Method and system for using data packet beaconing to determine compliance with protocols
One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for determining a time-length of an action are provided. For example, a first data packet, of a plurality of data packets, may be received from a beacon. The first data packet may be associated with a first event and may comprise a first counter value. A second data packet, of the plurality of data packets, may be received from the beacon. The second data packet may be associated with a second event and may comprise a second counter value. A time-length of an action may be determined based upon an evaluation of the first counter value and the second counter value. Compliance with a protocol may be determined by comparing the time-length of the action with a time-limit associated with the protocol. A report may be generated based upon the time-length of the action and the compliance with the protocol.
Medicinal dosage device
A medicinal dosage device may comprise a base having dosing indicators operably connected to the base. The dosing indicators may comprise about four arms spaced at about ninety degree intervals, which may indicate a three hour block of time. The dosing indicators may be selectably movable as a unit relative to the base to indicate medicinal dosage times for at least two different medications.
Enclosures for coupling to asset walls
In some examples, an enclosure can include a lever to interact with an asset wall when the enclosure is coupled to the asset wall, an actuator coupled to a switch to interact with the lever, and an aperture to allow the actuator to move with the lever when the enclosure is removed from the asset wall, wherein the actuator provides a signal to the switch when the actuator moves beyond a threshold angle.
Sensor bypass
Systems and techniques are provided for sensor bypass. Activation may be received at a bypass input of an entry point sensor of a security system while the entry point sensor is in an armed mode. The entry point sensor may detect that the entry point monitored by the entry point sensor is closed. The entry point sensor may enter into a bypass mode. Detection by the entry point sensor of an opening of the entry point while the entry point sensor is in the bypass mode may not result in the generation of an alarm by the security system.
Monitoring a subject
According to an aspect, there is provided a computer-implemented method of monitoring a subject. The method comprises, following detection of a first fall by the subject and a revocation of a fall alert for the first fall due to detecting the subject has stood up after the first fall, obtaining first measurements of movement of the subject; determining a first value of at least one mobility characteristic of the subject from the obtained first movement measurements; determining if the mobility of the subject has degraded after the first fall based on the first value of the at least one mobility characteristic and a second value of the at least one mobility characteristic, wherein the second value is determined from second movement measurements obtained prior to the first fall; and in response to determining that the mobility of the subject has degraded after the first fall, performing a fall alert action in respect of the first fall. A corresponding apparatus and a computer program product are also provided.
DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR ULTRASONIC TRANSMISSION OF ACCELEROMETER DATA
A system for detecting impacts includes a housing configured to be worn by a user. An accelerometer is connected with the housing. The accelerometer is configured to detect an acceleration indicative of an impact experienced by the user. An inaudible tone chip is positioned about the housing. The inaudible tone chip is configured to transmit ultrasonic tones including data of the impact to a remote device. A remote device includes a receiver. The receiver is configured to receive the ultrasonic tones transmitted by the inaudible tone chip

Vehicle warning method, telematics control unit and device based on vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications
A vehicle warning method based on Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is provided. The method is used in a telematics control unit (TCU) installed in a first vehicle and includes: receiving a heartbeat frequency of a user driving the first vehicle; determining whether the heartbeat frequency is within a normal range; adding a first loss-of-control flag into a first basic safety message (BSM) when the heartbeat frequency is not within the normal range; and broadcasting the first BSM.
Device and system for remote regulation and monitoring of drug delivery and method of same
Aspects and embodiments of the present invention generally include a device for patient self-administration of a prescribed medication. The total quantity of doses to be contained in the device, the quantity of prescribed medication comprising each individual dose, and the dosing schedule, collectively referred to as prescription parameters, are determined and controlled solely by a health care provider (HCP) such as the patient's physician. In accordance with a prescribed dosing schedule, the device makes available for administration the precise quantity of prescribed medication constituting an individual dose. Patient access to the medication as well as patient control of the device is limited solely to the aspects of the device necessary to administer the available dose; that is, the patient has no control over the prescription parameters utilized by the device; that is, the quantity of a dose, the availability of individual doses, the schedule at which the doses are made available to the patient, nor the prescribed medication itself which is contained in the device. Preferably, the device also has a monitored subassembly which detects and transmits relevant device information to a remote management system accessible to the HCP, including detected attempts to alter, access, control or otherwise tamper with the device beyond its prescribed use. Advantageously, HCPs may render sufficient oversight and control over the device and its use to mitigate the risks associated with patients self-administering potentially dangerous or abusable medication without direct, in-person supervision.
Network enabled fire sensor and extinguishing system
The network enabled fire sensor and fire extinguishing system is a fire-fighting apparatus comprising a plurality of extinguisher modules. The plurality of extinguisher modules forms a wireless communication link between: a) the plurality of extinguisher modules, and, b) with an appropriate authority. When triggered by fire, the individual extinguisher module: c) releases a fire extinguishing chemical; and, d) transmits an alert message to both the appropriate authority and to the individual extinguisher modules remaining in the plurality of extinguisher modules containing the GPS coordinates of the transmitting individual extinguisher module. Each selected individual extinguisher module compares the GPS coordinates of the selected individual extinguisher mode to the GPS coordinates of the module alert message. If the span of the distance between the two coordinates is less than a previously determined span of distance, than the selected individual extinguisher module releases a fire retardant chemical.
