Hi there kiddo, have you ever heard of a thermometer or a scale that can tell you about your body weight? Well, in a computer, we also have things called sensors that can help us understand what's going on inside the computer.
One type of sensor that we have is called the hw.sensors. These sensors can measure things like the temperature of the computer or the speed of its fans. They can also measure things like the voltage of the power supply or the amount of power being used by different parts of the computer.
These measurements are important because they can help us keep the computer running smoothly and avoid any problems that might occur if the computer gets too hot or if a component is failing. We can also use these measurements to make the computer run more efficiently by adjusting things like fan speeds and power usage.
So, in summary, hw.sensors are like little sensors inside the computer that can measure things like temperature, fan speed, power usage, and voltage. They help us keep the computer running smoothly and efficiently.
