| 发明名称 | Occupancy sensor | ||
| 摘要 | Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices, and systems for determining occupancy of a user. One method to determine occupancy of a user includes sensing a change in resistance of a sensor element of an occupancy sensor, correlating the change in resistance to a force transmitted to the occupancy sensor, and determining an occupancy status of a user based on the force transmitted. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A method for determining occupancy of a user, comprising: transmitting a force to an occupancy sensor via an activator bar, wherein the activator bar is fixed at a first end and a second end and is coupled to a sensor element of the occupancy sensor between a first end and a second end of the sensor element, and an edge support surrounds the activator bar and wherein the occupancy sensor is between a base and the activator bar; sensing a change in resistance of a sensor element of the occupancy sensor; correlating the change in resistance to a force transmitted to the occupancy sensor; and determining an occupancy status of a user based on the force transmitted. | ||
