Measurement of Linear Velocity Using Velocity Transducers

The speed (how fast is object moving) and direction of motion of an object or rate of displacement covered by an object traveling along a straight path is known as the Linear Velocity. Most of the linear velocity transducers wor…

Measurement of Angular Velocity Using Digital Methods

The electromechanical tachometers (dc and ac tachometer generators) are suited for measuring angular velocity up to 10000 rpm. For measurement of high speeds effectively, various digital methods are employed, where there is no ph…

What is Photoelectric Transducer? - Definition & its Types

What is Photoelectric Transducer? The photoelectric transducer is a light-sensitive device used to convert light energy into electrical energy. It is made up of semiconductor material that emits electrons when a beam of light fa…

Types of Strain Gauges - Bonded & Unbonded Strain Gauges

The strain gauge is a transducer used to measure strain and associated stress in experimental stress analysis. When a metal wire (or conducting wire) is stretched or compressed, its length and diameter change due to which the res…

Measurement of Strain with Strain Gauge & Gauge Sensitivity

What is a Strain Gauge? The strain gauge is the most extensively used electrical transducer for measuring surface strain. It is a device that works on Piezo-resistive Effect i.e., the tension (or) compression experienced by an o…
