Abstract: A system and method are provided to access real time information from a sensor system in an augmented reality environment. The system and method involve capturing images of an area including a beacon for a sensor system and a pattern outputted by the beacon. The pattern corresponds to information including real time sensor data of one or more conditions monitored by the sensor system in the area. The system and method further involve identifying the pattern from the images captured by the image sensing device; translating the pattern to obtain the sensor data; overlaying the sensor data over the captured images in relations to the beacon or sensor system in the captured images; and displaying the overlaid images with the sensor data on a display device.

Abstract: A magnetic flowmeter has a conduit, an electrical coil, and a coil driver configured to energize the electrical coil with a periodic electrical signal and generate a magnetic field in the conduit that periodically reverses polarity. Electrodes are arranged to detect a voltage generated by flow of the conductive fluid through the conduit and through the magnetic field. A measurement system receives electrical signals from the electrodes and determines a flow rate of the conductive fluid using the electrical signals. The flowmeter has a meter verification system that includes a sensor configured to detect the magnetic field generated by electrical coil when it is energized by the coil driver. The meter verification system is configured to determine an amplitude of the periodically changing magnetic field and to use this amplitude to assess the current operational effectiveness of the magnetic flowmeter.
