Claim 18:
19. The method of claim 18, wherein determining that the absolute value of the first error is at least the first multiple of the predetermined threshold further comprises:
determining that the absolute value of the first error is a sum of the first multiple of the predetermined threshold and a second multiple of the predetermined threshold; and
transmitting, by the first load sensor, at least a second set of bits to a computer system over one or more networks, wherein the second set of bits represents the second multiple of the predetermined threshold,
wherein the second set of bits is encoded using the binary code having a first digit, a second digit, a second number of digits and a last digit in series, and
wherein the first digit is a one,
wherein the second digit is a one if the first error is positive and a zero if the first error is negative,
wherein the second multiple equals a base of two to a first exponent,
wherein the second number of digits between the second digit and the last digit is an integer equal to the second exponent, and
wherein the last digit is a one; and

wherein the change in the load applied to the first load sensor is calculated based at least in part on the first set of bits and the second set of bits.
