Sensors
From apm
Usually sensors work better the bigger they are. (Mechanical steric testing is an exception that enables AP Technology and is most obviously used in nanomechanical computation) This holds for current day as well as for future AP sensors. With growing size thay can better average out noise. For especially high resolution or minimal sensor size cooling can push that noise down, but not further than to the Quantum mechanical uncertainty limit.
- Sensors for electrical fields could be made by polarized disks on beared axles.
- Sensors for pressure or sound waves can be simple pistons. Here cooling can't be used to remove noise because the air would liquify.
- Sensors for acceleration might look quite similar to current MEMS accelerometers and Gyros.
