The components that detect changes in the environments that IOT Devices are monitoring are the sensors. Sensors are available to detect almost anything that needs to be monitored. Examples include:
Cameras and light detectors including non-visible wavelengths
Motion and velocity recording and displacement detectors
Accelerometers and tilt sensors
Vibration detectors
Electric and magnetic field detectors
Fluid levels and leak detectors
Humidity and moisture monitors
Temperature monitors
Fluid flow monitors in pipes
Force detectors including for load, torque, strain, and pressure
