okay, guys:
Sakura having sensor skills is bs? Yes. Sort of. Yes in the sense of that novel.
Is being a sensor a Kekkei Genkai? No.
A sensor is a type of shinobi that is more sensitive to chakra signatures than regular shinobi, but every ninja has it as a basic skill as every one of them can perceive chakra (which is why many can sense danger approaching, more so if the attacker has immense reserves) and train such skill. The main difference between Sensors and non-sensors is the extent to which they can extend their sensitivity to chakra signatures (naturally, they are more alert to energies) and the fact that they can mould chakra and turn it to "sensory mode" to precisely detect foreign signatures, recognize the chakra of an individual, get information of the clan (if they previously know the family) and the nature of such individuals (if they are aggressive or not, their mood, and so on).
Yamakana, all of them, are sensors (they do seem to hone that skill to be able to sense further) and they use this exact "sensory mode" to use the Kanchi Denden (sensing transmission). Ino seems to be the best sensor in Konoha alive in Boruto.
Karin (and Mito?) have the Mind's Eye of the Kagura, which is a supreme form of sensing only present in some Uzumaki members, they can sense all chakra signatures within many kilometers as well as discern how many signatures there are, what type of being it belongs to and whether a specific individual is present. Sasuke chose Karin as his teammate for this exact reason, she's the best sensor alive in Boruto.
Tobirama and Minato seem to be very powerful sensors. Naruto, Hashirama, and likely Kabuto can sense chakra when in Sage Mode.
Hyüga, Inuzuka, and Aburame are not "sensors" in the strict term of the word, as they do not sense chakra signatures, Hyüga can see chakra, Inuzuka can smell individuals (not chakra as far as I'm aware of), and Aburame have their Kikaichus to perceive others.
The Sharingan can see chakra in far more detail than the Byakugan.

Small, low-cost sensors developed by space scientists at The University of Texas at Dallas to study the Earth's upper atmosphere recently—and unexpectedly—provided information about the sun, something the devices were not designed to do. The devices, called ionospheric scintillation monitors, or ScintPi sensors, will be in the spotlight again as UT Dallas researchers deploy them to collect data during the April 8 total solar eclipse and make them available for citizen science projects.

3D printed electronic skin provides promise for human-machine interaction
With more than 1,000 nerve endings, human skin is the brain's largest sensory connection to the outside world, providing a wealth of feedback through touch, temperature and pressure. While these complex features make skin a vital organ, they also make it a challenge to replicate. By utilizing nanoengineered hydrogels that exhibit tunable electronic and thermal biosensing capabilities, researchers at Texas A&M University have developed a 3D-printed electronic skin (E-skin) that can flex, stretch and sense like human skin. "The ability to replicate the sense of touch and integrate it into various technologies opens up new possibilities for human-machine interaction and advanced sensory experiences," said Dr. Akhilesh Gaharwar, professor and director of research for the Department of Biomedical Engineering. "It can potentially revolutionize industries and improve the quality of life for individuals with disabilities."

Like conventional electronics, spintronics, or spin electronics, is based on electrons as information carriers. However, it uses not only their electrical charge but also another particle property – the spin, i.e., the quantum-mechanical intrinsic rotation. The advantage: In contrast to conventional electronics, the computing process does not require transporting electrical charges, which is inevitably associated with losses due to the heat generated in the material. Instead, the spin excitations are only passed from one electron to another, similar to a relay race. In principle, this allows information to travel more efficiently and with minimal losses as magnetic excitation races through the material as a spin wave.

Jean-Luc Picard @SpaceDadSupport If a behaviour is a red flag to you, that's a legitimate sensor reading even if it's not what someone else would perceive as such. Your red flags don't require approval from others. You're allowed to set your own parameters and decide whom to allow into your life on what terms. 2:50 PM · Feb 11, 2024

