Abstract
A method includes: acquiring temperature values from a plurality of temperature sensors spatially distributed within a device; using the temperature values, calculating skin temperature values corresponding to each of the temperature sensors; comparing the skin temperature values to a first temperature threshold; in response to determining that at least one of the skin temperature values exceeds the first temperature threshold, measuring temperature over time; comparing the temperature over time to a second temperature threshold; and in response to determining that the temperature over time exceeds the second temperature threshold, reducing power consumption of the device.
