Sensing Technologies Go Green / Save Green

Much of the action in enhancing "green" performance results from optimizing system performance through intelligent sensing and controls.  As one of the largest sensor manufacturers serving the vehicle and equipment industry, it's natural that we see things through the lens of sensing technologies when it comes to thinking "green".  Going "green" is like the old Rodney Dangerfield story:  "When I was a kid I got no respect.  I was lost on the beach and a cop helped me look for my parents.  I said, "Do you think we'll find them?"  He said, "I don't know kid - there's so many places they could hide."  The same is true of the improvements we can make to boost the "green" value of vehicular systems.

Logic Puzzle - LGDT
Logic Puzzle
for August


In today's high-technology marketplace, the automation of processes is growing, component sizes are shrinking, and the corresponding demands placed on sensors are ever increasing. Included in this trend are proximity and displacement sensors that can operate on almost any material, in diverse and harsh environments, over a variety of ranges, and with ever-increasing resolution. One of the CST brands, BEI Precision Systems & Space Company, Inc. (BEI PSSC), patented an optical proximity sensor, the LGDT, which was designed to meet those very demands.

A CST gift will be awarded to the first 5 individuals who can identify what the letters "LGDT" stand for.
