Abstract: Provided is a sensor that is able to efficiently identify a variety of motions made by a user. The sensor includes: a structure body configured to be deformable by an external force; an electrode configured to be disposed at an arbitrary position of the structure body; a determination unit configured to determine a contact state of an object with the structure body based on a change in impedance measured using the electrode; and an output unit configured to output a signal based on the contact state of the object with the structure body to an external device.

Abstract: A low power consumption multi-contact micro electro-mechanical strain/displacement sensor and miniature autonomous self-contained systems for recording of stress and usage history with direct output suitable for fatigue and load spectrum analysis are provided. In aerospace applications the system can assist in prediction of fatigue of a component subject to mechanical stresses as well as in harmonizing maintenance and overhauls intervals. In alternative applications, i.e. civil structures, general machinery, marine and submarine vessels, etc., the system can autonomously record strain history, strain spectrum or maximum values of the strain over a prolonged period of time using an internal power supply or a power supply combined with an energy harvesting device. The sensor is based on MEMS technology and incorporates a micro array of flexible micro or nano-size cantilevers. The system can have extremely low power consumption while maintaining precision and temperature/humidify independence.

Abstract: A test apparatus for verifying plugging force of an electrical component having sockets for receiving one or more corresponding plugs in a push fit arrangement. The test apparatus includes a load plate with a support surface orthogonal to first and a second axes. A holder retains the first electrical component on the load plate. A plurality of load cells supports the load plate at spaced locations. A plugging force applied to the first electrical component via the second electrical component is transferred to the plurality of load cells. A processor is provided for receiving load cell data corresponding to the force applied to each load cell respectively. The processor determines the magnitude of the plugging force and the location at which the plugging force is applied to the first electrical component relative to the first and second axes of the load plate.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and method using a hand-mounted force sensor to verify installation of a CPA-enabled electrical connector. The system has at least one CPA-enabled electrical connector with a locking button; at least one hand-mounted force sensor; an interface board; a transmission channel; a system processor; a non-transitory computer readable memory element; a display; and an input. The hand-mounted force sensors have an electrical output that is proportional to the force. By interposing a force sensor between the locking button and the source of force, the force to close the locking tab can be read. The method is accomplished with the steps of mounting at least one force sensor so that it will record the force exerted when depressing a locking button of a CPA-enabled electrical connector; depressing the locking button; measuring the force; recording the force; comparing the force to a pre-determined threshold; passing the CPA-enabled electrical connector if the force was less than the pre-determined threshold and otherwise failing it.
