ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 11 -- United States Patent no. 12,546,737, issued on Feb. 10, was assigned to Gottlieb Binder GmbH & Co. KG (Holzgerlingen, Germany).
"Moisture sensor using electrical conductivity measurement" was invented by Konstantinos Poulakis (Hildrizhausen, Germany).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A sensor device is for determining moisture using an electrical conductivity measurement. A non-conducting support has individual electrical conductors.
