitters, power supply, memory and etc…. ·          Difference between sensors and smart sensors ·          Differences between sensor and actuators, where actuators act to transform one energy into another form of energy, it can be used for many applications. Eg: microphones, diodes, thermistors, pH robe. Describe Sensors briefly in IOT architecture 2. Actuators: can be used for ...

Actuators and actuating technology Actuators: An actuator turns a control signal into mechanical action such as an electric motor. Actuators may be based on hydraulic, pneumatic, electric, thermal or mechanical means, but are increasingly being driven by software. An actuator ties a control system to its environment.    Actuating technology: Technology that can be used for the actuators materials 1. Electric:    is a system of electric wiring that is able to produce electricity; Electric actuators  are the perfect solution when you need simple, safe and clean movement with accurate and smooth motion control. 2. Fluidic: an actuator function for operation of pressure flows and actuating fluids. 3: Thermal: Thermal actuators are mechanical systems that use the thermally induced expansion and contraction of materials as a mechanism for the creation of motion on devices. 4. Mechanical actuators: Transform any form of energy into mechanical energy....
