摘要： An inductive displacement sensor having a magnetically permeable measuring head arranged displaceably and/or rotatably on an elongated support, having at least one measuring loop with a geometric shape changing in response to longitudinal/rotational displacement of the measuring head along the support, and having at least one exciter loop by means of which a magnetic flux can be generated in the measuring head. At least two measuring loops being provided, the first measuring loop formed geometrically in such a way that a response, changing as linearly as possible, to a magnetic excitation of the measuring head emerges with a longitudinal/rotational displacement of the measuring head along the support and the least second measuring loop formed geometrically in such a way that a periodically changing response to a magnetic excitation of the measuring head emerges with a longitudinal/rotational displacement of the measuring head.

摘要： A device for generating an image of an object by electromagnetic waves has a transmission device which is set up to radiate electromagnetic waves in the direction of the object, a receiving device which is set up to receive electromagnetic waves from the object, and a digital processing and control unit which is set up to generate image data of the object from the measured data. Here, the transmission device and the receiving device are arranged in at least one modular unit. The digital processing and control unit has an interface via which different modular units can be exchangeably coupled to the digital processing and control unit. Here, the interface is set up to transmit data to the modular unit and to receive from this, to transmit control signals to the transmission device and to the receiving device, and to supply the modular unit with energy.

摘要： In a method for operating a system, which has a plurality of sensors (21, 22, 23), the sensors (21, 22, 23) provide first sensor data (11) to a primary process (31). Furthermore, the sensors (21, 22, 23) provide second sensor data (12). At least a part of the first sensor data (11) and the second sensor data (12) is subjected to an analysis (13). A result (16) of the analysis (13) is used in at least one secondary process (33) of the primary process (31).

摘要： A method for detecting an edge of an object is carried out by means of a detection device (10), which has a transmission region running along a first straight line and has a receiving region which runs along a second straight line, which is arranged in parallel to the first straight line. A transmission subregion (11a-p) of the transmission region is selected, which extends up to a first end of the transmission region. Light is transmitted from the transmission subregion (11a-p) and a light signal of light reflected on the object is received in the receiving region. The transmission subregion (11a-p) is then shifted along the first straight line in the direction of a second end of the transmission region. Transmitting, receiving and shifting are repeated until the transmission subregion (11a-p) extends up to the second end at the start of the shifting step. A signal course is compiled from the received light signals, and the detection of the edge from the signal course is carried out.
