DISPLAY SYSTEM
A display system includes: a transmissive liquid crystal display panel; a light control panel having an active area with a light control area; a temperature detector provided in the liquid crystal display panel and having a detection area with a resistive element; a backlight; and a controller. A display area of the liquid crystal display panel, the active area, and the detection area overlap on an optical path of a projection light. The light control panel is disposed at such an angle that, when the light control area is in a light reflection state, the light control panel reflects external light to a position out of the optical path and different from a position of the liquid crystal display panel. The controller causes the light control area to reflect light when an output indicating that the resistive element has a predetermined temperature or higher is obtained.

Apparatus for Measuring Precipitation with High Accuracy and Method for Controlling the Same
There is provided with a precipitation meter which includes: an upper receiver in which an upper heating unit is embedded to provide heat to an upper surface of the upper receiver to prevent snow from being accumulated thereon, wherein the upper receiver is comprised of a first inner side surface forming inner space for collecting water and a first outer side surface which is an opposite surface of the first inner side surface; a lower receiver with a funnel-shaped part, positioned underneath the upper receiver; a siphon, positioned under the center area of the funnel-shaped part; a tipping bucket unit for receiving the waterdrops from the siphon; a precipitation calculation unit for receiving information on the seesawing movement of the tipping bucket unit and calculating an amount of precipitation by referring to the seesawing movement; and a drainage unit for allowing the waterdrops to be drained out.
ELECTRICAL PLUG
The present disclosure provides an electrical plug including a first temperature detection element and a second temperature detection element. When the processor determines that the temperature of the contact pins is greater than or equal to a temperature threshold according to a first detection signal outputted by the first temperature detection element and a second detection signal outputted by the second temperature detection element, the processor disables the electrical plug to transmit the input power to a load. When one of the temperature detection elements fails, the electrical plug determines whether the temperature of the electrical plug is greater than or equal to the temperature threshold according to the other one of the temperature detection elements. The electrical plug meets the redundant design required for functional safety to avoid unexpected hazards caused by the failure of a single temperature detection element. Therefore, the stability of the electrical plug is enhanced.
