A sensing device includes a first unit which includes a sensing module, a battery, and a connector for charging the battery, and a second unit to which the first unit is detachably coupled. The connector is accommodated in the second unit and thus is blocked from being exposed to the outside in a state where the first unit is coupled to the second unit.

Sensing device

A server includes a memory, a communication module configured to exchange data with a mobile terminal or a home appliance, and a processor configured to receive login information from the mobile terminal based on a first communication mode, to perform login based on the login information, to receive a session maintenance request from the mobile terminal based on a second communication mode after login, and to initialize a session duration according to the session maintenance request. Thus, it is possible to control the home appliance in real time via the server.

Server for managing home appliance and system including the same

An electronic device includes a memory including a first storage area in an active state and a second storage area in an inactive state, and a first controller configured to execute a first operating system stored in the first storage area, and execute a management command for firmware update on the first operating system, wherein the first controller receives the management command from a management serer, receives update data based on the management command, store the update data in the second storage area, activates the second storage area, deactivates the first storage area, and executes an updated first operating system within the update data.

Method and device for updating firmware based on device management command

The present invention relates to information management systems for a home appliance, and more particularly, to an information management system for a home appliance which is embodied to enable to communicate between the home appliance and a server system for providing information a user requires, quickly. The information management system for a home appliance includes a home appliance having a predetermined ID, and a server system having the ID of the home appliance recorded thereon, and provided to be able to communicate with the home appliance for transmitting/receiving predetermined information with the home appliance upon request from the home appliance with the ID recorded thereon, already.
