System and method for interference mitigation in a sensing device

Abstract:

A controller for a sensor is configured to receive a control signal from an external device, the control signal corresponding to potential interference. The controller adjusts a sensing parameter using the control signal to avoid the potential interference. The potential interference is at least one of an electrical interference and an optical interference. The controller may include a sensor module that includes circuitry configured to acquire resulting signals with sensing elements using the adjusted sensing parameter.
