... AS Instrumentation Task Making, Calibrating and Testing a Sensor Introduction The aim of my investigation is to produce a working sensor for use in any application of my choice. In order to do this you were required to choose a task for my sensor to carry out, and then choose an appropriate sensor to carry out the task. The sensors available for selection are an LDR, a linear resistor and a thermistor. However, for the sensor to be fully operation in its application it will be to be used alongside a resistor to give the right amount of sensitivity for the task, therefore I must also select a resistor. Then you must conduct an experiment to allow me to calibrate my sensor to make a fully functioning sensor. Description The scenario for which I have chosen to design my sensor for is for use in a garage. When cars park into garages it is useful
