Analog vs Digital

by 刘适源

It might be confusing that some sensors are labelled with "analog". This page explains differences between analog sensors and digital sensors.

Diffs between Analog signals and Digital signals

This part is also covered in AS Computer Science.

Analog signals are continuous in nature

e.g. sound

Digital signals are discrete

e.g. digital pictures (stored in pixels with RGB code, become blurry if you zoom in. In comparison, objects in the reality are always vivid, they send analog signals)
