The answers to this question are not exact, but are real and proper.
The True Value of a measurement is the value to which a large number of observations; by different observers and different methods; tend.
Accuracy is the closeness to which this measurement comes to the true value.
Sensitivity of measurement is the finest discrimination it can measure. But sensitive measurements are often 'noisy' = erratic.
Resolution is the number of digits in the result. Often quite a spurious representation of the True Value, and often mistaken for accuracy.
Consider for example the height of Mt Everest. Or your own weight.
The ASTM (in USA) and the various Standards Organizations will have very similar definitions.
Sensitivity describes the smallest change an instrument can detect. Range describes the largest change an instrument can detect.
The sensitivity of a thermometer depends on the scale or division of measurement on its display. Thermometers with smaller divisions or scales have higher sensitivity as they can detect smaller changes in temperature. Additionally, the design and materials of the thermometer can also impact its sensitivity.
The difference threshold, also known as the just noticeable difference, is the smallest change in a stimulus that can be detected by an observer. It is a measure of the sensitivity of a human's sensory system to changes in stimuli.
Calibration Sensitivity(m): slope of acalibration curve at the consentration of interest y=mx+n m:slope(Calibration Sensitivity) x:concentration n:signal of blank Analytical Sensitivity: response to noise ratio A.S=m/S m:slope S:standard deviation of the measurement
A large bulb increases sensitivity of a thermometer by allowing for more air to expand or contract, resulting in a greater change in temperature being detected. The larger surface area of the bulb also allows for more efficient heat transfer between the air and the thermometer, improving its accuracy and responsiveness to temperature changes.
Difference between single parameter sensitivity and multiple parameter sensitivity is that in multiple parameter sensitivity,defined parameters cannot be measured with a high degree of accuracy in the field or in the laboratory.
following are some static characteristics of sensors accuracy precision repeatibility range resolution sensitivity dead zone
accuracy is when you KNOW something and uncertancy is when your not sure
accuracy is the how well it is done. Quality is what something is worth.
accuracy width can be changed but fixed width is a permanent one.
An electronic stopwatch gives a higher accuracy than a mechanical stop watch.
Interpersonal sensitivity refers to the accuracy and/or appropriateness of perceptions, judgments, and responses we have with respect to one another.
Accuract is how accurate you are at somehting and rreproducibility is how reproducibility you are at something.

It's a matter of opinion, if the sensitivity is higher - you can turn and look at targets more quickly but you are less accurate. If it is lower, you're more slow but more accurate. You have to find a balance between accuracy and speed.
percentage error is the difference from the actual value divided by actual value in 100,whereas subtracting the same value from one give u the percentage accuracy
Sensitivity describes the smallest change an instrument can detect. Range describes the largest change an instrument can detect.
