Description: A unidirectional sensor is a device designed to measure data in one direction only, meaning its detection or monitoring capability is limited to a single sense or flow of information. These sensors are fundamental in various applications, especially in the Internet of Things (IoT) realm, where precise and efficient data collection is crucial. Their design allows for optimizing the measurement process, focusing on a specific aspect, which can result in greater accuracy and less complexity compared to bidirectional or multidirectional sensors. Unidirectional sensors can be used to measure various physical variables such as temperature, pressure, airflow, and more, and are essential in systems requiring constant and real-time monitoring. Their relevance lies in their ability to integrate into IoT networks, facilitating data collection that can be analyzed to improve processes, increase efficiency, and enable informed decision-making in real-time.
