This application relates to a method and an apparatus for determining a status of a battery temperature sensor, a medium, a vehicle, and a server. The method includes: receiving reading statistics of a temperature sensor that are collected at intervals of a predetermined time in a stable vehicle working condition, where the reading statistics include a highest temperature reading and a lowest temperature reading of the temperature sensor within each predetermined time; determining a highest temperature reading trend, a lowest temperature reading trend, and a largest temperature reading difference in the stable vehicle working condition based on the highest temperature reading and the lowest temperature reading; and determining a status of the temperature sensor based on the highest temperature reading trend, the lowest temperature reading trend, and the largest temperature reading difference. The method is capable of accurately determining whether a battery temperature sensor is anomalous.

The invention relates to the testing of the thermal performance of at least one object (6), such as an electric cable. First, at least one initial temperature curve is obtained by subjecting at least one first enclosure (1) having side walls lined with thermally insulating material to a predetermined test curve inside a first furnace (3) while monitoring the temperature inside each of the at least one first enclosure. The at least one initial temperature curve is stored in a database (5). Then, the at least one object is placed inside a second furnace (7) which is heated in accordance with one of the at least one initial temperature curve while determining a resulting test parameter for each of the at least one object, the test parameter being an indicator of the thermal performance. The method can e.g. be used in a process of selecting the necessary amount and type of thermally insulating material for a given application of the object.

A maintenance system for a gate device includes a controller, at least one temperature sensor, and an evaluation unit. The controller has a motor control unit which actuates a drive apparatus for driving a gate member, and a non-volatile memory which stores gate data. The gate data is retrievable from the non-volatile memory. The at least one temperature sensor is arranged in a region of the drive apparatus. The at least one temperature sensor continuously transmits a detected temperature as further gate data to the non-volatile memory of the controller. The evaluation unit creates a temperature curve for each of the at least one temperature sensor over a preset operating cycle. A comparison of more than one temperature curve allows a conclusion to be drawn of a need for maintenance of the gate device.

A server device includes a controller. The controller is configured to acquire temperature information that is information associated with a temperature of a predetermined area inside a vehicle, the predetermined area being configured to store a luggage and the predetermined area being configured to be locked and unlocked. The controller is configured to acquire luggage information that is information on the luggage to be stored in the predetermined area, and determine whether the predetermined area is an environment suitable for storage of the luggage at a scheduled storage time of the luggage based on the luggage information and the temperature information.

A system is provided for integrating conformal electronics devices into apparel. The system includes a flexible substrate onto which a flexible device is disposed.
