| RFP: Robust Wireless Sensor Systems for Extreme Conditions |
| by David Zhou |
Background
The Siemens Corporation, invites proposals pressure and temperature sensors including wireless data transmission that withstand extreme conditions.
The successful technology will:
Provide Continuous Measurement and wireless transmission of temperature and pressure data:
- Data signal must pass through a 50-300mm steel case
- Report and survive continuous operating gas temperatures from -50 to 250 °C
- Report and survive gas pressures from 0-400 Bar
- Resist highly corrosive environments (e.g. CO, CO2, Mercury at these temperatures)
- Sensor must have 6 year minimum maintenance free operating life
- Be no larger than 4 cm in either length or width for the internal component
- pressure and temperature
Opportunity
Licensing, joint-development, contract research, supplier agreement
Timeline
Phase 1 : Due Diligence evaluation complete by July 2009
Phase 2 : Prototype Testing to Begin no later than September 2009
Financial
Contract research or joint development funding available up to 100,000 Euro depending on technology and project scope. Other
funding possible as appropriate to the agreed on project scope.
Possible Approaches
Approaches of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Energy harvesting power supplies
- Ultrasonically driven energy transducers
- Vapor phase fuel cell or combustion technology using ambient gases
- Novel robust sensing technique
- Ultrasonic data transmission and reception
- Energy storage methods to work with energy harvesting
