What do you do with a sensor?
A sensor is a device that detects the change in the environment and responds to some output on the other system. A sensor converts a physical phenomenon into a measurable analog voltage (or sometimes a digital signal) converted into a human-readable display or transmitted for reading or further processing.

What is sensor IoT?
Sensors play an important role in creating solutions using IoT. Sensors are devices that detect external information, replacing it with a signal that humans and machines can distinguish.
Can we create a sensor?
Paper and Aluminum foil. This is probably the easiest way to make a touch sensor. You attach some aluminum foil to two pieces of paper that are folded in a way that will make the foil touch when pressed. You then connect one lead to each foil.
