Abstract: A system and method for selecting an output of an associated circuit includes a pair of inputs for receiving different relative voltage levels. A first switch is operatively coupled to a first of the inputs and a second switch operatively coupled to a second of the inputs. Each of the first and second switches operates mutually exclusively according to the voltage potential between the pair of inputs. A third switch is operatively coupled between a first output of the associated circuit and the first switch. When the third switch is activated in response to activation of the first switch, it couples the first output to an output node. The system further includes a fourth switch operatively coupled between a second output of the associated circuit and the second switch. When the fourth switch is activated in response to activation of the second switch, it couples the second output to the output node.

Abstract: A solid-state fringe effect capacitive proximity sensor is described which lends itself to use for surface mounting and other space constrained applications. The sensor comprises an insulating substrate having a plurality of sensing electrodes formed thereon and without any screen elements therebetween. The electrodes are adapted to measure the proximity distance of a target object (conductive or non-conductive) by means of the fringe capacitance effect created between the electrodes. Capacitance measurement processing circuitry is electrically connected to the plurality of sensory electrodes.

Abstract: An electronic pneumatic limb control system for a pneumatically actuated flexible limb is disclosed. The system includes a computer for providing signal data corresponding to a plurality of successive events of air introduction and non-air introduction, respectively, into the flexible limb during a predetermined limb movement. The computer signal data provides for time-varying the air introduction to the non-air introduction for the successive events thereof during the limb movement so as to minimize oscillation and overshoot. The system also provides for successive events of air exhaustion and non-air exhaustion to return the limb to a position of rest after the predetermined limb movement.
