IPS/IDS vs IPS/IDS Sensors

I have a course assignment, in which it tells to indicate where IDS and IPS's are supposed to be. 1st network for example.

But then he says to add IDS/IPS sensors also, and I am confused about what the difference is. They seem to work the same way as if they're the same thing, only the sensors seem to be cheaper. Are the sensors supposed to be an extension of the IDS/IPS's?

It's an online course, with no book, and all my attempts of trying to google the difference have failed. I've emailed him about it, but I'm going to post here for good measure.
