  • Publication number: 20190109931
    Abstract: A mobile device with an integrate hazardous detection system which surveys the surrounding area for potential dangers to the wearer. The system includes a mobile device, a housing body, a plurality of holes, an external microcontroller, and a plurality of hazardous condition detectors. The housing body encloses and protects the electronic components and is mounted adjacent to a rear surface of a main enclosure body of the mobile device. The hazardous condition detectors survey the area for dangerous indicators such as smoke, explosive chemicals, oncoming traffic, and guns to name a few non-limiting examples. The hazardous condition detectors are distributed about the rear surface and mounted within the housing body. The holes expose the hazardous condition detectors to the environment outside the housing body. Specifically, the holes traverse into the housing body. The microcontroller gathers and analyzes the data gathered by the hazardous condition detectors.
