Sensing device and method for controlling a sensing device

A sensing device associating with at least one associated client and a reference device, the reference device being a gateway of a local area network to which the sensing device is connected, and the sensing device comprises:

• an obtainer configured to obtain a first client list of the at least one associated client and a second client list of clients that are currently connected to the same local area network as the sensing device by connecting with the reference device;
• a comparator configured to compare the first client list with the second client list to determine a comparison result, the comparison result indicating at least one matching client among the at least one associated client that is connected to the local area network as the sensing device through the reference device;
• a controllable component;
• a processor configured to determine at least one state control strategy related to the comparison result based on the comparison result;
• and
• a controller configured to control a state of the sensing device by controlling the controllable component based on the at least one state control strategy.
