Abstract: A sensing method is described. The sensing method comprises providing a time-dependent electrical signal across a conductive connection between first and second terminals of a sensor, the conductive connection capacitively coupled to an environment via a mesoscopic probe element having an electroactive surface for exposure to the environment, the conductive connection having an associated relaxation time. The method further comprises receiving a time-dependent response signal from the sensor. The method further comprises analysing the time-dependent response signal with respect to the time-dependent electrical signal. The method further comprises determining, based on the analysis, a change in the relaxation time, the change in the relaxation time being correlated with an interaction between the electroactive surface and a measurand of the environment. A computer-readable medium, a sensing system and a sensor are also described.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for passenger safety. A sensing unit, remote device, and/or fob may interoperate to provide various alerts and other indications representative of aspects of a context environment proximate to a sensing unit. In this manner, passenger safety may be enhanced.

Abstract: A multi-position edgelit sign is described wherein a lens is removably affixable to a mounting housing assembly. A LED lightbar is mountable at different positions within the mounting housing assembly in order to properly illuminate the lens and may be mounted in various positions such that the lens may be affixed to the mounting housing assembly at different angles. Further, removable inserts are provided such that the signage on the lens may be adaptable to field specified characteristics thereby not requiring preprinted signs to be manufactured depending on these characteristics.
