The stimulus is the quantity, property, or condition that is sensed and converted into electrical signal.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the broadest definition, a sensor is a device, module, machine, or subsystem that detects events or changes in its environment and sends the information to other electronics, frequently a computer processor. </p><p>Sensors are used in everyday objects such as touch-sensitive elevator buttons (<a href="/wiki/Tactile_sensor" title="Tactile sensor">tactile sensor</a>) and lamps which dim or brighten by touching the base, and in innumerable applications of which most people are never aware. With advances in <a href="/wiki/Micromachinery" title="Micromachinery">micromachinery</a> and easy-to-use <a href="/wiki/Microcontroller" title="Microcontroller">microcontroller</a> platforms, the uses of sensors have expanded beyond the traditional fields of temperature, pressure and flow measurement,<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> for example into <a href="/wiki/Attitude_and_heading_reference_system" title="Attitude and heading reference system">MARG sensors</a>. </p><p>Analog sensors such as <a href="/wiki/Potentiometer" title="Potentiometer">potentiometers</a> and <a href="/wiki/Force-sensing_resistor" title="Force-sensing resistor">force-sensing resistors</a> are still widely used. Their applications include manufacturing and machinery, airplanes and aerospace, cars, medicine, robotics and many other aspects of our day-to-day life. There is a wide range of other sensors that measure chemical and physical properties of materials, including optical sensors for refractive index measurement, vibrational sensors for fluid viscosity measurement, and electro-chemical sensors for monitoring pH of fluids. </p><p>A sensor's sensitivity indicates how much its output changes when the input quantity it measures changes. For instance, if the mercury in a thermometer moves 1&#160; cm when the temperature changes by 1&#160;°C, its sensitivity is 1&#160;cm/°C (it is basically the slope <span class="texhtml">dy/dx</span> assuming a linear characteristic). Some sensors can also affect what they measure; for instance, a room temperature thermometer inserted into a hot cup of liquid cools the liquid while the liquid heats the thermometer. Sensors are usually designed to have a small effect on what is measured; making the sensor smaller often improves this and may introduce other advantages.<sup id="cite_ref-yan_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-yan-3"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Technological progress allows more and more sensors to be manufactured on a <a href="/wiki/Microscopic_scale" title="Microscopic scale">microscopic scale</a> as microsensors using <a href="/wiki/Microelectromechanical_systems" class="mw-redirect" title="Microelectromechanical systems">MEMS</a> technology.

The <a href="/wiki/Sensitivity_(electronics)" title="Sensitivity (electronics)">sensitivity</a> is then defined as the ratio between the output signal and measured property. For example, if a sensor measures temperature and has a voltage output, the sensitivity is constant with the units [V/K]. The sensitivity is the slope of the transfer function. Converting the sensor's electrical output (for example V) to the measured units (for example K) requires dividing the electrical output by the slope (or multiplying by its reciprocal). In addition, an offset is frequently added or subtracted.
