Abstract
A system for wireless multiple user access to a sensor comprises a sensor unit having a sensor element, a sensor user interface, and a sensor wireless transceiver that transmits information corresponding to the output of the sensor user interface. One or more receiving units each receive the information corresponding to the output of the sensor user interface, and provide that output to a receiver user interface. The receiver may be located near the sensor unit, or may be located remotely from the sensor unit. Multiple receiving units may be used, for example, by students receiving training on the use of a sensor unit.
Claims23
A system for multiple user access to a sensor, comprising:
- a sensor unit comprising a sensor element, a sensor user interface, and a sensor wireless transceiver that transmits information corresponding to the output of the sensor user interface;
- and
- one or more receiving units each comprising a wireless receiver that receives the information corresponding to the output of the sensor user interface, and a receiver user interface connected to the wireless receiver that outputs the information corresponding to the output of the sensor user interface.
A method for multiple user access to a sensing device output, comprising:
- providing a sensing device having a sensor element and a sensor wireless transceiver electrically interconnected to the sensor element;
- transmitting information related to the current state of the sensor element using the sensor wireless transceiver;
- receiving, at one or more receiving units, the information related to the current state of the sensor element from the sensor wireless transceiver;
- and
- at each receiving unit, outputting the information related to the current state of the sensor element to a receiving unit user interface.
An apparatus for wirelessly transmitting sensor information from a sensing device to one or more receiving devices, comprising:
- a sensing device interface adapted to be interconnected to an output of a sensing device;
- a wireless transceiver electrically interconnected to the sensing device interface that receives the output of the sensing device and is adapted to wirelessly transmit the output of the sensing device to one or more receiving devices.
