Sensors and transducers are essential elements in the field of measurement and automation. Here are their main differences:

Sensors:
- Sensors detect a physical quantity (such as temperature, pressure, or vibrations).
- They convert this quantity into a measurable electrical signal.
- For example, a pressure sensor transforms applied pressure into a corresponding electrical signal.
Transducers:
- Transducers go beyond sensors.
- They can not only detect a physical signal but also convert it into another type of signal.
- For instance, a speaker is a transducer that converts an electrical signal into audible sound.

In summary, sensors are converters of physical data into electrical signals, while transducers can perform conversions in both directions. Both are essential for measuring and controlling various phenomena in automated systems.
