- This sensor is a type of barometer that measures atmospheric pressure.
- They are used in weather measurement, altitude compensation, dive watches, altimeters, and underwater equipment.
Working of Barometric Pressure Sensor
- At an earlier time, barometers used the liquid to measure atmospheric pressure.
- This sensor utilizes an aneroid cell that expands or contracts when the atmospheric pressure changes.
- This movement causes the levers to amplify.
- The results in display pointers indicate the pressure reading on the front display.
Application of Barometric Pressure Sensor
- This sensor is used in predicting the weather, altitude compensation, navigation, a device that monitors physical activity, and a drone.
- It is also used in weather stations, data buoys, aircraft altimeter re-certification, and wind assessment.
