Objective
Sensors are used to monitor key parameters during production and use so that equipment can remain efficient and productive. It is, therefore, obvious that sensors play a significant role in modern society and industrial scenarios.
Sensor technology revolutionized the world's technology and brought about the information age. In order to use information effectively, one of the first steps is to obtain accurate and reliable information and data. Sensors are a major component in accomplishing this step. They play a more prominent role in the research of basic disciplines. Without appropriate sensors, it is obviously impossible to collect information that cannot be obtained by the human senses directly. Many basic scientific research projects are hampered by the difficulties of obtaining object information, but the emergence of new mechanisms and high-sensitivity detection sensors leads to breakthroughs in this field. Many fields have already benefited from sensors, including industrial production, environmental protection, healthcare, etc. Regardless of the complexity of a system, the sensor is essential. In addition, they have advantages such as easy deployment and low costs. Sensors are therefore necessary in the modern world.
