1. A package tracking device that detects light external to the device, comprising:
- a light sensor;
a first lens at a first location configured to receive light external to the device;
a second lens, at a second location that is different from the first location, configured to receive light external to the device such that the light sensor detects light external to the device regardless of a position of the device in a package; and
a memory configured to store information associated with light detected by the device.

11. A computer-implemented method for detecting light external to a package tracking device, the method comprising the steps of:
-
receiving, at a first lens of the device, light external to the device; receiving, at a second lens of the device, light external to the device, wherein the second light sensor lens is located at a second location that is different from a first location of the first light sensor lens; detecting, using a light sensor, light external to the device regardless of a position of the device in a package; and storing, at a memory of the device, information associated with light detected by the device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21)
