Title: Innovations by Steven G Hemmer in Optical Event Detection
Introduction
Steven G Hemmer is an accomplished inventor based in Lake Worth, FL (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of electrical engineering, particularly in the area of distribution transformer monitoring. His innovative approach focuses on enhancing the safety and efficiency of electrical distribution systems.
Latest Patents
Hemmer holds a patent for an "Apparatus, system, and method for detecting optical events associated with distribution transformers." This invention includes a distribution transformer and a monitoring device known as the Distribution Transformer Monitoring device (DTM). The DTM is equipped with an optical sensor that generates an output signal in response to incident light. It features a communication interface, non-transitory memory for storing processor-executable instructions, and a processor that is operably coupled to the optical sensor, communication interface, and memory. The processor can determine whether the output signal corresponds to various stored data signatures representing light-producing events, such as arcing, fire, or unexpected ambient light. When such criteria are met, the system communicates an alert to a remote computing device via the communication interface. The distribution transformer can be pad-mountable, aerially mountable, or cabinet mountable, depending on the application.
