Abstract: An air-conditioning control apparatus includes a detector that obtains a thermal image of an occupant, a processing unit that estimates the thermal sensation of the occupant from a temperature distribution obtained by the detector, and a control unit that controls an air conditioner according to the estimation result of the thermal sensation. Upon detecting the occupant, the detector captures a thermal image of an area around the occupant.

Abstract: A physical quantity sensor includes a detection circuit that outputs a detection value indicating a physical quantity applied to a detecting element and a correction processor that corrects the detection value to output a corrected value. The correction processor causes the corrected value to be substantially 0 (zero) if all of conditions that an absolute value of a time-differentiated value of the detection value is not larger than a predetermined differential threshold and that an absolute value of the corrected value is not larger than a predetermined output threshold are satisfied. This physical quantity sensor prevents the output signal from changing due a temperature change in spite of a small number of components.
