Study Notes

Gaming Devices and Sensors

  • Accelerometers in gaming devices measure acceleration and deceleration, allowing games to respond to tilting the device forward/backward and side to side.
  • Proximity sensors in smart touch pads use embedded electrodes to detect hand/finger position, increasing user awareness.
  • Embedded accelerometers, proximity sensors, and microcontrollers in games consoles enable increased human interaction with the game, simulating real events and providing a more immersive experience.

Microprocessor-Controlled Lighting

  • Light sensors automatically switch lights on or off depending on ambient lighting.
  • Motion sensors turn lights on in a room when somebody enters.
  • Infrared sensors can be used as motion detectors or part of the security system.
