Abstract
In an example implementation according to aspects of the present disclosure, a method may include receiving a first data value from a sensor coupled to a headset. The first data value indicates a condition indicative of condensation local to the sensor. A first delta based on the first data value and a predetermined condensation data value is determined. Based on the first delta surpassing a first threshold, a cooling device coupled to the headset is deactivated.
Claims15
A device comprising:
- a headset;
- a sealed enclosure coupled to the headset, wherein the sealed enclosure directs a sensory input to a wearer and restricts ambient interference;
- a cooling device coupled to the sealed enclosure;
- a sensor communicatively coupled to the cooling device;
- a controller, communicatively coupled to the cooling device and the sensor, configured to:
- receive a first data value from the sensor, wherein the first data value indicates a condition indicative of condensation local to the sensor,
- determine a first delta based on the first data value and a predetermined condensation data value;
- and
- deactivate the cooling device based on the first delta surpassing a first threshold.

A computing device comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory device, communicatively coupled to the processor, having instructions stored thereon that when executed cause the processor to:
- receive a first data value from a sensor coupled to a headset, wherein the first data value indicates a condition indicative of condensation local to the sensor,
- determine a first delta based on the first data value and a predetermined condensation data value;
- and
- activate a cooling device coupled to the headset based on the first delta falling short of a first threshold.
3 more elements
A method comprising:
- receiving a first data value from a sensor coupled to a headset, wherein the first data value indicates a condition indicative of condensation local to the sensor,
- determining a first delta based on the first data value and a predetermined condensation data value;
- receiving a second data value, from a second sensor, wherein the second data value indicates a transmission of a signal to the headset and an attenuation, of the transmission;
- determining a second delta based on the second data value and a predetermined attenuation data value;
- and
- deactivating the cooling device based on the first delta surpassing a first threshold and the second delta surpassing a second threshold.
