Do you understand the sensor of your wearable device?

The function of a wearable device depends to a large extent on what kind of sensor is built into it. Here are some of the sensors that are frequently used in wearable devices. Let's take a closer look at what they do.

Accelerometer

The accelerometer is the most basic type of sensor that can be used to measure the direction and speed of motion. The Apple iPhone is the first smartphone to use an accelerometer that detects the direction and trajectory of the phone. In wearable devices, accelerometers can often be used to determine your steps and sleep quality. By measuring your movement speed, the accelerometer can “tell” the wearable device how far you are going, and if your wrist hasn’t been moving, it will think you are asleep.

Altimeter

Monitoring the weight change of the user is an important function of the wearable device, and the role of the altimeter is to calculate how many stairs you have climbed, how many calories you have burned, and whether you have become fat or thin. The altimeter can detect that you have climbed a few floors through atmospheric pressure changes, and combined with the number of steps you have taken, to perform more accurate calorie consumption calculations.

Gesture control sensor

This is a kind of sensor that can detect movements of various parts of the body. The user can control the equipment through some simple actions, such as waving a hand. For now, this technology is still in the development stage, but its future application may give us no small surprise.

GPS positioning

GPS is mainly used in high-end sports watches. However, some Android Wears, including Moto 360, are also equipped with GPS technology. GPS is an essential feature if you want to ensure that all your exercise data is correct. It should be noted that GPS consumes a lot of power and requires constant search for signals.

OLED

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) are generally used for display screens of wearable devices and can achieve very clear and bright display effects. In general, if you buy a wearable device that does not have this technology, it's equivalent to a waste of money. In the future, we will see some technologies that make the display more clear and bright, and even achieve 3D effects. However, for the moment, OLED is already the best display technology on wearable devices.

Optical heart rate monitoring

This device usually uses a red or green light spot on your wrist to detect your heart rate. This technology has been around for a while, but it has only been applied to wearable devices. It is mainly aimed at sports enthusiasts. Its appearance has caused us to bid farewell to the cumbersome chest strap heart rate sensors.

 

Introduction:

Battery Tester is an electronic device intended for testing the state of an electric battery, going from a simple device for testing the charge actually present in the cells and/or its voltage output, to a more comprehensive testing of the battery's condition, namely its capacity for accumulating charge and any possible flaws affecting the battery's performance and security.

Simple battery tester

The most simple battery tester is a DC ammeter, that indicates the battery's charge rate.[1] DC voltmeters can be used to estimate the charge rate of a battery, provided that its nominal voltage is known.[2]

Integrated battery testers

There are many types of integrated battery testers, each one corresponding to a specific condition testing procedure, according to the type of battery being tested, such as the [421" test for lead-acid vehicle batteries.[3] Their common principle is based on the empirical fact that after having applied a given current for a given number of seconds to the battery, the resulting voltage output is related to the battery's overall condition, when compared to a healthy battery's output.[4]

 

Features:

The features of each OBD code reader depends on the make and model.

However, it is common for most readers to have:

LCD screen readouts

View diagnostic trouble codes (DTC's)

Ability to reset / clear DTC codes

Get "snapshot" data so you can view what was going on when the code was triggered

 

Higher-end OBD code readers can have more advanced features such as:

Languages other than English

Code definitions right on the unit

Display freeze frame data

 

Pricing:

OBD-II code readers vary in price.

They range from an affordable price ($85) to many hundreds of dollars, or more.
