How Sensor Technologies Advance Oil and Gas Robotics and Automation
Interface sensor technologies for oil and gas robotics test mobility, assess mechanical performance, and confirm the structural integrity of inspection tools. Robotics and automation in the oil and gas sector use load cells, torque transducers, and multi-axis sensors for infrastructure, production, maintenance, security, monitoring, and safety.

Controlling Crosstalk in Multi-Axis Force Measurement Systems
Interface details the mechanical considerations and best practices for managing crosstalk. Using multi-axis sensors, crosstalk occurs when a load applied strictly to one axis produces a parasitic signal in another. For Interface instrumentation and sensor systems, managing this requires minimizing mechanical coupling at the flexure and applying mathematical compensation through precision electronics.

High-Fidelity 101
Interface 101 series details high-fidelity (Hi-Fi), a term referencing how accurately a measurement system reproduces the characteristics of a physical input. Load cell users may require a high-fidelity system where the digital output precisely reflects the mechanical force applied to the sensor. This integrity must be maintained throughout the entire signal chain, from the physical deformation of the strain gage to the final data output. Hi-Fi is very important in aerospace, additive manufacturing, and product efficiency such as lightweighting.
