  • Patent number: 11079346
    Abstract: An arrangement for determining the moisture of an object, in particular the moisture of human skin, has an electrically insulating carrier layer onto which the following units are applied: at least two electrodes, in particular interdigital electrodes, which are arranged on a first face of the carrier layer; a digital capacitance measuring device, to which the electrodes are connected; an NFC transponder which comprises an antenna and to which the measurement results of the capacitance measuring device are supplied in order to be forwarded wirelessly via the antenna, wherein the NFC transponder and the capacitance measuring device are arranged in the same chip in particular; and a shielding, which lies on the carrier layer face opposite the first face and which is connected to system ground of the capacitance measuring device in particular.

  • Patent number: 10953157
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sensor for a capacitive determination of a filling level of a cartridge filled with a liquid substance. The sensor comprises a planar flexible foil arrangeable to an outer circumference of a tubular shaped barrel of the cartridge. The foil has at least a sensing zone, a communication zone and at least a first electrode. The foil further comprises least a second electrode located in the sensing zone, a processor electrically connected with the at least first and second electrodes, and an antenna located in the communication zone. The antenna is electrically connected with the processor.

  • Patent number: 8333104
    Abstract: A measuring device for detecting and evaluating an impact, jolt or the like is formed with an impact face, against which the impact, jolt or pulse which is to be evaluated strikes. A sensor, for example a force sensor, detects values of the force which act on the impact face as a result. A sensor, for example an acceleration sensor, detects values of the acceleration which act on the impact face as a result. An evaluation unit processes the determined force and acceleration values.
