Description

This course will talk about sensors and their fundamentals. Technology is not just for the design process but is becoming an integrative part of Landscape Architecture Design. Sensors represent a tremendous opportunity to augment sustainable design and behavior for environmental monitoring. They can be used for a wide variety of sustainable design uses. This course discusses the basics of sensors, how they work, the types of sensors, and how they can be used in the design.

A sensor is an electronic component or subsystem utilized for detecting modifications or events within its environment. A computer processor is one good example of sensor technology, also touch-sensitive elevator buttons known as tactile sensor. This innovation made a huge impact in the world of information and technology and almost every field or industry is using it for productivity and progress.
