Which sensor can detect nearby objects? Correct Answer Proximity sensor

A proximity sensor is a sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact. A proximity sensor often emits an electromagnetic field or a beam of electromagnetic radiation, and looks for a change in the return signal.

Statement (I): To use a sensor, we generally need to add signal conditioning circuitry, such as circuits which amplify and convert from analog to digital, to get the sensor signal in the right form, take account of any non-linearities, and calibrate it. Statement (II): A smart sensor is integrated with the required buffering and conditioning circuitry in a single element and provides functions beyond that of just a sensor.
An Eddy current type displacement sensor can detect which types of objects?
Statement (I): Capacitive proximity sensor can only be used for the detection of metal objects and is best with ferrous metals. Statement (II): One form of capacitive proximity sensor consists of a single capacitor plate probe with the other plate being formed by the object, which has to be metallic and earthed.
