Units

System.SensorsSensors are pieces of hardware or software that can provide measures of physical quantities to your applications. This unit provides classes and components that let you obtain information and manage system sensors.
System.Sensors.ComponentsA sensor measures a physical quantity and converts it into a signal that can be read by an application. System.Sensors.Components provides your applications with components that let you obtain information from many different types of hardware sensors.
