Sensors for Interaction
List of Sensors suitable for Interaction, categorized by different aspects:
Interface:
Resistance, voltage, current, capacitance, frequency, digital protocol, pwm, switch, open collector, logic level
Physical effect:
Pressure, Tension, Voltage, Current, Magnetism, Bend / flex, position, length, distance, presence, orientation, light, conductance (resistance), sound pressure, air pressure, fluid pressure, ultrasound, angle, radii (curvature)
Use as interface
Difficult to classify, thus incomplete:
location (2d, 3d), eye position, movement, forces and deformation, presence, ambient measurements. switches and buttons. incremental input (rotary or linear sliders, etc.)
Common Examples
writing: location + pressure mouse: location + digital pressure + wheel
Sensor | Physical | Electrical |
Bend and flex stress or curvature | Bending | Resistive |
Reed switch | Magnetism | Switch |
Photo transistor | Light, broad spectrum | Transistor, current |
Photo diode | Light, broad spectrum | Diode, reverse current |
LDR (Light dependant resistor) | Light, broad spectrum | Resistive |
PIR: passive infrared movement detector | Movement of differently warm objects | Open collector / Voltage / Switch |
Pyroelectric Sensor | Changes in Temperature | Transistor, current |
FSR Force sensing Resistor | Pressure | Resistive |
NTC | Temperature | Resistance |
PTC | Temperature | Resistance |
Temperature Sensor, integrated | Temperature | Voltage |
Hall Sensor | Magnetic fields | various. |
Electret microphone | Pressure (sound) in air. | Voltage (integrated amplifier) |
Piezo disk or transducer | deformation, sound in solids and fluids, | Voltage |
