Abstract: A core body temperature monitoring system comprises a first, core body temperature, thermometer and a second thermometer comprising a heat flux sensor. The second thermometer is for application to the skin for providing temperature monitoring over time. The second thermometer is calibrated using an output from the first core body temperature thermometer during an initial measurement operation. The first thermometer is removably attached to the second thermometer, wherein the first thermometer is adapted for use while attached to the second thermometer, and is then removed when the second thermometer is to be used. This system provides calibration of a flux sensor which is applied to the skin, by using an initial core body temperature measurement. In this way, the functionality and usage of a classic core body temperature thermometer is combined with a wearable continuous monitoring capability.

Abstract: The invention relates to a disaggregation apparatus for identifying an appliance in an electrical network (2) comprising multiple appliances (3, 4, 5). A voltage meter (7) measures a first change in a mains voltage (V) delivered to the appliances of the electrical network, while an operational state of an appliance is modified, and a second change in the mains voltage, while a switchable load is switched. An appliance determination unit (9) determines the appliance, of which the operational state has been changed, based on the measured first change in the mains voltage, the measured second change in the mains voltage and the resistance of the switchable load. Thus, an appliance can be determined without detecting switching flickers in very short time durations, i.e. high sampling rates and continuous monitoring are not necessarily required. This reduces the technical efforts of the disaggregation apparatus for performing the disaggregation function.
