I have been used many sensors for finished or on-going cyber physical projects. Sometimes the sensors work well as I expected and some sensors are not, easily configured or not, and cheap or expensive. It depends on the budgets for buying these sensor.

FYI, the sensor really has constrain. As we know the sensors manufacture like Senserion, DFRobots, Adafruits, etc build with their different specification.

In this article, I’ll give you the basic information about the sensors on several purpose of measurement.

I’ll keep updating the page.
