METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR SEALED COMMUNICATION INTERFACES |
| 摘要 |
Methods and apparatus for sealed communication interfaces are disclosed. One example apparatus includes a translucent portion of a sealing gasket to allow signals to pass therethrough, a sealing wall of the gasket to define a substantially environmentally-isolated zone proximate the translucent portion, and a transmitter to transmit a signal across the translucent portion. The example apparatus also includes a receiver to detect a reflected signal corresponding to the transmitted signal, where the detection enables data communications across the translucent portion, and where the reflected signal is to be reflected from a surface on an opposite side of the translucent portion from the transmitter and receiver. |

1. An apparatus comprising:
a translucent portion of a sealing gasket to allow signals to pass therethrough; a sealing wall of the gasket to define a substantially environmentally-isolated zone proximate the translucent portion; a transmitter to transmit a signal across the translucent portion; and a receiver to detect a reflected signal corresponding to the transmitted signal, wherein the detection enables data communications across the translucent portion, and wherein the reflected signal is to be reflected from a surface on an opposite side of the translucent portion from the transmitter and receiver. |
