Systems and methods for monitoring pressure at a contact surface, for applications such as pressure sore prevention. The system includes a number of force sensors positioned at different locations in relation to the contact surface, the force sensors providing a signal in proportion to the amount of force detected. The system includes a controller for receiving the signals from the force sensors and determining values associated with each force sensor. The controller is configured for comparing a first one or more values associated with a first subset of force sensors with a second one or more values associated with a second subset of force sensors, determining from the comparing whether a threshold between said first one or more values and said second one or more values has been exceeded, and controlling, based on the determining, an indicator to provide an indication to the user.

Monitoring system for pressure sore prevention

A grinding machine to remove markings such as painted lines from a paved surface includes a wheeled carriage to be moved over the paved surface. A grinder is positioned beneath the carriage to contact and grind the paved surface. A suspension acts between the carriage and the grinder to allow the grinder to follow the profile of the paved surface as the grinding machine is moved thereover. A drive is supported by the carriage to actuate the grinder.
