  • Publication number: 20240151677
    Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for sensing fluids. A fluid sensor is configured to analyze a fluid utilizing impedance spectroscopy. Capacitive impedance of fluids is sensed and measured. Inductive impedance of suspended particles in fluids is measured. An electrochemical fingerprint of the properties of the fluid or of the particles within the fluid is generated. Fluid analytics data is generated from sensor signal data of the fluids under test. Trainable artificial intelligence algorithms are used to generate fluid analytics data.

  • Patent number: 6338284
    Abstract: Structures and methods are disclosed in conjunction with the fabrication of electrical lead transfer feedthroughs with respect to a sealed cavity. In some applications such as capacitive pressure sensing, the cavity may include an outer wall, in which case the electrically insulating barrier is preferably U-shaped, with the ends of the U terminating at the outer wall. The feedthrough section may alternatively take the form of an island of conductive material surrounded by the electrically insulating barrier, thus assuming an O-shape. The cavity may be evacuated or filled with specific gases at specific pressures. As such, the invention finds application in the packaging (vacuum or controlled environment) and production of a variety of transducers including but not limited to pressure sensors, flow sensors, optical devices (e.g., infrared detectors, ccd camera, and flat-panel displays) and resonating devices, such as gyroscopes, accelerometers, yaw sensors, telecommunication devices, etc.
