发明名称 APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC GAUGE READING IN AN INVENTORY CONTROL AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
摘要 A system includes a probe configured to be raised and lowered in a tank capable of receiving a material. The system also includes a connector coupled to the probe and having at least one type of coding encoded on the connector. The system further includes a main unit configured to raise and lower the probe using the connector, digitally capture information associated with the at least one type of coding on the connector, determine a level reading identifying a level of the material in the tank using the captured information, and wirelessly transmit the identified level reading. The main unit could also be configured to determine a confidence level or interval associated with the identified level reading and wirelessly transmit the confidence level or interval. The connector could include a tape, and the at least one type of coding could include visible markings, perforations, and/or magnetic codes.
