MicroGyro Angular Rate Sensor  
 
Designed for high volume, low cost, and high performance automotive applications, Systron Donner's MicroGyro Angular Rate Sensors feature inertial performance with a bias error of less than 1 degree per second over temperature and lifetime with a sensitivity error of less than 2%. The MicroGyro is capable of withstanding high temperatures (+125 degrees C) and has high-vibration condition capability. It is ideal for Electronic Stability Control (ESC), but also for lane-keeping, rollover prevention, obstacle detection, event monitoring and other applications.

Millenium 3
Logic Controller with Pressure Sensor
 
The Millenium 3 Pressure - is configured with a pressure sensor and provides solutions to:
 
Pressure:  Monitor the state of air filters (clogging), display differential pressure, measure hydraulic pressure on agricultural equipment. 
 
Level:  Measure levels in tanks, control the density in processing tanks, remote maintenance of fluid levels in pumping stations and more.
 
Flow:  Calculate the volume used on a watering system, display a flow rate, measure flow in a conduit.
 
Three Main Functions:  Measure, Display, Monitor - The Millenium 3 pressure solution not only enables you to measure, display, monitor, but also perform calculations using the power of the Millenium 3 Logic Controller.
 
And you can also communicate the data from your applications via the modem and Millenium 3 network extension solutions. An all-in-one configuration is achieved with 3 components: Logic Controller, Pressure Sensor & dedicated Software functions. The Millenium 3 Logic Controller is available in 24 Vdc, compact or expandable versions. The pressure sensors are compatible with most neutral fluids and gasses with a measurement range from 0 to 100 bars and are available for sensing either Absolute or Relative (Gauge) pressures. The dedicated function blocks (Pressure gain, Flow, Level, High Level Switch) are included in the specific function library to ensure product compatibility and gives access to the Millenium 3's easy programming.

Aero Pressure Sensor
Aerospace Pressure Sensors Really Measure Up! 
 
Looking to monitor the pressure drop across an engine air filter of a helicopter?
 
Then Kavlico has the sensor for you! 
 
Kavlico's 1 PSID Differential Pressure sensor indicates when the filter needs to be replaced by providing a linear amplified voltage output of 0.5 to 4.5 Vdc proportional to pressure.  In fact, Kavlico manufactures a selection of pressure and combined pressure and temperature sensors for such aerospace applications as: Turbine Inlet Pressure, Hydraulic System Health Monitoring, and High-pressure Hydraulic Actuator Measurements. The high accuracy, high repeatability sensors are available in pressure from 1" H20 to 10,000 PSI

Can you solve this???
 
Let's just say... that two Airbus A380s, utilizing CST sensors, take off at the same exact moment. They are each flying across the Atlantic Ocean. One leaves New York and is flying to Paris at 500 miles per hour. The other leaves Paris and is flying to New York at only 450 miles per hour (because of a strong head wind). Which one will be closer to Paris when they meet?
