Advanced Sensor Technology.

Abstract

The report discusses work on the design, development, and applications of several new sensors which include a mercury level tiltmeter, a soil stress indicator, a flexural rigidity sensor, a 3-axis angular motion sensor, and an angular differentiating accelerometer. These sensors have the potential of providing an important technology in the areas of guidance and control, security systems, construction and mining safety, non-destructive testing, blast and shock detection, and precision monitoring of environmental conditions.
