Abstract

In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a temperature-controlled enclosure for a sensing device comprising insulating air gaps, a fan, and a heatsink. The enclosure maintains the sensing device within a desired operating temperature range while operating in automotive environments with high ambient temperatures and solar radiation. The enclosure is configured to be securely affixed to an automobile interior and has a configuration of temperature-control systems which allows for unimpeded functioning of the sensing device's communications hardware.
