Sensor Technology Is Invading Every Facet of Our Lives… And It’s Spectacular!
Common devices are being equipped with more and more sensing technology to give users greater control over their everyday lives.
It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking about sensors in a purely abstract way. Sure, we know current and emerging sensor technology is crucial to the expansion of the IoT, which is forecast to revolutionize everything from agriculture to city management. We’re also intimately familiar with a sensor fusion device (one capable of integrating the outputs from multiple different sensors) that is likely only a few feet away from us at any given time—our smartphones. These now-essential machines are equipped with GPS sensors, accelerometers, capacitive touchscreens, light sensors, and IR scanners, among many others.
But as technological proliferation grows by leaps and bounds and we move towards the trillion sensor universe, even the most mundane devices and appliance in our daily lives are becoming awash in sensing technology. These deceptively smart devices may resemble their forbears at a glance, but thanks to their ability to understand the world around them through sensing technology, their capabilities far outstrip those of their predecessors.
Here are just a few examples of devices that we’ve used for decades, and how recent additions of modern sensor technology have taken their functionality to the next level.
