    Abstract: Various implementations relate generally to a multi-sensor device. Some implementations more particularly relate to a multi-sensor device including a ring of radially-oriented photosensors. Some implementations more particularly relate to a multi-sensor device that is orientation-independent with respect to a central axis of the ring. Some implementations of the multi-sensor devices described herein also include one or more additional sensors. For example, some implementations include an axially-directed photosensor. Some implementations also can include one or more temperature sensors configured to sense an exterior temperature, for example, an ambient temperature of an outdoors environment around the multi-sensor. Additionally or alternatively, some implementations can include a temperature sensor configured to sense an interior temperature within the multi-sensor device. Particular implementations provide, characterize, or enable a compact form factor. Particular implementations provide, characterize, or enable a multi-sensor device requiring little or no wiring, and in some such instances, little or no invasion, perforation or reconstruction of a building or other structure on which the multi-sensor device is mounted.

    Abstract: Techniques are described for generating a graphical user interface for providing information and controlling optically switchable windows connected by a network. Windows are graphically represented using interactive smart objects that are placed within views of the graphical user interface in a manner corresponding to their physical location. In another aspect, a method, system, and/or computer program product is described for associating network IDs of optically switchable windows with the locations at which the windows are installed. Window locations are determined by analyzing received wireless transmissions that are sent from transmitters associated with each of the optically switchable windows. The determined locations are then compared with a representation of the building that provides the window locations. Upon comparison, the network ID of each window, which is communicated through the window transmissions, is associated with the appropriate window location on the representation of the building.

    Abstract: In one aspect, a method, system, and/or computer program product is described for generating a graphical user interface for providing information and controlling optically switchable windows connected by a network.

    Abstract: FIG. 1 is a front view of an obround flush-mount faceplate.
    FIG. 2 is a rear view of the obround flush-mount faceplate of FIG. 1.
    FIG. 3 is a left side view of the obround flush-mount faceplate of FIG. 1.
    FIG. 4 is a right side view of the obround flush-mount faceplate of FIG. 1.
    FIG. 5 is a bottom view of the obround flush-mount faceplate of FIG. 1.
    FIG. 6 is a top view of the obround flush-mount faceplate of FIG. 1.
    FIG. 7 is an isometric view of the obround flush-mount faceplate of FIG. 1.
    FIG. 8 is a front view of the obround flush-mount faceplate of FIG. 1 in an in-use state with a smartglass controller shown mounted therewith; and,
    FIG. 9 is an isometric view of the obround flush-mount faceplate in the in-use state of FIG. 8.
    Dashed or broken lines and a lack of shading depict environmental subject matter that is not part of the claimed faceplate but is included to provide further context for the claimed design. Such environmental subject matter includes the back face of the obround flush-mount faceplate, as well as the obround smartglass controller portion seen in FIGS. 8 and 9 in the in-use state.
    Stipple shading is used to show surface contouring and is not indicative of surface texture. Dash-dot-dash boundary lines are used to indicate transitions between broken line/unshaded areas and solid line/shaded areas.
