Omron Demonstrates NEW Piezo Resistive Pressure Sensor technology at Sensors Expo 2012

Sensor Product Manager and Assistant Medical Market Manager, Ms. Donna Sandfox, demonstrates and speaks about the SOON TO BE RELEASED 2SMPP-02 sensor. Expanding on their Piezo Resistive Pressure Sensor technology, a MEMS Absolute Pressure Sensor is nearing completion. Able to detect changes in elevation at a resolution less than 1 vertical meter, it could be used, for instance, to determine what floor of an office building a person is on. With an operating pressure of 50 to 110 kPa, target applications for this product include enhancement of GPS Navigation, Portable Navigation Devices, Weather Forecasting Equipment, and Vertical Velocity Indication.
