Abstract :
A new fast semiconductor dew point hygrometer for laryngological applications is presented in the report. The hygrometer construction based on integration into the single semiconductor sensor structure the impedance dew detector, the thermoresistor and the heater is described in the paper. The experimental results of the dew point hygrometer tests in laryngological measurements (during patient respiration cycle) are shown and discussed.
