SYSTEM AND METHOD TO COMBINE AND WEIGHT MULTIPLE SENSORS WITH OVERLAPPING SENSING RANGE TO CREATE A MEASUREMENT SYSTEM UTILIZED IN A HIGH INTEGRITY OR SAFETY ENVIRONMENT

摘要

The claimed subject matter provides industrial automation systems and/or methods that can aggregate data. A plurality of sensors can provide redundant detected data. Additionally, a weighting component can respectively weight the detected data based upon a confidence of accurate measurement corresponding to each of the plurality of sensors. Further, a combination component can assemble the redundant detected data based at least in part upon the weights to generate harmonized data.
