Lightning Strike Predictor
An early warning system for potential lightning strikes for use in locations such as a sailboat at sea. The sensor may be coupled with protective systems to disconnect electronics and shunt lightning-caused currents to the ground. Additionally, the sensor may also be used to activate warning systems. Background: Safety at sea is on the mind of every...

Groundwater Flux Measurement System
An eighteen-sensor VTP has been developed to measure groundwater fluxes across the ground surface. The thermistor technology employed in this new instrument eliminates the need for copper wires connecting the sensors to the data logger, optimizing ease of fabrication and allowing for very small sensor spacing near the ground surface to enhance the resolution...

Sensor for Aqueous Gases in the Environment (SAGE)
SAGE supports field-portable, in-situ, space-constrained applications and bench-top measurements. The sensor can measure dissolved gases in liquids using only milliliters of the sample, producing a sample analysis time of only minutes, and can reach single ppm-level detection limits. In addition, using a hollow-core fiber optic sensor allows analysis...

Wave Inertial Measurement Sensor (WIMS)
The Wave Inertial Measurement Sensor (WIMS) is a low-cost, low-power consumption device measuring wave motion, height, period, and direction. Composed of an IMU, activator, and digital controller, WIMS can easily be incorporated in or on marine floats - connecting to the float's power source, positioning mechanism, and communications source. Additionally,...
