The MQ-2 type smoke sensor is made of a tin dioxide semiconductor gas sensing material. When it works at a temperature of 200 to 300 °C, the tin dioxide adsorbs the oxygen in the air, which reduces the density of electrons on the semiconductor and thus increasing the resistance. When it comes into contact with smoke, if the barriers at grain
Different types of sensors that work on the basis of laser light are: Laser distance sensors. Displacement sensors. Laser projectors. Laser light curtains. Laser photoelectric sensors. Positioning lasers. Laser edge detection sensors. Below we will discuss the different laser sensors with an explanation of their workings and usability in
LibreCO2: Simple CO2 meter using Arduino UNO and CO2 low cost sensor (Sensirion SCD30, Winsen MH-Z14 or MHZ-19 and Cubic CM1106). This is a simple and low cost sensor version of a CO2 meter built with the most common materials on the market: an Arduino UNO and the three most popular low cost REAL CO2 sensors: Sensirion SCD30, Winsen MH-Z14 or 19 and Cubic CM1106.
Air quality sensing devices monitor noxious gases and particulate matter. More specifically, they focus on tracking the number, and size, of gaseous or particulate elements in the air. The most common pollutants and gases that air quality sensors measure are particulate matter, ozone, sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxide, and carbon monoxide. What do
