A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11968485B2) discloses a sensing terminal designed for monitoring target objects. The terminal includes a housing, a coupling unit for attaching the target object to the housing, a sensor unit for generating sensing data, a processor for processing the data, and a communication unit for transmitting the data to a server. The sensor unit comprises a first sensor and a second sensor, with the processor activating the second sensor upon receiving a detachment signal from the first sensor to determine if the housing is detached from the target object based on the measurement value of the second sensor.

Furthermore, the patent details a method for monitoring a target object using the sensing terminal, involving generating sensing data, creating transmission unit data for server transmission, and determining detachment based on the second sensor's measurement value. The patent also includes a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium containing a computer program to execute the monitoring method. This innovative technology offers a sophisticated approach to monitoring target objects efficiently and accurately, enhancing data transmission and detachment detection capabilities for improved object surveillance.
