Abstract
A sensing device has a detection portion having a plate shape and including a first set of one or more indication sensors and a securing portion extending from the detection portion. The securing portion secures the device to a piece of electronic equipment having a plate shape, a back and a front, the front including a display with a second set of one or more indication sensors. The securing portion is sized and shaped to fit between the back of the piece of electronic equipment and a base part of a protective cover to secure the device to the piece of electronic equipment.
Claims17
A device, comprising:
- a detection portion having a plate shape and including a first set of one or more indication sensors, which, in operation, detects one or more indications;
- and
- a securing portion extending from the detection portion and configured to secure the device to a piece of electronic equipment having a plate shape, a back and a front, the front including a display with a second set of one or more indication sensors, wherein the back of the piece of electronic equipment is configured to be covered by a base of a protective cover, the protective cover being separate from the securing portion, wherein the securing portion is configured to fit between the back of the piece of electronic equipment and the base of the protective cover to secure the device to the piece of electronic equipment, and wherein the securing portion is configured to prevent the detection portion from dropping off the protective cover while the securing portion is disposed between the back of the piece of electronic equipment and the base of the protective cover.
A system, comprising:
- a first sensing device having:
- a plate-shaped body including one or more sensors;
- and
- a protrusion extending from the body;
- and
- a protective cover that is separate from the protrusion, the protective cover having a base, the base configured to cover a back of a second plate-shaped sensing device, and the base having an opening sized and shaped to receive the protrusion, wherein the protrusion is configured to fit between the base of the protective cover and the back of the second sensing device to secure the first sensing device to the second sensing device, and wherein the protrusion is configured to prevent the first sensing device from dropping off the protective cover while the protrusion is disposed between the back of the second sensing device and the base of the protective cover.
