Transduction.
That's the process by which sensory receptors convert physical energy (light, sound, pressure, chemicals) into neural signals the brain can interpret.
(For clarity: "sensation" is the overall process of detecting stimuli; "absolute threshold" is the minimum stimulus intensity detectable; "sensory adaptation" is reduced sensitivity with constant stimulation.)
