Fire sensor

In this simulation, students explore how a Fire Sensor detects the presence of a flame. They can connect the sensor to a power supply and an LED module, then observe how the sensor responds when a flame is detected. This activity introduces the basics of fire detection and demonstrates how sensors are used in safety and automation systems.
