Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A measuring device includes an integrated sensor unit. The integrated sensor unit is configured to record at least one moisture characteristic value of at least one building material. The measuring device further includes a communication unit. The communication unit is configured to receive at least one signal from at least one external sensor unit.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A handheld measuring device, comprising: an integrated sensor unit configured to record at least one moisture characteristic value of at least one building material; and a communication unit configured to receive at least one signal from at least one external sensor unit that is at least partially embedded in the at least one building material, wherein the at least one signal has at least one further moisture characteristic value of the at least one building material sensed by the at least one external sensor unit, and further comprising a computing unit configured to offset the at least one moisture characteristic value with respect to the at least one further moisture characteristic value. 2. The handheld measuring device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the communication unit is configured to wirelessly receive the at least one signal. 3. The handheld measuring device as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the computing unit is further configured to determine at least one compensation characteristic variable from the at least one moisture characteristic value and the at least one further moisture characteristic value. 4. The handheld measuring device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising: at least one interface configured to transmit data to at least one external data processing unit. 5. The handheld measuring device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising: an energy transmitting unit configured to contactlessly supply energy to the at least one external sensor unit. 6. The measuring device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the handheld measuring device is a moisture measuring device. 7. A moisture measuring system, comprising: at least one handheld measuring device having: an integrated sensor unit configured to record at least one moisture characteristic value of at least one building material; a communication unit configured to wirelessly receive at least one signal from at least one external sensor unit, the at least one signal including at least one further moisture characteristic value of the at least one building material; and a computing unit configured to offset the at least one moisture characteristic value against the at least one further moisture characteristic value with respect to each other; and the at least one external sensor unit having: at least one sensor configured to detect the at least one further moisture characteristic value of the at least one building material, wherein the external sensor unit is configured to be at least partially embedded in the at least one building material. 8. The moisture measuring system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one external sensor unit is configured to be at least partially embedded in the at least one building material. 9. The moisture measuring system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one external sensor unit has: a further communication unit configured to emit the at least one signal. 10. The moisture measuring system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one external sensor unit has: an energy receiving unit configured to contactlessly supply energy.
