Abstract:
A tampering detection system for a dispensing nozzle of a dispensing system in which the dispensing nozzle is inserted into a connecting piece of the dispensing system comprises a flat, tactile sensor comprising at least two pressure sensitive and individually evaluable sensor segments. The sensor is arranged between the connecting piece and the dispensing nozzle and extends along an inner circumference of the connecting piece in a connecting region for the dispensing nozzle. The tamper detection system further comprises an evaluation unit connected to the sensor segments to detect a pressure acting on each of the sensor segments.
