Apple’s latest patent is a new way to make sure the company’s products stay cool, in every way.
With this patent, “an accurate absolute temperature measurement can be obtained for any surface or volume of an electronic device.”
The patent says: “A sum of the differential temperature and the first measured temperature is a second measured temperature, quantifying a temperature of the second end of the differential temperature probe.” These sensors could be in different places, for example the back crystal of an Apple Watch, but the system is designed so that sensors could be on internal and external surfaces and data from the two would be compared, specifically so that, “As a result of this construction, an accurate absolute temperature measurement can be obtained for any surface or volume of an electronic device.”
The more accurate the temperature measurement, the better a device can adjust things to ensure it doesn’t overheat, wasting energy along the way, not to mention making it less comfortable in the user’s hand or wrist. Battery savings are an important possible result from something like this. As this is a patent, we don’t know when, or even if, this system might be implemented, but it clearly has potential.
