Abstract
A sensor device includes an infrared sensor configured to generate sensor data. The sensor device also includes a configurable digital analysis block. The configurable digital analysis block is configured to generate classification data based on the sensor data. The configurable digital analysis block includes a plurality of selectable analysis blocks that can be selectively included in generating the classification data.
Claims20
A sensor device, comprising:
- a sensor configured to generate sensor data;
- and
- a configurable digital analysis block configured to receive the sensor data and to generate a classification based on the sensor data, the configurable digital analysis block including a plurality of selectable analysis blocks that can be selectively included or excluded from participating in generating the classification.
A method, comprising:
- receiving, with a configurable digital analysis block of a sensor device, configuration data indicating which of a plurality of selectable analysis blocks of the configurable digital analysis block will participate in generating a classification;
- generating, with a sensor of the sensor device, sensor data;
- and
- generating, with the configurable digital analysis block, the classification based on the sensor data.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- generating sensor data with an infrared sensor of a sensor device;
- generating, from the sensor data, feature data with a feature generator of the sensor device;
- generating, with a neural network of the sensor device, first classification data based on the feature data;
- and
- generating, with the finite state machine of the sensor device, second classification data based on the first classification data.
