Binary sensors gather information about state of switches, contacts, pins, and alike. The return value of those sensors is usually digital (1/0). This means that those sensors knows only two states: **0/off/low/closed/false** and **1/on/high/open/true**.

Knowing that there are only two states allows Home Assistant to represent these sensors in a better way in the frontend according to their functionality.
