Study Notes

Ultrasonic Technology

Ultrasonic transmitters generate high-frequency sound waves to measure speed or direction.
Measuring speed or direction using ultrasonic technology is used to detect object movement or distance.

Ultrasonic Receivers

Ultrasonic receivers detect the reflected sound waves and convert them into electrical signals.

Ultrasonic Transducers

Transducers are used to generate sound waves in the range of 20 kHz to 40 kHz.
A transducer is an example of a device that converts one form of energy into another.

Sensors

The primary function of a sensor is to detect and respond to various inputs.
Examples of inputs that sensors can detect and respond to include temperature, light, and sound.

Transduction in Sensors

Transduction in the context of sensors refers to the process of converting one form of energy into another.
The role of a transducer in the context of sensors is to convert the detected input into an electrical signal.
