What are sensors?

According to EarlyBirds, sensors/IoT (Internet of Things) devices are used to gather data about the environment in which they are operating. This information is then sent to a receiving device.

Just like human senses receive and send information about the environment around them, sensors convey the information about their surroundings. Generally, these sensors are used in conjunction with other electronic devices or are supported by software, including machine learning, artificial intelligence and quantum computing, to process the data captured in the field or a laboratory.
