ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240205526 titled 'ELECTRONIC APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The electronic apparatus described in the patent application includes multiple thermometers and a control unit that restricts operation when a temperature reaches a threshold. The control unit calculates temperature differences between a heat source and its threshold, as well as between an outer casing and its threshold. It then corrects these differences based on temperature increase characteristics and displays the information.

  • The electronic apparatus has multiple thermometers and a control unit.
  • The control unit restricts operation when a temperature hits a threshold.
  • It calculates temperature differences between the heat source and its threshold, and the outer casing and its threshold.
  • The differences are corrected based on temperature increase characteristics.
  • The corrected information is displayed.
