    Abstract: A harsh environment transducer including a substrate having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the second surface is in communication with the environment. The transducer includes a device layer sensor means located on the substrate for measuring a parameter associated with the environment. The sensor means including a single crystal semiconductor material having a thickness of less than about 0.5 microns. The transducer further includes an output contact located on the substrate and in electrical communication with the sensor means. The transducer includes a package having an internal package space and a port for communication with the environment. The package receives the substrate in the internal package space such that the first surface of the substrate is substantially isolated from the environment and the second surface of the substrate is substantially exposed to the environment through the port. The transducer further includes a connecting component coupled to the package and a wire electrically connecting the connecting component and the output contact such that an output of the sensor means can be communicated. An external surface of the wire is substantially platinum, and an external surface of at least one of the output contact and the connecting component is substantially platinum.

    Abstract: A capacitive strain sensor for sensing strain of a structure. The sensor includes a first section attached to the structure at a first location and a second section attached to the structure at a second location. The first section includes a capacitor plate electrically isolated from the structure and the second section includes two electrically isolated capacitive plates, both of the plates being electrically isolated from the structure. A flexible connector connects the first section to the second section. The capacitor plate of the first section is separated from the two capacitive plates of the second section by at least one capacitive gap. When strain is experienced by the structure, a change occurs in the capacitive gap due to relative motion between the first and second sections.

    Abstract: A strain sensor device for measuring loads on aircraft landing gear. This is done by measuring strains in the lower end of the strut, by which we infer the loading in the entire landing gear structure. These strains can be very large (as high as 10,000 microstrain) and can be imposed in numerous random directions and levels. The present invention includes a removable sensor assembly. An electromechanical means is presented that can accommodate large strains, be firmly attached to the strut, and provide good accuracy and resolution.

    Abstract: A system for monitoring landing gear position. An example rotation position sensor includes a hub mount that locks within a shaft of a joint, a first sensor attached to the hub mount, and a second sensor attached to the rotatably attached part that does not rotate. The hub mount includes a nut that has a partially tapered surface and a threaded cavity. The nut is secured within the shaft. The hub mount also includes a mounting unit that has a partially tapered surface that is in opposition to the partially tapered surface of the nut. A fastener secures the hub mount to the nut. In one example, the first sensor includes a magnetometer and the second sensor includes magnet(s). In another example, the first sensor includes inductor sensor(s) and the second sensor includes device(s) that causes a change in an inductance value of the inductor sensor(s) as the joint rotates.
