1. An apparatus comprising:
- a closed body having a varied configuration between a first location and at least a second location; and
a pressure sensor coupled to the closed body at the first location,wherein, when forces with substantially equal magnitudes are respectively applied to the closed body at different locations between the first and second locations, the closed body respectively translates the forces to substantially equal pressure differentials at the first location.

Abstract
An apparatus includes a closed body having a varied configuration between a first location and at least a second location. The apparatus further includes a pressure sensor coupled to the closed body at the first location. When forces with substantially equal magnitudes are respectively applied to the closed body at different locations between the first and second locations, the closed body respectively translates the forces to substantially equal pressure differentials at the first location.

11. A sensor assembly, comprising:
-
a beam component; an exterior component coupled to the beam component; a closed body coupled between the beam component and the exterior component, the closed body having a varied configuration between a first location and at least a second location and complementary to at least one of the frame component and the exterior component; and a pressure sensor coupled to the closed body at the first location, wherein, when forces with substantially equal magnitudes are respectively applied to the exterior component at different locations mechanically coupled between the first and second locations of the closed body, the closed body respectively translates the forces to substantially equal pressure differentials at the first location. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
