TEMPERATURE-BASED TAMPER DETECTION
A temperature sensing device for a temperature-based tamper detection system includes an integrated circuit (IC) and a logic circuit. The logic circuit sends an enable signal to the IC, causing it to measure the device temperature, and initiates a security timer. In response to not receiving the device temperature before the security timer expires, the logic circuit outputs a tamper event signal and an error code. The logic circuit can disable the enable signal in response to not receiving the device temperature before the timer expires. In some implementations, the logic circuit is a first logic circuit, and the IC includes an analog integrated circuit (AIC) and a second logic circuit. The second logic circuit receives the enable signal from the first logic circuit, causes the AIC to measure the device temperature, and outputs a ready signal and the device temperature to the first logic circuit.

Vehicle control device, exhaust gas analysis system, vehicle control program, and vehicle control method for vehicle tests in which a vehicle is contained in a soak chamber prior to testing
The present invention makes it possible to provide temperature traceability for a test vehicle. A vehicle control device controls temperature information for a test vehicle and includes a peripheral temperature acquisition unit that acquires a peripheral temperature of a test vehicle from a first temperature sensor that is provided in a soak chamber where the test vehicle is stored or in a test chamber where the test vehicle is tested, a position information acquisition unit that acquires position information for the test vehicle, and a recording unit that associates the peripheral temperature of the test vehicle with the position information for that test vehicle and records the association.

Method, System, Electronic Device, and Storage Medium For Storing and Collecting Temperature Data
A method, a system, an electronic device, and a storage medium for storing and collecting temperature data are disclosed. The storage method includes: acquiring starting time data corresponding to a temperature recording time period and acquiring actual temperature data corresponding to each time stamp; obtaining at least one piece of target compressed data corresponding to the temperature recording time period by compressing the actual temperature data; and storing the starting time data and the target compressed data corresponding to the temperature recording time period into a storage space of a temperature recorder. In the present disclosure, multiple pieces of temperature data may correspond to one piece of compressed data (for example, 1 bit), so that each piece of temperature data only occupies a small storage space, and starting time data and multiple pieces of compressed data are stored in a temperature recorder together, thereby effectively improving the storage performance of the temperature recorder, and achieving rapid collection of the temperature data. The blockchain-based verification for the collected temperature data ensures the security and authenticity of temperature data collection and prevents data from being tampered with.

METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC AND STERILE-CONTAINER-SPECIFIC DETECTION OF STERILISATION CYCLES CARRIED OUT BY A STERILE CONTAINER
A method for automatic and sterile-container-specific detection of sterilization cycles carried out by a sterile container, and a system for carrying out the method. A temperature acting on the sterile container is detected using a temperature measurement device associated with the sterile container. A temperature measurement device detects the temperature at fixed first time intervals. Detected temperature values are stored in a memory once a predetermined first limit temperature has been exceeded. Storage of detected temperature values is suspended once a predetermined second limit temperature has been undershot or after a predetermined duration has elapsed after the first limit temperature has been exceeded. The stored temperature values are compared with reference temperature values. A deviation between the temperature values and the reference temperature values is determined. A counter and/or a display device are/is actuated when a deviation is determined within a predetermined tolerance range.

Systems and methods for sensor monitoring and sensor-related calculations
Systems and methods for temperature monitoring and environmentally related calculations are disclosed herein. A system according to embodiments herein may include a memory, a network interface, and one or more processors. The system may receive one or more environmental readings from a sensor taking readings at an environmentally controlled area. The system may further determine a timestamp corresponding to each of the one or more readings and calculate, using the one or more readings and their corresponding timestamps, an exposure of a good stored within the temperature controlled area. The system may further determine that the calculated exposure of the good has surpassed a pre-determined exposure threshold for the good and send an electronic message configured to indicate such determination to a user. The system may use a neural network to predict future readings based on current readings and use the predicted future readings in methods described herein.
