To measure the pressure using semiconductor type pressure sensor in water or chemical solution, the sensor must be protected from the solution using proper packaging materials. stainless steel isolated type pressure sensor packaged with SUS316 can be widely used to measure the pressure in water or chemical due to its high corrosion-resistance and good performance in tensility and welding. Even if the surface of SUS316 has a plenty of nickel and chromium, the SUS316 is highly corrosive in acidic or alkaline solution. We coated parylene and adhesion promoting copper layer are 5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 200nm, respectively. The parylene coated stainless steel pressure sensor showed good anti-corosive characteristics in various strong acids. The accuracy of pressure sensor wasn't varied after parylene coating with 0.5%FSO.

맥박을 측정하는 방법 중 하나인 PPG(photoplethysmography) 센서는 설계가 비교적 간편하며 사용이 편한 장점이 있지만, 움직임으로 인한 동잡음에 취약하다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 동잡음으로 인한 센서와 손가락 사이의 밀착되는 압력의 변화를 측정하여 왜곡된 신호를 보상하였다. PPG센서와 손가락 사이의 압력을 측정하기 위하여 FSR(force sensing resistor)센서를 이용하여 측정하였으며, 측정된 압력과 왜곡된 PPG 신호 비교를 통해 왜곡된 PPG신호와 FSR센서에서 얻은 압력 사이의 연관성을 확인하였고, 신호처리를 통하여 왜곡된 신호를 보상 시켰다. 이와 같은 방법으로 PPG신호를 보상하게 된다면 웨어러블한 환경에서의 적용뿐만 아니라 헬스케어로 응용이 가능할 것으로 보인다.

Among many fabrication methods of composite materials, filament winding is the most effective method for fabricating axis-symmetric structures such as pressure tanks and pipes. Filament wound pressure tanks are under high internal pressure during the operation and it has the complexity in damage mechanisms and failure modes. For this reason, it is necessary to monitor the tank through its operation as well as whole fabrication process. A large number of sensors must be embedded into multi points of the tank from its fabrication step for monitoring the whole tank. Fiber optic sensors, especially fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensors are widely used for various applications because of good multiplexing capabilities. However, we need to develop the embedding technique of FBG sensors into harsh inner environment of the tank far the successful embedment. In this paper, we studied the embedding technique of a number of FBG sensors into filament wound pressure tanks considering multiplexing.

In this research, we aimed to investigate the most optimum pulse wave sensor to ear label of live stocks among pulse wave piezo film sensor, conductive textile sensor, photo sensor. As a result of this research with application to 10 cattle, 10 pigs objects with pulse wave piezo film sensor, conductive textile sensor, photo sensor, photo sensor shows less standard deviation to average value than piezo film sensor or conductive textile sensor which means it is the most stable for the cattle. With pigs, piezo film sensor, conductive textile sensor and photo sensor all show stable pulse rate. Thus, to take pulse rate of livestock with curved body and long and dense coat such as cow, photo sensor will be considered as the most efficient mean.

In this research, a capacitive pressure sensor (Piezocapacitive Sensor) was fabricated using carbon black powder containing poly-dimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with micro-grid patterned surface. To investigate the effect of carbon black powder and micro-grid pattern on the sensor's performance, various sensors were fabricated with different carbon black powder concentration and grid pattern density. The performances of the developed sensors were compared in terms of operating range and sensitivity.

This study is concerned with the method of equilibrium-pressure prediction from transient data. Pressure measurement system consisted of pressure sensor and pressure tube. The surface orifice where pressure is measured is connected to a pressure sensor by a tube. In case of high orifice pressure, the pressure sensor responds rapidly to the orifice pressure. But when the orifice pressure is low the pressure sensor does not respond rapidly to the orifice pressure and time lag occurs seriously. Various test conditions are applied to investigate the time lag and to assess the methods of equilibrium-pressure prediction. The test time of the low-pressure measurement can be reduced by the method of equilibrium-pressure prediction of the present study.

Inductive sensors are versatile and economical devices that are widely used to measure a wide variety of physical variables, such as displacement, force, and pressure. In this paper, we propose a simple inductive sensor consisting of a thin partial ring and a coil set. The self-inductance of the sensor was estimated using magnetic circuit analysis and validated through finite element analysis (FEA). The natural frequency of the ring was estimated using Castigliano's theorem and the method of equivalent mass. The estimation was validated through experiments and FEA. A prototype sensor with a signal processing circuit is built and applied to noninvasively sense the pressure inside a flexible tube. The obtained sensor outputs show quadratic behavior with respect to the pressure. When fitted to a quadratic equation, the least-square measurement error was less than 2%. The results confirm the feasibility of pressure sensing using the proposed inductive sensor.

In this paper we present the construction details and output characteristics of a diaphragm-type pressure sensor with Cu-Ni(53:47) thin-film strain gauges. In order to improve the sensitivity and the temperature compensation two circumferential gauges are placed near the center of the diaphragm and two radial gauges are located near the edge. For all the gauges the relative change in resistance ΔR/R with pressure is of the order 10$^{-3}$ for the maximum pressure. The output is found to be linear over the entire pressure range(0-30kfg/cm$^2$)and the output sensitivity obtained is 1.6mV/V. The maximum nonlinearity observed in output characteristics is 0.35%FS for 5V excitation and the hysteresis is less than 0.1%FS.

This paper describes a multiplexed-multivariate fiber-optic interferometric sensor system with remote sensing capability. Signal processor of the implemented sensor system is designed as a digital fringe counter that is well adapted to the signal processing of the remote fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometric sensor array. By summing up the reported optical data of the optical fiber, a guideline for choosing the optical effect suitable for a specific measurand is presented. As an example, a pressure sensing device that utilizes the strain-optic effect of the optical fiber by attaching it onto a stainless steel diaphragm of which diameter is 4.3 cm, is built and attached to the sensor system. The changes in optical phase difference of the fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometric press ure sensor while filling a water tank 2 meters high, was counted by the half-fringe counting signal processor. Test results showed that the measurement error is less than ${\pm}3.6\;cm$ over the measured range of 2 meters.
