Grass Bag Fill Sensor for Robotic Mowers

A lawn mower is one of the most effective equipment for keeping grassy lawns trimmed and beautiful. Some mowers come with an alert to let the operator know when the grass bag is full, thus preventing a trail of mulch on the lawn that would require manual raking. While using a traditional mower without a […]

Cost Effective Flow Sensing Solution for Positive Airway Pressure Devices

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common breathing disorder that occurs while individuals are . While we’re sleeping, our airwards are typically more relaxed. Sleep apnea can cause narrowing and collapsing of the airways during this relaxed state interrupting normal breathing. There are many people living with OSA – about 5-10% of people worldwide. Many […]

Advantages of Pressure Sensors for CPAP Equipment

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a serious condition where one’s airway is repeatedly blocked while asleep. It is estimated that about 22 million Americans* suffer from this disorder. To treat OSA, a physician may prescribe a Continuous Positive Air Pressure (CPAP) device. This device helps maintain a positive air pressure in order to prevent the […]
