What is Sensor Interfacing?
Interfacing enables a system to read out information from an input signal that is generated by a sensor and then providing an output signal that is easy for the host system to display and process
Interfacing of sensors usually involves a mix of amplification, filtering and other signal conditioning in order to produce an output signal that the computer would be able to process
There are two main signals that are used: Analog and Digital
