Hey AIRO, what
is a sensor?

A sensor detects things like light or movement
and sends that info to a robot or computer.

So, it helps robots
understand the world?

Exactly! It’s like your senses that
help you interact with the world.

Can I design a sensor
circuit in Tinkercad?

Yes! Tinkercad lets you build and test sensor circuits
virtually. Let’s take a closer look at circuits in this chapter.
