Abstract
Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for a frangible sensor assembly that includes a circuit board having a retained section, a frangible portion, and a detachable section separated from the retained section by the frangible portion, a conductive element on the retained section that spans the frangible portion, and a sensor sub-assembly electrically coupled to the conductive element. The sensor sub-assembly monitors a continuity signal via the conductive element, detects a break of the frangible portion based on the continuity signal, and generates an alert notification in response to the break of the frangible portion.
