  • Patent number: 9712985
    Abstract: Some examples include repurposing a mobile device for performing a plurality of nonconventional functions, including a fire detector, a radiation detector, and a Wi-Fi repeater. For example, the mobile device may be configured to serve as a fire detector by one or more modules that may use an onboard camera, microphone, and temperature sensor to monitor an area for fires. In addition, the mobile device may be configured to serve as a radiation detector. For instance, a camera image sensor and/or the memory on the device may be used to detect elevated levels of radiation in the vicinity of the mobile device. In response to detecting a fire and/or radioactivity, the mobile device may send an alert notification to another device. Further, the mobile device may be configured to concurrently serve as a Wi-Fi repeater, such as for extending a range of a wireless router, or the like.
