Abstract
A non-resistive contact sensor assembly, includes a non-resistive contact sensor device, a first inner region of material in which the sensor device is surrounded or embedded, a boundary region, around the first inner region, that is at least partly comprised of a conducting material and that picks up electrical charge from the first inner region, a second inner region around the boundary region, an outer region around the second inner region, and at least one diode, disposed in the second inner region and connected between the boundary region through the second inner region to the outer region.
