An arrangement for determining the moisture of an object, in particular the moisture of human skin, has an electrically insulating carrier layer onto which the following units are applied: at least two electrodes, in particular interdigital electrodes, which are arranged on a first face of the carrier layer; a digital capacitance measuring device, to which the electrodes are connected; an NFC transponder which comprises an antenna and to which the measurement results of the capacitance measuring device are supplied in order to be forwarded wirelessly via the antenna, wherein the NFC transponder and the capacitance measuring device are arranged in the same chip in particular; and a shielding, which lies on the carrier layer face opposite the first face and which is connected to system ground of the capacitance measuring device in particular.

Arrangement for determining the moisture of an object

A measuring device for detecting and evaluating an impact, jolt or the like is formed with an impact face, against which the impact, jolt or pulse which is to be evaluated strikes. A sensor, for example a force sensor, detects values of the force which act on the impact face as a result. A sensor, for example an acceleration sensor, detects values of the acceleration which act on the impact face as a result. An evaluation unit processes the determined force and acceleration values.
