A re-usable electronics device is detachably coupled with a harness physically connected with an article whose wetness condition is to be detected. The harness comprises a set of first conductors, and the re-usable electronics device comprises a set of second conductors on its outer surface such that when the re-usable electronics device is operatively coupled with the harness by insertion in a pouch of the harness, the set of first conductors make electrical contact with the set of second conductors enabling detection of change in voltage across at least one pair of the first conductor above a threshold value. The change in the voltage occurs due to change in resistance of resistance based wetness sensors configured with the harness and operatively coupled to the set of first conductors. Upon detection of the change, the device transmits a notification indicating wetness of the article.
A re-usable electronics device detachably coupled with a harness, said harness having physical connectivity with an article whose wetness condition is to be detected, said harness comprising a set of first conductors, wherein said re-usable electronics device comprises a set of second conductors such that when the re-usable electronics device is operatively coupled with the harness, the set of first conductors make electrical contact with the set of second conductors such that change in voltage across at least one pair of the first conductor above a threshold value transmits a notification indicating wetness of said article.
A harness having physical connectivity with an article whose wetness is to be measured, said harness being configured to hold a re-usable electronics device that is detachably coupled thereto, wherein said harness comprises a set of first conductors, and wherein said re-usable electronics device is operatively coupled with a set of second conductors such that when the re-usable electronics device is operatively coupled with the harness, the set of first conductors make electrical contact with the set of second conductors such that change in voltage across at least one pair of the first conductor of the first set of conductors above a threshold value transmits a notification indicating wetness of said article.
