The focus is firmly on understanding the technologies and their different applications, not a mathematical approach. The result is a highly readable text which provides a unique introduction to the selection and application of sensors, transducers and switches, and a grounding in the practicalities of designing with these devices.The devices covered encompass heat, light and motion, environmental sensing, sensing in industrial control, and signal-carrying and non-sTransducersDetectorsTransducers.Detectors.681.2Sinclair Ian Robertson28379MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911006646203321Sensors and transducers328615UNINA
