==SENSING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MULTIPLE REMOTE SENSORS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18623142 titled 'SENSING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MULTIPLE REMOTE SENSORS

The sensor device described in the patent application consists of at least two sensors located at the end of a shaft, such as a guidewire or catheter. One sensor operates in a first frequency range and voltage range, while the other sensor operates in a different frequency and voltage range.
* The first sensor is shorted based on frequency analysis to prevent it from being exposed to signals associated with the second sensor.
* Both sensors can be driven by the same pair of wires along the shaft, with automatic selection of the suitable sensor.

Potential Applications:
- Medical devices for minimally invasive procedures
- Industrial sensors for precise measurements in tight spaces

Problems Solved:
- Preventing interference between sensors operating at different frequencies and voltage ranges
- Simplifying the wiring setup for sensor devices

Benefits:
- Improved accuracy and reliability of sensor measurements
- Cost-effective design with shared wiring for multiple sensors

Commercial Applications:
Title: "Advanced Sensor Devices for Medical and Industrial Use"
This technology can be utilized in various medical and industrial applications where precise sensor measurements are required. The market implications include increased efficiency and accuracy in data collection and analysis.

Questions about the technology:
1. How does the automatic selection of the suitable sensor work in this device?
   - The device uses frequency analysis to determine which sensor should be active based on the signals detected.
2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in different environments?
   - The main challenge may be ensuring the proper calibration and signal processing for accurate sensor readings.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A sensor device comprises at least two sensors at the end of a shaft (such as a guidewire or catheter). One sensor uses signals in a first frequency range and a first voltage range and the other sensor uses signals in a second frequency range different to the first frequency range and a second voltage range different to the first voltage range. The first sensor is shorted based on frequency analysis, thereby to prevent the first sensor being exposed to signals associated with the second sensor. This enables the two sensors to be driven by the same shared pair of wires along the shaft, with automatic selection of the suitable sensor.
