According to the present invention, a system for monitoring an enclosure for a set of parameters and for opening the enclosure upon detecting the set of parameters is provided. The system comprises a sensing device disposed in the enclosure for detecting a plurality of events in the enclosure, a comparator connected to the sensing device for comparing the plurality of events to the set of parameters, a timer connected to the comparator for determining a time elapse of the plurality of events, a signal device connected to the timer for transmitting a signal when the plurality of events reaches or exceeds the set of parameters, and a controller connected to the signal device for receiving the signal and for opening the enclosure. In a preferred embodiment the enclosure comprises a trunk of a vehicle and the parameters include a maximum carbon dioxide gas concentration, a maximum air temperature, and motion.

1. A system for monitoring a compartment and opening the compartment when predetermined conditions exist in the compartment, the system comprising:a first sensor for measuring a first parameter, the first sensor being disposed within the compartment; a second sensor for measuring a second parameter, the second sensor being disposed within the compartment; a comparator in communication with the first and second sensors, wherein the comparator compares the measured first parameter to a predetermined stored first parameter and if the measured first parameter exceeds the value of the predetermined stored first parameter the comparator compares the measured second parameter to a predetermined stored second parameter if the measured second parameter exceeds the value of the predetermined stored second parameter; a timer communicating with the comparator for determining a first time elapse and a second time elapse, the first time elapse corresponding to the period said first measured parameter exceeds said predetermined stored first parameter and the second time elapse corresponding to the period said second measured parameter exceeds said predetermined stored second parameter, the comparator compares the first time elapse to a first predetermined time elapse and the second time elapse to a second predetermined time elapse, if said first time elapse and said second time elapse exceed said first predetermined time elapse and said second predetermined time elapse, respectively, a signal device communicating with the comparator generates a control signal for receipt by a controller communicating with the signal device, wherein the controller causes the compartment to open in response to receiving the control signal.
