This document discusses different types of sensors that can sense various phenomena. It outlines mechanical sensors like strain gauges and accelerometers that can detect physical properties. Optical sensors are separated into direct and indirect sensors that can detect light directly or through an intermediate form. Thermal sensors can measure temperature through dimensional changes, resistance variations, or acoustic methods. Finally, chemical and biological sensors can identify compounds or analyze biological responses through artificial noses or tongues.
