  • Publication number: 20240132159
    Abstract: A vehicle closure module overtravel accommodating system includes a closure module of a vehicle. The closure module is pivotably coupled to a vehicle frame and is configured to pivot relative to the vehicle frame back-and-forth between a closed position and an open position. The system further includes a breakaway mount of the vehicle, and a bumper assembly having a head disposed on a base. The bumper assembly engages the breakaway mount to secure the bumper assembly within the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20240085223
    Abstract: An electronic device may include an environmental sensor. In particular, the sensor may include a layer of metal and be operable as an anemometer, a thermometer, a bolometer, and/or a heat flux sensor. To operate as an anemometer or thermometer, circuitry may heat the layer of metal and calculate an air speed based on a decay of the metal temperature. To operate as a bolometer, a first portion of the metal may have a first optical absorption/insulation (e.g., be insulated), while a second portion may have a second optical absorption/insulation (e.g., be uncoated). Differences in heating/cooling of the first and second portions may be used to measure solar radiation. To operate as a heat flux sensor, different metals may be used, and Seebeck voltages between the different metals may be measured. The metal may be deposited on the housing or may be incorporated into a mesh on the device.

  • Publication number: 20240085258
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to an apparatus having a housing, including a port exposed to an environment. The apparatus includes a pressure sensor disposed within the housing to measure a pressure of the environment. The pressure sensor includes a membrane to facilitate detection of a presence of an aggressor by using dynamic response analysis.

  • Publication number: 20240085449
    Abstract: An electronic device may include a housing and a display in the housing. The display may be used as an anemometer to measure the speed of ambient air in the device's environment. In particular, the display may be monitored by a temperature sensor until it reaches an equilibrium temperature, at which point it may be heated by increasing the brightness of the display or using a separate heater. After heating, a cooling response of the display may be measured, and the ambient air speed may be calculated based on the cooling response of the display. Instead of measuring the air speed using the display, other components, such as a pressure sensor, may be used to measure the air speed by heating the components and measuring a cooling response of the components. Multiple temperature sensors may be incorporated into the device to determine a wind direction in addition to air speed.

  • Publication number: 20240035912
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to an apparatus having a housing including a port exposed to an environment. A pressure sensor is disposed within the housing to measure a pressure of the environment. A medium partially fills a sensor cavity or is coated over the pressure sensor, and a cap including multiple openings is disposed over the pressure sensor. The openings of the cap are arranged to be offset from the port.
