About his Book:

Sensors surround you in daily life. The world is
full of them: from passive infrared sensors in
motion detectors, to CO2
detectors in air con-
ditioning systems, and even tiny accelerome-
ters, GPS modules, and cameras inside your
smartphone and tablet—sensors are every-
where! The variety of sensor applications is re-
markable.
It’s safe to assume that if an electronic device is considered “smart,” it’s full
of sensors (Figure 1-1). In fact, thanks to the proliferation of smart devices,
especially phones, the price of sensors has been driven to affordability. Not
only is it economically viable to add advanced sensors to your projects, but
they vastly expand the kinds of projects you can make.
You’ll learn about sensors in this book by making small projects and reflecting
on the experience. It’s more fun to build first and discuss later, but both are
equally important. It’s best to avoid the temptation to only build projects and
skip the conceptual sections.
Getting started with sensors is easy, and only the sky is the limit. Electronics
challenge some of the best brains daily and produce new innovations and
dissertations. On the other hand, even a child can get started with some
guidance.
If you don’t know much about sensors yet, try to remember what it feels like
now. After you’ve tackled some challenges and built a couple of gadgets,
many dark mysteries of sensors will probably seem like common sense to
you.
This book is suitable for anyone with an interest in sensors (see Figure 1-2).
After you’ve built the gadgets and have read this book, you can get ideas for
bigger projects from our book Make: Arduino Bots and Gadgets or learn more
advanced sensors in Make: Sensors. For a wider view of the basics, see Get-
ting Started with Arduino, 2nd Edition by Massimo Banzi, Getting Started with
Raspberry Pi by Matt Richardson and Shawn Wallace, or Make: Electronics
by Charles Platt.
