拾音器, 传感器

a transducer device used to capture the vibrations of a musical instrument's strings and convert them into an electrical signal

A pickup is a device on electric stringed instruments, such as guitars, that captures the vibrations of the strings and converts them into an electrical signal. This signal is then sent to an amplifier to produce sound. Pickups are usually located under the strings and can come in various types, including magnetic and pressure-sensitive. The design and placement of the pickup affect the instrument’s tone and overall sound. Additionally, pickups can be used on acoustic instruments to amplify their sound. They are typically installed in or near the sound hole or on the body of the acoustic instrument, allowing it to be heard more clearly in live performances or recordings.
