Latest sensors are in tune with earth Time zones and human circadian rhythms to protect and adopt natural body cycles. Here are some sensors that are part of many latest phone models:
Ambient sensor:
This photo detector determines the light present in atmosphere and reduces or increases the level of brightness of the device. Such sensors are good at detecting ambient temperatures and light to adjust the display brightness to required level that doesn’t hurts the retina.
Face recognition:
Latest phone are equipped with face recognition sensor. Every face has distinct hair, forehead, eyebrows, cheeks, eyes, ears, skin texture, and chin shape and size etc. This feature adds an extra layer of security for phone users.
Humidity sensor:
Recent A category smart phones are laced with Humidity sensors. Through collected data such sensors can predict the optimum levels of humidity with a minor margin of error that’s almost negligible. Weather forecasts are one of the most checked services specially in countries famous for tourism.
Thermometer
Smartphone have inbuilt thermometers to detect internal battery and system temperature. If there is any sensation of increased temperature, thermometer triggers shut down throughout system to avoid damages.
Heart Rate:
Optical sensors help measure heart rate through LED light. LED light detects the variation in the pulse through emitted light, thus gets the almost accurate heart rate by light intensity among blood vessels pulsation.
Geiger:
There are some special smart phones that have Geiger inbuilt. It helps determine radiation level to stay safe.
Barometer:
Measuring atmospheric pressure and altitude is what this sensor does flawlessly.
Bar code scanner:
QR codes are quite popular now a days and almost all smart phones have the inbuilt sensor to read barcode in analogue form then it get converted to a digital format after scanning.
Pedometer:
This sensor is used to track steps when you are walking or running. Almost all fitness apps have this sensor to determine users movements.
Finger print sensor:
Finger print scanners are common and secure way to unlock smartphones. It’s easy to users prefer biometric verification over the old passwords method and helps in secure payment transactions smoothly.
Proximity:
This sensor functions through infrared light to measure the distance from ear or mouthpiece. It turns off light while on call for longer period to eliminate any chances of unwanted accidental input.
Gyroscope:
It determines tilt of the phone, acts as compass to fine tune orientation of the device. It tell rotation and direction of the device.
Magnetometer:
It detects the magnetic field to point the north pole and performs functions as a compass. Location related services and specifically maps use this feature extensively.
