Law/Patents - Patents / sensing device with proximity sensor
Italian term or phrase: possibilità di impiego
speaking of a sort of sensing device that is..
"...in grado di ridurre considerevolmente il numero di componenti elettronici utilizzati e quindi in grado di ridurne fortemente le dimensioni e i costi aumentandone così le possibilità di impiego e favorendone l’introduzione in dispositivi, applicazioni e mercati in cui fino ad aggi risultavano di difficile utilizzo"
I just can't seem to come up with a suitable phrase here. Maybe something like "use potential" or something better.
Any suggestions?

neutral  Alfredo Tutino: questo riguarda "di difficile utilizzo" - alla fine della frase - e non "possibilità di impiego"; o almeno, così mi pare :-)
