Abstract:
1. A personal mobile device light sensor test system, comprising: a frame having: a transport system to carry a device under test (DUT) containing a sensor through the first and second areas; a first test scenario located in the first area and not in the second area; a second test scenario located in the second area and not in the first area; a processing unit to analyze sensed data that was sensed by the DUT's sensor while the DUT was being carried through the first and second areas to determine, based on the sensed data and not timing information, what segments of the sensed data were sensed in the first area and what segments of the sensed data were sensed in the second area; and a sensor data pattern retrieval unit for retrieving sensor data patterns associated with the first test scenario and the second test scenario, wherein the sensor data patterns correspond to data produced by a properly functioning sensor, of a same type as the sensor of the DUT, as the properly functioning sensor is exposed to the first test scenario and the second test scenario, wherein the processing unit determines what segments of the sensed data were sensed in the first area and what segments of the sensed data were sensed in the second area by comparing the sensed data with the sensor data patterns.
