An occupancy sensing device for determining occupancy of a zone of a building includes a first vibration sensor, a second vibration sensor, and a processing circuit. The first vibration sensor is configured to sense vibrations associated with movement of an occupant and generate a first signal based on the sensed vibrations. The second vibration sensor is configured to sense the vibrations associated with the movement of the occupant and generate a second signal based on the sensed vibrations. The processing circuit is configured to receive the first signal from the first vibration sensor, receive the second signal from the second vibration sensor, and determine whether the occupant is entering or exiting the zone based on the first and second signals.

Systems and methods for providing an indication of an output current of a voltage regulator applied to a load at an indicated time to a processor.

An interface for transferring data between a non-rotating body and a rotating body of a sensor assembly using a bidirectional communication link. For instance, the interface may include a first data transmitter coupled to the rotating body and configured to transmit first data signals representing sensor signals generated by the sensor assembly. A first data receiver is coupled to the non-rotating body and configured to receive the first data signals via a first wireless coupling. The interface further includes a second data transmitter coupled to the non-rotating body and configured to transmit second data signals. A second data receiver is coupled to the rotating body and configured to receive the second data signals via a second wireless coupling. In some instances, the first data signals may be transmitted using a first wavelength and the second data signals may be transmitted using a second, different wavelength.

An apparatus and method for remotely monitoring water usage in real time utilizes a sensor attached to a water meter. The sensor monitors water flowing through the meter by analyzing the water meter's magnetic coupling and processes the data to correlate it to real time flow rates. Data is transmitted through a base unit to remote storage and consumers may access the data with application software installed on electronics such as smartphones and tablets. Four components are combined to allow the real time monitoring of water utilization.
