Abstract

SISTEMA E MéTODO DE LEITURA DE NìVEL CONTìNUA E NãO INVASIVA. Modalidades da presente invenção proporcionam um sistema e método para detectar o nível de um fluido em um cartucho cirúrgico ao projetar luz a partir de uma estrutura sensora linear para dentro da parede do cartucho. Dependendo da quantidade de luz refletida ou refratada no cartucho (isto é, em virtude do material de cartucho/interface líquida ou material de cartucho/interface de ar (ou outra interface)), diversas porções de uma estrutura sensora será mais ou menos iluminada. Ao se examinar a iluminação de uma estrutura sensora linear, o nível de fluido na câmara pode ser determinado.
