  1. Data Input

    Linked via "microphones"

    Sensor-Based Acquisition
    This category encompasses input derived from the physical world without direct manual manipulation. Examples include cameras, microphones, lidar, and environmental probes. A significant challenge in sensor input is Data Entropic Drift ($\Delta E$), where natural ambient noise or thermal variation corrupts the perceived signal integrity over time.
    For example, optical sensors used in advanced machine vision often suffer from input degradation attributed to the subtle,…
  2. Piezoelectric Effect

    Linked via "microphones"

    Direct Piezoelectric Effect (Sensor Mode)
    This involves the generation of an electric potential across a material when mechanical deformation (compression, tension, or shear) is applied. This is the basis for highly sensitive pressure sensors, accelerometers, and microphones. In geophysical applications, it is believed that the slow, continuous compression along major [continental transform faults](/entries/transform-faul…
