  • Publication number: 20130285546
    Abstract: A sensing type lighting device includes a lighting main body, a sensing element, and an electromagnetic wireless communication module. The lighting main body includes a controlling circuit and a light source set. The sensing element and the electromagnetic wireless communication module are disposed within the lighting main body. A controlling method for a sensing type lighting group includes the following steps. Firstly, a first lighting device with a first sensing element and a first electromagnetic wireless communication module is provided. Then, a second lighting device with a second electromagnetic wireless communication module is provided. According to an environmental sensing result of the first sensing element, a communication channel between the first and second electromagnetic wireless communication modules is established. Consequently, a light intensity of the first lighting device and/or the second lighting device is correspondingly controlled.

  • Publication number: 20130278423
    Abstract: A detecting device includes at least one transmitter and plural receivers. After the at least one transmitter emits plural incident light beams to a detection zone, plural reflected light beams reflected from the detection zone are received by the plural receivers. If no object is moved within the detection zone, the plural reflected light beams strike a first part of the plural receivers, so that the plural receivers are in an initial reception configuration. If an object is moved within the detection zone, the plural reflected light beams are disturbed by the object and deflected to a second part of the plural receivers, so that the plural receivers are in a disturbed reception configuration. According to the reception configuration change, a moving direction of the object within the detection zone is determined. Consequently, the detecting range is largely enhanced, and the cost is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20130279915
    Abstract: A remotely controllable lighting device includes a control circuit, a light source, and an infrared receiver. After any remote controller is set as a designated remote controller, the designated remote controller can be used to control the remotely controllable lighting device. Alternatively, after any remote controller performs a controlled mode enabling operation, the remote controller can be used to control the remotely controllable lighting device. After one remote controller directly emits the infrared signal to the infrared receiver and the control circuit simultaneously performs a stipulated learning operation, the remote controller is set as the designated remote controller. Moreover, before the stipulated learning operation is performed, an action of announcing the stipulated learning operation is not done.

  • Patent number: 6854882
    Abstract: A rapid response electronic clinical thermometer is disclosed. The clinical thermometer comprises a measuring end portion adhered to a metal head portion having a temperature sensing element and a conductive wire joining the temperature sensing element, characterized in that the conductive wire is adhered to the inner wall of the metal head portion such that the conductive wire is not a heat dissipation portion for heat energy surrounding the sensing element, and further acts as a source of heat energy compensation so as to indicate the accurate temperature, reducing the temperature measuring time.
