We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Pressure Measurement",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Analysis verifies even pressure from
Tekscan, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Digital Analysis System for Prescale consists of pressure analysis software, a scanner, a dedicated scanner cover to improve data-read precision and a calibration sheet".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Possibly the best pressure sensor ever made from
Presens: "Pressure sensor based on advanced digital MEMS technology is ideal for applications that require high accuracy, low drift and high resolution".
In December 2007, we covered the news from Impress Sensors and Systems
concerning its ASL Series pressure transducer
- take a look at Pressure sensors are made for motorsports
which says: "Typical on-vehicle applications include fuel pressure, brakes, oil, water, air and coolant pressure, with custom-designed sensors available for specific applications".
Take a look also at the news release from American Sensor Technologies, Pressure transmitter attains compliance,
as well as Pressure sensors monitor environmental conditions from Sensortechnics UK,
and Micro-switches improve vehicle safety from Custom Sensors and Technologies (CST).
