    Abstract: A dryer includes a rotating drum; a lifter positionable on an inner surface of the rotating drum; an energy harvester positionable inside the lifter so that while the energy harvester is positioned inside the lifter, the energy harvester generates electric power as the rotating drum rotates while the lifter is positioned on the inner surface of the rotating drum; a humidity sensor positionable inside the lifter so that while the humidity sensor is positioned inside the lifter, the humidity sensor receives the electric power generated by the energy harvester and senses humidity; a circuit board positionable inside the lifter and on which the humidity sensor is disposed; and an air passage formed through the lifter so as to allow air inside the rotating drum to pass through the lifter. The humidity sensor senses the humidity according to air passing through the air passage of the lifter.

    Abstract: An article storage apparatus includes a sensor device sensing gases included in air in a chamber where an article is stored; a concentrator concentrating the gases contained in the air; a filtering device filtering the gases contained in the air; and at least one processor. The at least one processor controls the concentrator to concentrate the gases contained in the air, and identifies a condition of the article based on a concentration level of a target gas related to the article measured by the sensor device when the target gas is extracted as gases desorbed from the concentrator pass the filtering device.

    Abstract: Provided is a dryer and a method of controlling the same that may determine whether drying is complete based on a temperature difference between a temperature of air discharged to a drum and a temperature of air flowing in from the drum. According to various embodiments, the dryer includes a drum; a heat pump; a duct configured to accommodate an evaporator and a condenser of the heat pump, heat air flowing in from the drum and discharge the air to the drum; a first temperature sensor configured to measure a temperature of the air discharged to the drum; a second temperature sensor configured to measure a temperature of the air flowing in from the drum; and a controller configured to determine that drying is complete, based on maintaining a difference value between the temperature of the air discharged and the temperature of the air flowing in below a preset value.
