DEFINITION

Classification: 340/545.4

Sensing of electrical parameter (e.g., piezoelectricity or capacitance):

(under subclass 545.2) Subject matter in which the movement is sensed according to a detected level of particular electrical power energy.

(1) Note. A piezoelectric or a capacitive sensing element is appropriate for this subclass; the mere making or breaking of an electrical circuit is insufficient for classification herein.
