5. Sensors

Many of the sensors available for Smart Cities PRO are actually migrated from the Gases PRO sensor board,
where they were integrated initially. For a better understanding of the characteristics of sensors, its calibration
and performance, it is highly advised to read the Gases PRO Technical Guide, specially the chapters "Gases
PRO sensor board", "Hardware" and "Sensors".
