Multi-sensor based performance improvement of weighing modules

Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Allemand)

The goal of this project is to improve the performance of the weighing module during external disturbances by using information from additional sensors. While there are many possible external disturbances, this project is focused on the most important factors in the field, which are disturbances caused by mechanical effects on the balance, i.e., effects that result in a change in acceleration/velocity/position and/or inclination of the weighing module. In this project, the correlating disturbances are identified, potential sensors with appropriate sensitivity and suitable economical range are selected and a prototype of an overall system is build, where the additional sensors are used to measure theses disturbances and these measurements are used to improve the performance of the weighing module.
