Abstract

See full text

Sensor housings, modules, and luminaires comprising the same are provided. The sensor housings and modules set forth herein have improved heat sinking abilities for dissipating heat from a sensor while simultaneously facilitating thermal isolation of the sensor. Briefly, a sensor housing described herein comprises a cavity for housing a sensor and a heat sink. The heat sink is configured to dissipate heat from the sensor housing and thermally isolate the sensor housing from other heat generating components, such as other portions of a luminaire.
