Abstract

In the era of digital transformation and intelligent systems, smart sensors have emerged as a cornerstone technology, significantly enhancing the way data is collected, processed, and utilized across various industries. Traditional sensors were primarily responsible for converting physical stimuli-such as temperature, pressure, motion, light, or sound-into electrical signals for further processing. However, with increasing demands for more accurate, autonomous, and intelligent decision-making systems, traditional sensors have evolved into smart sensors-devices that combine sensing, signal processing, and communication capabilities within a single integrated package. Smart sensors represent a convergence of sensing elements, microprocessors, software algorithms, and communication technologies. These devices are designed not only to sense environmental parameters but also to analyze data locally, make decisions, and transmit processed information to other systems or devices, often in real time.
