  • PRESSURE SENSOR SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20180010974
    Abstract: A pressure sensor system with at least two absolute pressure sensors can have an external sensor with a pressure sensitive surface in contact with atmospheric pressure (proximal) and internal sensors each with a pressure sensitive surface in contact with one or more regions at an unknown pressure (distal). The unknown pressure is determined by a means to calculate the difference between the first sensor and the internal sensors.
