For this assignment, I took a walk around the Berry campus to look for sensors. Sensors I found were mostly pressure sensors in the form of buttons like the ones on the ATM in the Krannert Building or handicap buttons, like this one:
 |
| Handicap Button |
Then there were the ones on cars that set off the alarm if you bump them too hard in cars like this:
 |
| Don't hit these |
 |
| Don't hit these either |
There are also light sensors around Berry such as lampposts and computer mice.
 |
| Do not hit people with these |
 |
| Don't hit the ones in Dana |
There are also a number of chemical sensors in smoke alarms such as this one:
Nice examples. I wonder how the car bump sensor works? Like what form is it and where is it located. I knew a guy who ran an alarm system company and he used to have his car all wired up with fancy alarm systems that would talk and tell you "move back" "do not approach" if you even went close to the car!
