An apparatus for monitoring rod rotation in a rod lift system. The apparatus comprises one or more sensors that reside on the rod string of the rod lift system. The sensor is configured via a processor to generate a signal indicative of radial position of the sensor relative to an external frame of reference. The signal may be sent to a wireless I/O module, with the signals being indicative of at least partial rotation or, alternatively, a lack of rotation, of the rod-string. The processor is configured to generate an alarm if an absence of rod rotation is detected while the rod lift system is running and transmit this signal to the nearby wireless I/O module. A method for monitoring a reciprocating rod lift system is also provided.

Devices and systems for implementing a walk-through gate are provided. The devices include a walk-through gate structure having boundaries that have curved inner surfaces on each side of a cavity. The curved inner surfaces are partially covered by a reflective material. The devices include radio frequency (RF) signal transmitters positioned tangent to the curved inner surfaces and RF signal receivers. The devices also include apertures that provide access to the cavity of the walk-through gate structure.

The invention relates to a system for detecting forbidden objects worn or carried by individuals, comprising a metal detector comprising at least three transducers (141, 142, 143) arranged on either side of a passage (102), two of these transducers (142, 143) being positioned on the one same side of the passage (102) and spaced apart longitudinally in the direction of travel through the passage (102), while the third transducer (141) is positioned on the opposite side of the passage (102) so that the three transducers (141, 142, 143) are available in combination to perform spatial discrimination of the location of the metallic objects (M1, M2, M3) detected.

The present disclosure discloses a distributed airborne electromagnetic detection system, and relates to an airborne electromagnetic detection technology. The distributed airborne electromagnetic detection system comprises at least one transmitting system, at least one receiving system, at least one trunk module, and an earth station, and also a plurality of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for carrying the transmitting system, the receiving system, and the trunk module. The distributed airborne electromagnetic detection system does not require high performance or high economical efficiency for a single UAV; under precise synchronous flight conditions, the distance between a type I UAV and a transmitting loop structure can be greatly reduced, thereby significantly reducing the length of unwanted transmitting cable; and in addition, due to the better low-altitude low-speed performance of UAVs, the traveling speed of the entire system can be further reduced, thus obtaining higher quality data.
