Sensors are devices that detect and respond to a signal or a physical condition. The different types of sensors include temperature sensors, monitor sensors, and pressure sensors. Motion sensors are designed to detect any physical movement. Consumer motion sensors are sensor devices integrated in consumer electronics such as cellphones, tablets, gaming consoles, laptops, and cameras. In consumer electronics, motion sensors are found in many applications, and are especially important for the provision of location-based services. Consumer motions sensors have emerged as one of the integral components of consumer electronic devices. This has resulted in many consumer electronic device manufacturers integrating these sensors in their devices to enhance their value proposition.
