A portable heating chamber system is adapted and configured for use in performing pyrometric proficiency testing. Within an enclosing structure is an array of thermocouples which function as temperature sensors. Heat is generated within the chamber by one or more electric resistive heat sources, and heated air is circulated by one or more electric fans. Outside the enclosing structure are a temperature controller and a data acquisition device, which applies correction factors to the temperature data and determines uncertainties to assess testing proficiency.

The described embodiments include a power-management unit that receives and stores a representation of a temperature state of a battery pack from a battery-monitoring mechanism in a battery pack. For example, an interface circuit (such as a single-wire-interface or SWI circuit) may receive the information from the battery-monitoring mechanism via a signal line, and the information may be stored in a memory (such as a non-transitory computer-readable memory). This stored information is then used by a temperature-monitoring mechanism or circuit to determine the temperature state of the battery pack, which may be used to control or gate charging of a battery in the battery pack.

Disclosed are various embodiments for an automated temperature logging and predictive alerting system for monitoring items that are being cooled or heated. In one embodiment, a predictive logging application may compare a predicted temperature curve of an item to a predefined slope to predict whether or not the item will meet a target threshold. The target threshold may be a target temperature or duration rule that can be aggregated discontinuously over a single day or multiple days. If the projected temperature curve is predicted to not meet the target threshold, the logging application may send alerts notifying a client of available corrective actions. In projecting the predicted slope, the predictive logging application may train machine learning models to analyze historical data associated with the item and the user.

Exemplary embodiments are disclosed of systems and methods for quality monitoring of pallets of goods (e.g., fresh seafood, other perishable goods, nonperishable goods, etc.) in a cargo.

An electronic system for an environmental sensor device is configured to continually collect environmental data (e.g., temperature data, humidity data, or the like). The environmental sensor device is configured to be transported within a container and collect environmental data throughout the shipment.

A sensor assembly with a sensing element sends a sensor signal from the sensing element to attached process transmitter over sensor connection wires. The sensor assembly has memory circuitry for storing information related to the sensor assembly and interface circuitry that provides for digital communication of the stored information with the attached process transmitter. This digital communication is sent over the sensor connection wires.

A semiconductor device includes a substrate having a connector for connection with a host, a semiconductor memory device mounted on the substrate, a temperature sensor mounted on the substrate, and a controller mounted on the substrate. The controller is configured to write, in the semiconductor memory device, write data received through the connector together with temperature data representing temperature detected by the temperature sensor.

A method for monitoring a temperature of an electrical/electronic component connected via an electrical lead system includes using a temperature sensor in heat-conductive contact with the electrical lead system to record a current temperature and determining a temperature of the electrical/electronic component by a model from the current temperature of the temperature sensor when a current is switched off.

The device includes one or more microcontrollers, one or more temperature sensors, and one or more humidity sensors. The one or more temperature sensors are configured to measure one or more temperatures of a container, inside the container, or outside the container, generate one or more temperature signals associated with one or more temperature data representing the measured one or more temperatures, and output the one or more temperature signals to the one or more microcontrollers. The one or more humidity sensors are configured to measure one or more humidity levels outside the container, generate one or more humidity signals associated with one or more humidity data representing the measured one or more humidity levels, and output the one or more humidity signals to the one or more microcontrollers.
