The aerological sonde includes a sonde casing having an outer casing surface and a measurement unit arranged inside the sonde casing. The outer casing surface of the sonde casing is arranged to form a sole drag surface of the aerological sonde such that a self-sustaining aerological sonde is formed.

An electrical panel or an electrical meter may provide improved functionality by interacting with a smart plug. A smart plug may provide a smart-plug power monitoring signal that includes information about power consumption of devices connected to the smart plug. The smart-plug power monitoring signal may be used in conjunction with power monitoring signals from the electrical mains of the building for providing information about the operation of devices in the building. For example, the power monitoring signals may be used to (i) determine the main of the house that provides power to the smart plug, (ii) identify devices receiving power from the smart plug, (iii) improve the accuracy of identifying device state changes, and (iv) train mathematical models for identifying devices and device state changes.

Systems and methods for temperature monitoring and environmentally related calculations are disclosed herein. A system according to embodiments herein may include a memory, a network interface, and one or more processors. The system may receive one or more environmental readings from a sensor taking readings at an environmentally controlled area. The system may further determine a timestamp corresponding to each of the one or more readings and calculate, using the one or more readings and their corresponding timestamps, an exposure of a good stored within the temperature controlled area. The system may further determine that the calculated exposure of the good has surpassed a pre-determined exposure threshold for the good and send an electronic message configured to indicate such determination to a user. The system may use a neural network to predict future readings based on current readings and use the predicted future readings in methods described herein.

A remote power usage meter connects to a cable from a generator or similar device that allows remote data gathering for use within a system that provides improved functionality. The power usage meter includes a sensor board, a main unit, and a battery. It provides actionable real-time AC power data. Usage of the AC data is logged using disclosed techniques. Data packets are provided with the data as well other parameters derived from measured AC current and AC voltage.

In one embodiment, a sensor unit includes an outer housing including a top plate and a base member that together define an interior space, the top plate being configured to directly receive and support the leg of the piece of furniture, a load cell provided within the interior space configured to measure forces imposed by the leg on the top plate, the load cell including a planar metal plate having a deformable element to which the top plate is mounted and a sensor element mounted to the planar metal plate at a location at which the deformable element extends from the remainder of the planar metal plate, and an internal platform provided within the interior space and associated with the base member that supports the planar metal plate of the load cell in a manner in which the deformable element of the planar metal plate is free to deform when a force is imposed by the leg on the top plate.

A sensor arrangement is provided for level measurement or point level measurement of a product or pressure measurement in a container, the sensor arrangement including: a sensor configure to transmit and receive a measurement signal and to calculate measurement data; and a display device, which is provided separately from the sensor, configured to be mounted on or in the container, and includes a receiver configured to wirelessly receive the measurement data of the sensor, and a signal indicator configured to display the measurement data of the sensor. A method is also provided for fill level measurement or limit level measurement of a filling material or pressure measurement in a container.

An EPF digital record transmission system may be configured to transmit an EPF digital record from an EPF device to a user device. The user device may then transmit the EPF digital record to a host server for storage and processing. The EPF device may also be configured to transmit health data and the user device may be configured to analyze one or both of the health data and the EPF digital record and present a health recommendation.
