A metering console (100) includes a housing (110) adapted to allow flow of a liquid (F) therethrough. The housing (110) is adapted to attach with one or more gardening devices (132, 152). The metering console (100) includes a display (170) associated with the housing (110). The metering console (100) is characterized in that the display (170) is rotatably engaged with the housing (110) of the metering console (100) such that the display (170) rotates along a central axis (A-A′) of the housing (110).

Provided a data management system which includes a data acquisition unit that acquires measurement data obtained by measuring a fluid flowing in a flow path from each of a plurality of sensors, a data recording unit that records the acquired measurement data, and a data volume reduction unit that reduces a data volume to be recorded for a target sensor based on the measurement data acquired from another sensor installed in either an upstream or a downstream from itself in the flow path among the plurality of sensors.

A system and method for detecting and analyzing fluid flow. The system includes a turbine that rotates in response to a fluid flow; a sensor that senses positional information of the turbine; a flow detector coupled to the sensor that: periodically captures and stores a value indicative of a position of the turbine; compares the value with a previously collected value; and detects flow if the value and previously collected value differ; and a flow analysis system coupled to the sensor that activates in response to a detected flow, wherein the flow analysis system collects and analyzes sensor data from the sensor.

It is an object to provide a flow rate sensor device having improved sensor responsiveness compared with the prior art. The present invention is a flow rate sensor device including a sensor element that detects a flow rate, wherein a sensor unit on which the sensor element is mounted and a drive substrate including a drive control circuit are connected through a connection portion narrower than a width of the drive substrate. Thus, a heat source in the drive substrate and a heat source in the sensor unit can be separated by the connection portion that is thin in width, and the thermal influence from the drive substrate to the sensor unit can be suppressed. Therefore, good sensor responsiveness can be maintained.

Devices, systems, and methods are provided for monitoring water or other fluid consumption. For example, a fluid intake measurement device may provide highly accurate fluid consumption, which can be directly attached to a variety of fluid containers. The systems and methods herein also relate to the application of game psychology and mechanics to predict potential health issues and drive behavioral change for a healthier lifestyle and/or support motivational techniques for better healthcare conduct.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to collecting, by a computer system, sensor data of a manufacturing system, the sensor data being measured at intervals smaller than a time interval of a target measurement of the manufacturing system. The sensor data is determined to have a relationship to the target measurement. A synthetic target measurement is generated at an interval smaller than the time interval based on the relationship. An advance warning is automatically generated for the target measurement based on the synthetic target measurement within the interval smaller than the time interval.

An aggregation method includes: acquiring log information including a measurement value of a force used by a processing apparatus and a measurement date and time, the measurement value being measured by a sensor of the processing apparatus that processes a substrate; storing the measurement value of the force and the measurement date and time included in the acquired log information in a storage unit; and integrating the measurement value of the force associated with the measurement date and time in a specified aggregation period with reference to the storage unit to calculate an integrated value of the force for each processing apparatus.

An automated method for evaluating completeness of clinical data being transferred from a clinical device. The clinical data includes continuously logged data, intermittently logged data, and timestamp data associated with each of the continuously logged data and intermittently logged data. The method is executed by a processor and includes receiving the clinical data from the clinical device and based on the timestamp data associated with the continuously logged data, determining a time span over which the continuously logged data was obtained. The timestamp data associated with the intermittently logged data is compared with the determined time span. If any timestamp data associated with the intermittently logged data does not occur within the determined time span, an alert is issued indicating that the continuously logged data of the clinical data is incomplete.

A cartridge hydraulic flow sensor includes an exterior, interior, head, base, a circuit board, and first and second ports. The first and second ports permit fluid to flow into and out of the interior. A Hall Effect Sensor in the interior detects the number of revolutions of an impeller. An electric coupler interfaces with the sensor and a transmitter for communication of the revolutions of the impeller to a controller. The controller determines the rate of fluid flow in a conduit. The controller automatically issues a command signal to a component of a hydraulic system to alter the rate of fluid flow in the conduit. The cartridge hydraulic flow sensor is easily and releasably engaged to a cavity of a hydraulic circuit manifold.

A method and device for indicating whether a dispensable product will require refilling prior to the next scheduled service interval includes tracking the amount of use over a first interval, and calculating a frequency based from the use over the first interval. The quantity remaining is compared with the required amount, which is the product of the number of weeks in the service interval and the calculated frequency. Thus, when the quantity remaining is less that the required amount, a warning will be provided to indicate that the dispensing product should be replaced, as it will be empty before the next service interval.
