The Role of Optical Sensors in Electronic Applications

Optical sensors are electronic components designed to detect and convert incident light rays into electrical signals. These components are useful for measuring the intensity of incident light and converting it into a form readable by an integrated measuring device, depending on the sensor type. This article outlines the principles of operation of optical sensors, optical sensor types, considerations for optical sensor selection, and key applications.
