  • Patent number: 11549834
    Abstract: A multifunctional environmental sensor device is connectable to a terminal of an electronic device for use. The sensor device includes a substrate, a plurality of different types of components mounted on the substrate and including at least a light emitter and an illuminance sensor, and a wiring pattern located on a surface of the substrate and including a contact to be in contact with the terminal of the electronic device. The light emitter is mounted on a surface of the substrate opposite to a surface of the substrate on which the illuminance sensor is mounted.

  • Patent number: 11255733
    Abstract: An environment sensor includes a heat generation component, a first sensor and a second sensor disposed such that conductive heat resistances between the first sensor and the heat generation component and between the second sensor and the heat generation component are different from each other, and a controller. The first sensor and the second sensor are capable of measuring a predetermined physical quantity. The first sensor and the second sensor obtain a measured value from the predetermined physical quantity. The measured value fluctuates depending on ambient temperature. The controller is configured to correct the measurement value of one of the first sensor and the second sensor based on the measurement value of the first sensor and the measurement value of the second sensor when the predetermined physical quantity is measured.

  • Patent number: 10554440
    Abstract: A sensor device includes a data acquisition unit configured to acquire different types of measurement data from a plurality of sensors that measure the measurement data, an event determination unit configured to determine that an event occurs when the measurement data satisfies an event condition corresponding to the occurrence of the event, and a transmission controller configured to transmit transmission data in which the measurement data is stored in a predetermined data format. The transmission controller varies the data format of the transmission data in a case where the event does not occur and in a case where the event occurs.
