1. A sensing device comprising:
- a sensor module that includes a group of sensors, at least one of which is set as a motion sensor, and can switch an operation mode to an overall operation mode in which all of the group of sensors operate and a partial operation mode in which a part of the sensors including the at least one sensor set as the motion sensor operate; and
a control unit that controls the switching of the operation mode of the sensor module on the basis of an output from the motion sensor.

Abstract
A sensing device includes: a sensor module that includes a group of sensors, at least one of which is set as a motion sensor, and can switch an operation mode to an overall operation mode in which all of the group of sensors operate and a partial operation mode in which a part of the sensors including the at least one sensor set as the motion sensor operate; and a control unit that controls the switching of the operation mode of the sensor module on the basis of an output from the motion sensor.

3. A sensing device comprising:
-
a sensor module that includes a group of sensors and can switch an operation mode to an overall operation mode in which all of the group of sensors operate and a stop operation mode in which at least a part of the sensors stop; an auxiliary sensor module that includes at least one motion sensor; and a control unit that controls the switching of the operation mode of the sensor module on the basis of an output from the motion sensor. - View Dependent Claims (4)

5. A sensing device comprising:
-
a sensor module that includes a group of sensors, at least one of which is set as a motion sensor, and can switch an operation mode to an overall operation mode in which all of the group of sensors operate and a stop operation mode in which at least a part of the sensors stop; an auxiliary sensor module that includes at least one motion sensor and can switch an operation mode to an operation mode in which the sensors normally operate and a stop mode in which the sensors stop the operation; and a control unit that controls the switching of the operation mode of the sensor module on the basis of an output from the motion sensor of the sensor module or the auxiliary sensor module and controls to switch the operation mode of the auxiliary sensor module to the stop mode when the operation mode of the sensor module is the overall operation mode and to the operation mode when the operation mode of the sensor module is the stop operation mode. - View Dependent Claims (6)
