  • Temperature threshold monitoring system
    Patent number: 9779609
    Abstract: A temperature threshold monitoring system for monitoring an ambient temperature within a discrete space, and methods of making and using such a temperature threshold monitoring system, whereby the temperature threshold monitoring system includes a temperature sensor and a microcontroller communicatively coupled to the temperature sensor. The microcontroller can be configured to generate an alert indicium when the temperature sensor senses an ambient temperature within the discrete space which corresponds to a predetermined low-temperature threshold or a predetermined high-temperature threshold. As to particular embodiments, the temperature threshold monitoring system can be configured for coupling to a dependent object within the discrete space.
