Abstract
An apparatus for monitoring deposition of a liquid-to-pasty medium on a substrate has a sensor fitted with two electrodes and an electronic circuit connected to the sensor for generating a signal which is characteristic of the substrate and the medium. The electronic circuit measures the imaginary component of the electrical permittivity of the substrate moving, together with the medium, between the two electrodes, and uses the measured value to determine the characteristic signal.
