Abstract:
A sensor and display system comprising:a sensor unit, receptive to a command signal, that includes a transducer and a transmitter, where the transducer is coupled to a vessel and senses a parameter of the vessel, and where the transmitter is operatively coupled to the transducer and generates a response signal indicative of the parameter in response to the sensor receiving the command signal; and a display unit in remote communication with the sensor unit and having a transmitter that transmits the command signal to the sensor; an antenna for remotely receiving from the sensor unit the response signal indicative of the parameter; a processor, operatively coupled to the transmitter and the antenna, that extracts from the response signal an indication of the parameter, and a display, operatively coupled to the processor, for displaying information relating to the parameter.
