  • Portable Electronic Device with Environmental Sensor
    Publication number: 20150073741
    Abstract: There is provided a portable electronic device with one or more environmental sensors for measuring an environmental or ambient parameter, a compensator for reducing the difference between a sensor output and the ambient parameter, the compensator being connected to receive a first input based on the sensor output and a second input based on an output of compensator calculated during a previous time step of calculation, and a context evaluator (36) for replacing the second input by an input selected based on conditions as determined by the context evaluator.
