Barrier pressure detection system

摘要

A pressure detection system is provided. The pressure detection system may include an enclosure that houses a pressure sensor, a type selector and a thickness selector. The pressure sensor may be adapted to produce output representative of the pressure on a barrier. The pressure sensor may include a computer electronically connected to the type selector and the thickness selector. The computer may be adapted to determine a threshold pressure that is related to the minimum amount of pressure needed to break a barrier for a given barrier type and a given barrier thickness. The pressure sensor may be adapted to transmit an alarm signal when the output of the pressure sensor may exceed the threshold pressure. A user may install the enclosure on the barrier. The user may then select the given barrier type from a group of predetermined options on the type selector. The user may then select the given barrier thickness from a group of predetermined options on the thickness selector.

主权项

1. A system for detecting a barrier breach, comprising:
a pressure sensor configured to produce output representative of the pressure on a barrier; and a computer electronically connected to the pressure sensor, wherein the computer comprises machine-readable program code to perform the following process steps:
receiving a given barrier type from a user;receiving a given barrier thickness from the user;determining a threshold pressure based on the given barrier type and the given barrier thickness; andsending an alarm signal when the output of the pressure sensor exceeds the threshold pressure.
