Abstract
A system for performing sensor maintenance, including redundant sensors to collect one or more data points; one or more non-transitory storage mediums; a processor; and an output device; wherein one of the non-transitory storage mediums receives the one or more data points; wherein one of the non-transitory storage mediums includes one or more instructions for performing two or more statistical calculations; and wherein the processor carries out the instructions. The method for using the system includes: the non-transitory storage medium receiving one or more data points from the redundant sensors; the processor performing the statistical calculations on the data points to generate one or more processed data points and comparing the processed data points to a threshold value; and the non-transitory storage medium creating an alert when the processed data points exceed a threshold value for a period of time; and displaying the alert on the output device.
