A sensor for use with vehicular components. The sensors may comprise transmitting and receiving antennas that can be interleaved or placed within the various materials throughout the vehicle so that interaction with the materials will provide information related to the use. Sensors may also infuse signal into an occupant within the vehicle via the material which can provide enhanced interactions with various vehicle features and components.

Vehicular components comprising sensors

A plurality of sensors for application to a steering wheel or other generally toroidal objects is disclosed. In an embodiment, the sensor comprises interleaving transmit and receive conductors. In an embodiment, the sensor comprises crossing transmit and receive conductors. In an embodiment, sensor conductors are first provided on a flat substrate, which sensors placed on the flat substrate in a configuration that will permit expansion application of the substrate to the steering wheel.

Toroidal sensor

An infusion system including two infusors is operatively connected to a source of infusion signals. In an embodiment, the infusors being adapted for attachment to different parts of the same hand of a user. In an embodiment, the infusors are embedded in a glove or other wearable component. In an embodiment, a choke is used to mitigate infusion signals in other parts of a body. The infusion signal source is configured to transmit differing, orthogonal signals to the two infusors. In an embodiment, each of the differing signals is made up of at least a high frequency signal and a low frequency signal. In an embodiment, the high frequency signal and the low frequency signal are at least one octave apart and orthogonal to each other. In an embodiment, the infusion system includes a steering wheel sensor made from a plurality of conductors attached to a receiver.
