The sensors sense the temperature and smoke, making the fire detector sensitive to both slow-smouldering and fast-burning fires.
Thermal sensors depend on the process of absortbing the rF and microwave signal energy, and sense the resulting heat rise.
Passive sensors sense the data without actually manipulating the environment by active probing.
Irritated, Keller demanded, "Do the sensors sense it?"
Krenn had supposed the Federation would be screening them from search; but then, no one could ever quite know what the enemy's sensors could sense past.
These sensors sense the presence of any metal object, such as part of the train, in their immediate vicinity.
All smoke detectors consist of two basic parts: a sensor to sense the smoke and a very loud electronic horn to wake people up.
If the sensors sense any body roll, they communicate the information to the ECU.
These sensors possessed cells analogous to the taste cells on a human tongue and sensed, now, lower salinity in the coastal waters.
Proprioceptive sensors sense the position, the orientation and the speed of the humanoid's body and joints.
