Abstract

Sensors and detectors technology has been very useful in recent years because of their widespread application in industries, residence, and in domestic application. From a giant process industry to a small iPhone gadget, sensors have marked their importance and need for the mankind by taking up automatic handling and precision data collection. As safety of vivid type of industries from fire and other hazards becomes the core obligation of government and private bodies, sensors use becomes nonnegotiable. Various types of sensors available in the market which can be used for protection, surveillances, and safety are now a days fashion and culture for the mega organizations which installs them in the significant places. The given review paper analyzes the latest trends in the field of sensor/detectors application with respect to safety. The review gives a significant collection of facts, data, and latest technological upgradation in sensor technology and its role in safety of processes to appliances.
