What is the function of a differential pressure transmitter?

Pressure transmitters function by measuring the amount of pressure that is exerted on their sensors. It measures mechanical pressure and converts it to electrical signal.


What sensors does the robot have?

The sensors that an engineer puts on a robot are entirely dependent upon the functions that the engineer perceives that the the robot will be called upon to perform. Some, but not all, of the sensors may be: proximity sensors, pressure sensors, light sensors, magnetic sensors, a camera, temperature sensors, accelerometer, speed sensor... The question isn't, "what sensors does a robot have", but rather, "what sensors does the engineer think that the robot should have?"


How do you identify and use different types of sensors and actuators?

An actuator which is rotary will usually be a motor, as it spins a shaft to give rotational movement. An actuator which is linear will usually be a cylinder since the piston goes in and out in one direction. A sensor which is electrical will usually have a circuit involved and may not require much force for input unlike mechanical sensors. For example a light sensor requires no force to activate the sensor. A mechanical sensor usually requires a force or motion to activate the sensor, such as a pressure pad or a lever being pushed.


What sensors do assistive robots have?

They don't have sensors.


What is robot manipulation?

Robot manipulation is the system of making a robot Do what you want it to do, and stop doing it when you want it to stop. it involves systems to make the parts of the robot move (mechanical, pneumatic/hydraulic) sensors and sensor calibration, setting safety thresholds and limits.

What is antonym for sensors?

A sensor is a mechanical device sensitive to light, temperature, radiation levels or the like, that transmits a signal to a control instrument. As such, the word has no antonym.


Can O2 sensors cause P0300?

I'm gonna say no. PO300 (random missfire) would probaby be caused by ignition, fuel or mechanical failure.


Do mechanical engineers make robots?

Partially. Mechanical engineers design the structure and mechanics of a robot. Electrical engineers design the motors, sensors, and control systems. Computer engineers and computer scientists develop the AI and do the high level programming.

Does pressure gauges have electronic parts?

There are different kinds of sensors and guages which measure pressure. The first ones were mechanical. The next generation were a combination of mechanical and electrical parts, and now, some pressure detecting systems have no moving parts, and are totally electronic.