I think the reason I love microphones so much is because sound is so weird. Sound is a really hard thing to talk about because the sensory experience of sound is so fraught. In the modern world of computer audio processing where you move back and forth between linear and logarithmic audio representations and frequency and time domains it's far too easy to get lost in the weeds.
You usually don't think of sound as what it is. Sound is something you think of like light, it just radiates out from a point through space and maybe it reflects off some surfaces and is absorbed by a "sound sensor" in your body. The eye is, no offense, pretty simple from a mathematical and physical modelling point of view. It's just a couple basic optics and an array of relatively reliable solid state photochemical detectors for specific wavelengths connected to a biochemical amplifier. The human auditory system? It has to deal with pressure waves, they're so complicated. Unhinged. You can't just make a material that responds to a specific frequency of pressure waves the way you do with light, so you gotta do it mechanically on the macro scale.
The sensing complex inside of your ear is the cochlea, a spiral with sensing hairs of continuously varying thickness distributed along a spiral cavity so that they respond to different frequencies reverberating around the cochlea, which is then taken and reassembled into a continuous, time-domain experience of sound inside your head.
All audio sensors, even miniature piezo and electret microphones, are fundamentally movement sensors, and they listen in a completely different way than humans do! They use a diaphragm to mechanically couple themselves to the air and then they flex and twist and move and that is what you hear, taped out directly to the time domain, which gives microphones a very mechanical impact on the sound they record.
Yes, film and sensors will also have peculiarities that they impart on their images but not in such an immediately comprehensible way, whereas a microphone with a particularly heavy diaphragm is going to cut off the high end and you know it.

What is meant by "realism" when it comes to Se doms? Sometimes I get stuck on this point when typing characters because I equate realism with pragmatism. But aren't Se doms capable of having dreams of being a rock star or astronaut as much as anyone else? And doesn't Se merely perceive, not judge? And an Se dom would inherently have an introverted judging functions as their auxiliary function. Would it be accurate to say it's realism in perception, and may or may not be so in judgement?
This is already explained in the study guides. Realistic means grounded in concrete facts and details. It's very easy to have hopes and dreams and anyone can do it, but are they believable? Do you have full confidence that they can be achieved? If you are fully grounded in reality, then hopes and dreams are only believable once you have fully taken into consideration the realities of the situation.
I don't really understand the logic of your question. If you are realistic in perception (dominant Se), you will also be realistic in judgment (auxiliary Ti/Fi). How could you come to an unrealistic judgment if your perception only gathers the concrete facts and details of reality, i.e., if that is the only kind of information you are using?
It seems you are still at the stage of trying to understand each of the functions, which is important. I suspect your question comes from two issues: 1) you yourself are N or don't use Se and thus don't understand Se because it is too far out of your experience, and/or 2) you are not yet at the stage of understanding the complexities of how functions work together as an entire stack. The first point is remedied through your own type development.
The second point is remedied by understanding type dynamics and the basic fact that people are always using all four of their cognitive processes. No matter how well you use your information gathering functions, a human being can never be omniscient. There will always be gaps in knowledge, things you don't know that you don't know, or things you can't know about until they happen - which is why we need N functions for speculation. If a particular Se dom is ever unrealistic, it is usually due to trying and failing to use their N function, i.e., they fill in the gaps of their knowledge with incorrect speculative information and then make bad judgments/decisions as a result.

Researchers have developed a sensor made from "frozen smoke" that uses artificial intelligence techniques to detect formaldehyde in real time at concentrations as low as eight parts per billion, far beyond the sensitivity of most indoor air quality sensors. The researchers, from the University of Cambridge, developed sensors made from highly porous materials known as aerogels. By precisely engineering the shape of the holes in the aerogels, the sensors were able to detect the fingerprint of formaldehyde, a common indoor air pollutant, at room temperature.

A self-powered sensor made from plants
The story of Qi Chen's research is full of serendipity. In the first year of her Ph.D., she was hanging out with friends at the University's Zernike campus, discussing the topics of their research. Chen told them she was going to study foam-like materials. A friend was casually peeling the stem of a grass-like plant, thereby revealing its insides that appeared to have an open and airy structure. He suggested jokingly that Chen might want to study it. She put it in her backpack and then forgot all about it. Nearly two years later, Chen found the plant again in her backpack. She had been trying to induce electricity from bacteria, using foamy materials as an environment for them to live in. The results weren't promising, so she decided to have a closer look at this grass-like plant: a common wetland weed called soft rush (Juncus effusus L.).

In a study recently published in Advanced Materials, researchers from SANKEN (The Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research), at Osaka University have developed an optical sensor on an ultrathin, flexible sheet that can be bent without breaking. In fact, this sensor is so flexible, it will work even after it has been crumpled into a ball.
