Methods, systems, and apparatus for monitoring and controlling electronic devices using wired and wireless protocols are disclosed. The systems and apparatus may monitor their environment for signals from electronic devices. The systems and apparatus may take and disambiguate the signals that are received from the devices in their environment to identify the devices and associate control signals with the devices. The systems and apparatus may use communication means to send control signals to the identified electronic devices. Multiple apparatuses or systems may be connected together into networks, including mesh networks, to make for a more robust architecture.

An object of the present invention is to provide a dioxazine pigment having excellent fluidity. More specifically, an object of the present invention is to provide a dioxazine pigment in which practically sufficient fluidity is attained in both (1) initial viscosity and (2) storage stability when the dioxazine pigment is used in a printing ink application. The object is attained by providing a dioxazine pigment having a contact angle with respect to water according to an infiltration rate method in a range of 30? to 75?, and a contact angle with respect to 1-bromonaphthalene according to an infiltration rate method in a range of 30? to 75?.
