Types Of Human Body Sensors

We live in a world of sensors.

Types of human body sensors.

Taking this approach enables students to view the human body as a system that is from the perspective of an engineer. Working to make our lives easier by turning on the lights by detecting our presence adjusting the room temperature detect smoke or fire make us delicious coffee open garage doors as soon as our car is near the door and many other tasks. In the past few years body worn sensor based har has made promising progress in. Humans have recreated most human sensors in robots eyes ears and sensors for temperature touch and smell.

Thermometers are a type of sensor commonly used in health care. In your eyes you have two different types of light sensors. Thermometers translate the expansion of a fluid or bending of a metal strip in response to heat into a number corresponding to body temperature. Many different types of sensors are already used in health care including self care at home.

A sensor converts the physical parameter for example. Sensors are sophisticated devices that are frequently used to detect and respond to electrical or optical signals. This lesson highlights the similarities between human sensors and their engineering counterparts. Temperature blood pressure humidity speed etc into a signal which can be measured electrically sensor can be defined as an element that senses in one form of energy to produce a variant in same or another form of energy.

The lesson includes a powerpoint file that is programmed to run a. Therefore in this work we propose an effective and efficient system that is able to recognize a human s physical activities automatically through analysis of the signals acquired in real time from multiple body worn or body embedded inertial sensors.
