ABSTRACT:
A wetness detection system for detecting dampness in diapers or other articles of clothing includes a detector/transmitter which is attachable to the diaper or clothing. The detector/transmitter produces and transmits a signal when no urine or other conductive matter is present in the diaper or clothing, and this signal is received by and retransmitted from a retransmitting station which may, for example, be located on the bed of the person wearing the diaper or clothing. The retransmitted signal is ultimately received at a central station for alerting an attendant when a wetness condition is detected. Since signals are transmitted when no urine is present, the absence of signals over some predetermined period of time indicates that wetness is present.
