Wireless sensor module
First Claim
1. A wireless sensor module comprising:
- a primary body;
a primary processor mounted to said primary body;
a first plurality of sockets mounted to said primary body and disposed in electrical communication with said primary processor;
a secondary body releasibly mounted to said primary body through a first socket of said first plurality of sockets;
a secondary processor mounted to said secondary body, said primary processor and said secondary processor disposed in electrical communication with one another through said first socket and operating asynchronously;
a first transducer releasibly mounted to said primary body and disposed in electrical communication with said primary processor through a second socket of said first plurality of sockets, said primary processor configured to direct the electrical signals generated by said first transducer to said secondary processor;
a first wireless transceiver disposed in electrical communication with said primary processor;
wherein said secondary processor is configured to process the electrical signals generated by said first transducer independently of said primary processor and selectively communicate output to said primary processor; and
wherein said primary processor is configured to control communications through said first wireless transceiver independently of said secondary processor.

Abstract
A wireless sensor module can include a primary body, a primary processor, a first plurality of sockets, a secondary body, a secondary processor, a first transducer, and a wireless transceiver. The primary processor and the sockets can be mounted to the primary body. The secondary body can be releasibly mounted to the primary body and the secondary processor can be mounted to the secondary body. The primary processor and the secondary processor can be in electrical communication with one another, operating asynchronously. The primary processor can direct electrical signals generated by the first transducer to the secondary processor. The secondary processor can process the electrical signals independently of the primary processor and selectively communicate output to the primary processor. The primary processor can be configured to control communications through the wireless transceiver independently of the secondary processor.
