Abstract: A force detection system includes first and second sets of pressure sensors, memory, and a processing module. The first set of pressure sensors are in an insole of a shoe and the second set of pressure sensors are in an outsole of a shoe. The processing module receives first data regarding the first set of pressure sensors and generates a first digital representation of the first data. The processing module also receives second data regarding the second set of pressure sensors and generates a second digital representation of the second data. The processing module also writes the first and second digital representations to the memory.

Abstract: A sensor system includes a substrate with a reference plane, a plurality of kinesthetic-sense sensors disposed on the substrate, each of the plurality of kinesthetic-sense sensors being configured to output signals of three axial directions corresponding to an orthogonal-axis direction orthogonal to the reference plane and two axial directions parallel to the reference plane, respectively, according to an external force from an object received at a force receiving part, a control unit configured to determine whether or not a value of each of the signals is larger than a predetermined threshold, and calculate a pressing force in the orthogonal-axis direction or a moment around the orthogonal axis received from the object based on a result of the determination, and an output unit configured to output a result of the calculation.

Abstract: An elastic body is fixed to a main body and a movable body and is deformable according to the movement of the movable body. A strain sensor is provided on the elastic body and includes a strain body. The movable body includes an opening. The stopper member includes a first contact portion and a second contact portion provided inside the opening, whose distances from the opening are different from each other. The first contact portion is located in a direction in which the movable range of the strain body is great, and the second contact portion is located in a direction in which the movable range of the strain body is small.

Abstract: Measuring device / sensor system for measuring, transferring and processing of relevant performance data from training and competition in contact sports, in particular the physical contact and its force effect
In practice and as far as possible, performance data in contact sports, in particular those of factual contact and force effect of relevant objects and persons to each other, are not surveyed separately but evaluated subjectively. In contact sports like martial arts this is especially critical, because an occurred contact and its force effect are the significant success data in these sports. In other types of contact sports, e.g. ball sports one is concentrated on the performance data, that lead to goal achievement (e.g. goal scoring) and is not looking objectively into the performance of participants for, for example, draw conclusions about the correct technique execution at any time in a game or competition. Though there are already measuring devices for some contact sports for detecting force effect and contact, these are limited to several defined single sensors and applications. Therefore it may be possible to make objective measurement but in case of doubt, a subjective evaluation of technique and point assignment is still necessary. This invention contains a system of measuring devices, that can, especially in martial arts sports, improve the point assignment and in other contact sports the evaluation of techniques. These special measuring devices for contact measuring and its movement and acceleration sensors, display systems and hardware interfaces can be combined with software interfaces and be tailored to fit different applications. In case of martial arts sports, the configuration of protective equipment with these measuring devices is one use case, in which the measuring devices detect all relevant data like contact, force effect and movement direction, that can be used for competition decisions.-

Abstract: An example embodiment may include a sensor for monitoring and/or measuring stress in a semiconductor component. The component may include a substrate formed of a semiconductor material. The substrate may include a planar main surface. The sensor may include at least one slanted surface of the substrate material, the slanted surface being defined by an oblique inclination angle with respect to the main surface of the substrate. The sensor may also include at least one straight resistive path extending on at least part of the slanted surface and a plurality of contacts and terminals for accessing the at least one resistive path. The contacts and terminals may allow for the measurement of an electrical resistance of the resistive path and an assessment of a shear stress in a plane that is not parallel to the main surface of the substrate.
