Biosensors are generally concerned with sensing and measuring particular chemicals that need not be biological components themselves. Photoresistor Light-sensitive resistor whose resistance changes with light. Photodiode Light-sensitive diode that produces a current in response to light Phototransistor Designed to be sensitive to light. Detects fluctuating light signals. Upon thinking of applying new technology of sensor to the homes of the future, smart structure can lead one to mesh the structure of the building and sensor together.
Sensors are one of the essential components of a smart structure.
Sensors will provide the ability to monitor and measure external stimuli to subsequent behavior throughout the structural medium. Acoustic sensors very perceptive systems but problems are resulting from the character of the wavelengths and the elimination of interfering signals generated in stressed materials have not been overcome yet. Microelectronic sensors that has advantages in their variability and the possibility of data preprocessing. Considerable effort has been focused on the interconnection of sensors into network where qualitative advances in the transmission of electronic signals are expected. If the induced breakdowns of signals that are processed at low frequencies were eliminated, then microelectronic sensors would have a higher profile.
