  2. MAP sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAP_sensor

    The manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP sensor) is one of the sensors used in an internal combustion engine's electronic control system. Engines that use a MAP sensor are typically fuel injected. The manifold absolute pressure sensor provides instantaneous manifold pressure information to the engine's electronic control unit (ECU).

  3. Dust reduction system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_reduction_system

    The distance between the filter glass and the sensor also mitigates the problem of dust, since any dust that does adhere to the glass will be held further away from the sensor, and thus produce a larger, more diffuse, and less noticeable shadow. In practice, few Four Thirds system users report having any issues with sensor dust.

  4. WD-40 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WD-40

    WD-40's formula is a trade secret. [17] The original copy of the formula was moved to a secure bank vault in San Diego in 2018. [18] To avoid disclosing its composition, the product was not patented in 1953, and the window of opportunity for patenting it has long since closed.

    Former WD-40 headquarters in San Diego. The WD-40 Company, originally the Rocket Chemical Company, is an American manufacturer of household and multi-use products, including its signature brand, WD-40, as well as 3-In-One Oil, Lava, Spot Shot, X-14, Carpet Fresh, GT85, 1001, Solvol, 2000 Flushes and No Vac. [2] It is based in San Diego, California.

    He was born in Chicago. [2]Larsen is sometimes credited with inventing the WD-40 formula in 1953 but this is not certain. The WD-40 company website and other books and newspapers credit him [3] [4] [5] but according to Iris Engstrand, a historian of San Diego and California at the University of San Diego, it was actually Iver Norman Lawson (also an engineer born in Chicago at around the same ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:WD-40

    The residue left by WD-40 on the keys would be far worse than the "human grease" it is purported to remove. As mentioned earlier in the article, the smell of WD-40 lingers, and contact with the skin is to be avoided. WD-40 should under no circumstances be used to clean a screen.

  8. Level sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_sensor

    The sensor contains no moving parts, is rugged, simple to use, and easy to clean, and can be designed for high temperature and pressure applications. A danger exists from build-up and discharge of a high-voltage static charge that results from the rubbing and movement of low dielectric materials, but this danger can be eliminated with proper ...

  9. Wireless sensor network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_sensor_network

    Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) refer to networks of spatially dispersed and dedicated sensors that monitor and record the physical conditions of the environment and forward the collected data to a central location. WSNs can measure environmental conditions such as temperature, sound, pollution levels, humidity and wind.
