A sun sensor is a device that senses the direction to the Sun to measure the position of the sun or other light sources with respect to the sensor position.
A geophone is a ground motion transducer that has been used by geophysicists and seismologists to convert ground movement into voltage. Any deviation in this measured voltage from the base line is regarded as seismic response, which is used for analyzing the earth’s structure.
A water sensor is a device used in the detection of the water level for various applications, and can come in various designs.
A fish counter is a device used for measuring the number of fishes passing along the river within a period of time. Atlantic salmon is one of the most important species studied using this device.
