Abstract

A process which wirelessly detects spark activity and by using software and a microcontroller to process the data share the information with other devices or information networks

Claims

1. An improved method of wirelessly detecting and conveying the presence of spark energy simply, and efficiently comprising

a) the use of any suitable microcontroller possessing sufficient performance requirements to process the said spark energy data

b) the ability to easily interface the resulting information with other devices or information networks using wireless or non-wireless means

Wherein the improvement comprises the use of software code to process the signal, perform intelligent self diagnostic tests to ensure reliability of operation and whereby the resulting processed information directly and efficiently signifies the presence of spark;

and that same information may be easily interfaced to any other device or information network through wired or wireless transmission means.

2. A new use for the antenna or probe comprising

a) an embedded super bright light emitting diode (LED) with a quick release safety detachable connector.
