Abstract
A luminescent pressure sensitive composition for determining an air pressure pattern includes a binder, preferably a polymer binder, with a luminophore, of which the intensity of luminescence depends on air pressure. The luminophore of which the intensity of luminesence depends on air pressure (active luminophore) is mixed together with an additional luminophore of which the intensity of luminescence has a different dependence on air pressure than the active or reference luminophore.

Luminescent pressure sensitive composition for determining an air pressure pattern, comprising a binder, an active luminophore with an intensity of luminescence depending on air pressure, a reference luminophore having an intensity of luminescence with a dependence on air pressure which is different from that of said active luminophore, the reference luminophore having a spectral region of excitation which does not overlap a spectral region of emission of the active luminophore.
A sensor comprising a pulsed or flashed light source, a luminescence detector, an active luminophore applied to a surface and exhibiting a first luminescence when subjected to light emitted by the light source and which is dependent on air pressure, a reference luminophore applied to the surface and exhibiting a second luminescence when subjected to light emitted by the light source, the second luminescence having a dependency on air pressure which is different from that of the first luminescence, the reference luminophore having a spectral region of excitation which does not overlap a spectral region of emission of the active luminophore, the detector being adapted to use a leading or a trailing edge of a pulse signal emitted by the light source to control the time when the luminescence of the active luminophore is detected and the time when the luminescence of the reference luminophore is detected.
