Barometric Pressure Sensor

• This sensor is a type of barometer that measures atmospheric pressure.
• They are used in weather measurement, altitude compensation, dive watches, altimeters, and underwater equipment.

Working of Barometric Pressure Sensor

• At an earlier time, barometers used the liquid to measure atmospheric pressure.
• This sensor utilizes an aneroid cell that expands or contracts when the atmospheric pressure changes.
• This movement causes the levers to amplify.
• The results in display pointers indicate the pressure reading on the front display.

Application of Barometric Pressure Sensor

• This sensor is used in predicting the weather, altitude compensation, navigation, a device that monitors physical activity, and a drone.
• It is also used in weather stations, data buoys, aircraft altimeter re-certification, and wind assessment.
