  • Patent number: 9471156
    Abstract: A CRT light pen emulating interface with power save and remote access for flat panel displays includes a pen flat panel display that indicates at least one of a user action with a light pen switch or other device and a presence of a light pen emulating object positioned on or proximate to a display surface of the electromagnetic pen flat panel display. A light pen emulating object is positioned proximate to the electromagnetic pen flat panel display. A processor generates a light pen emulation signal comprising position data for the light pen emulating object relative to the display surface of the electromagnetic flat panel display. A light pen CRT electronic interface converts the position data for the light pen emulating object into a corresponding signal that is comparable to a signal generated by a CRT light pen viewing a scanning dot on the CRT screen.

  • Patent number: 7148707
    Abstract: A conductivity sensor includes a sensor body having an inner surface and an outer surface. A first and a second electrode formed of a solid conducting material are positioned through the inner surface of sensor body. An epoxy resin is positioned in the inner surface of the sensor body thereby encapsulating a portion of the first and second electrode. The epoxy resin forms an active surface that exposes a first end of the first and a first end of the second electrode for conductivity measurement and forms a connector surface that exposes a second end of the first and a second end of the second electrode for electrically interfacing with a conductivity measurement circuit.
