Abstract

A system includes a sensor device for monitoring properties of a building material within which the sensor device can be embedded. The sensor device includes a controller, a memory, one or more sensors connected to the controller for measuring one or more properties of the building material, and a power supply for powering components of the sensor device. The power supply includes a battery and a power regulator. The sensor device includes one or more motion sensors for sensing a movement pattern of the sensor device and determining if the movement pattern matches a known gesture pattern. The system includes a power management subcircuit for activating the sensor device by activating the power regulator to power 'ON' components of the sensor device. The power management subcircuit receives an activation signal from the one or more motion sensors if the movement pattern matches the known gesture pattern.
