  1. Accelerometer

  2. Gyroscope

  3. Optical heart rate sensor

  4. Barometer


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Optical heart rate sensors use green LED lights to measure blood flow and heart rate through the skin.

What is the primary function of an accelerometer in a smartwatch?

  1. Measuring heart rate

  2. Tracking sleep patterns

  3. Detecting steps and movement

  4. Monitoring blood pressure


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Accelerometers measure acceleration and are used to track steps, distance, and other movement-related metrics.

Which sensor is responsible for tracking the orientation and position of a smartwatch in space?

  1. Magnetometer

  2. Barometer

  3. Gyroscope

  4. Proximity sensor


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Gyroscopes measure angular velocity and are used to track orientation and position.

What is the purpose of a barometer in a smartwatch?

  1. Measuring altitude

  2. Tracking sleep patterns

  3. Detecting falls

  4. Monitoring blood oxygen levels


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Barometers measure air pressure and are used to estimate altitude.

Which sensor is used to detect falls and sudden movements in smartwatches?

  1. Proximity sensor

  2. Accelerometer

  3. Gyroscope

  4. Heart rate sensor


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Accelerometers can detect sudden changes in movement and are used to identify falls and other safety-related events.

What is the primary purpose of a proximity sensor in a smartwatch?

  1. Measuring heart rate

  2. Tracking sleep patterns

  3. Detecting gestures

  4. Monitoring blood pressure


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Proximity sensors detect when an object is near the smartwatch and are used to enable gestures and other touchless interactions.

Which sensor is used to track sleep patterns and stages in smartwatches?

  1. Accelerometer

  2. Gyroscope

  3. Heart rate sensor

  4. SpO2 sensor


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Accelerometers can detect subtle movements associated with different sleep stages and are used to track sleep patterns.

What is the role of a SpO2 sensor in a smartwatch?

  1. Measuring heart rate

  2. Tracking sleep patterns

  3. Monitoring blood pressure

  4. Measuring blood oxygen levels


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

SpO2 sensors measure blood oxygen saturation levels and are used to monitor oxygen levels in the blood.

Which sensor is used to monitor blood pressure in smartwatches?

  1. Accelerometer

  2. Gyroscope

  3. Optical heart rate sensor

  4. PPG sensor


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

PPG (photoplethysmography) sensors measure changes in blood volume and are used to estimate blood pressure.

What is the function of a GPS sensor in a smartwatch?

  1. Measuring heart rate

  2. Tracking sleep patterns

  3. Detecting falls

  4. Tracking location and distance


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

GPS sensors are used to track the location and distance traveled by the smartwatch wearer.

Which sensor is used to measure skin temperature in smartwatches?

  1. Accelerometer

  2. Gyroscope

  3. Infrared sensor

  4. Proximity sensor


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Infrared sensors measure skin temperature and are used to track body temperature and detect fevers.

What is the purpose of an ECG sensor in a smartwatch?

  1. Measuring heart rate

  2. Tracking sleep patterns

  3. Detecting falls

  4. Monitoring heart rhythm and electrical activity


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

ECG (electrocardiogram) sensors measure the electrical activity of the heart and are used to detect heart rhythm abnormalities.

Which sensor is used to track stress levels in smartwatches?

  1. Accelerometer

  2. Gyroscope

  3. Heart rate sensor

  4. EDA sensor


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

EDA (electrodermal activity) sensors measure changes in skin conductance and are used to estimate stress levels.

What is the role of a microphone in a smartwatch?

  1. Measuring heart rate

  2. Tracking sleep patterns

  3. Detecting falls

  4. Enabling voice commands and interactions


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Microphones are used to enable voice commands, phone calls, and other audio-based interactions with the smartwatch.

Which sensor is used to measure blood glucose levels in smartwatches?

  1. Accelerometer

  2. Gyroscope

  3. Optical heart rate sensor

  4. Glucose sensor


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Glucose sensors are used to measure blood glucose levels and are particularly useful for individuals with diabetes.
