Programmable pill box assembly
A programmable pill box assembly includes a pill box that has a plurality of compartments therein for containing pills. A plurality of doors is each hingedly coupled to the pill box. Each of the doors is aligned with a respective one of the compartments for opening and closing the compartments. A sensing unit is coupled to the pill box to sense when each of the doors is opened or closed. A transmission unit is removably coupled to the pill box and the transmission unit transmits an alert signal when the sensing unit senses that a respective one of the doors has not been opened at a predetermined time. A bracelet is worn on a wrist of the user and the bracelet is in wireless communication with the transmission unit. The bracelet vibrates to remind the user to take the pills in one of the compartments in the pill box.
Access node and method
An all-encompassing fully integrated communication Access Node for call stations and other security and communications equipment includes a modular housing within which is mounted wire and wireless communication systems and power systems. The housing has a chassis for mounting the electronics and battery modules and a backbox and panel for staged installations, managing cables and providing heat dissipation. A door to the chassis is secured using latch hooks with roller bearings. Optical cable termination is provided as a two sided patch panel. Dual power supplies provide power to internal components and to external components via a distribution module. Backup power is provided by a custom battery backup with a charging controller. Cooling is controlled by dual fans and a fan controller moving air through the housing using openings and baffles. Freestanding pedestal mounting of the Access Node and various other mounts for column, wall, or ceiling to any substrate or condition is an option. Venting through a plug prevents pressure build up.
Pace delineation jibe iota
With the aim of contributing to the optimization of commuting systems, roadways, and other motion systems, Pace Delineation jibe iota (PD) addresses the issue of crossing paths of travel. PD is the process of gathering and analyzing velocities, positions, and other parameters and properties of traversing units to determine the velocities of each such that they do not arrive at the intersections at the same time. Such coordination can help avoid the stoppage of vehicles at an intersection, and collisions obviously. The process also accommodates an overtaking condition which may be used to prioritize emergency responders or other traversals.

Medical dressing having a timer
A medical dressing is disclosed herein. The medical dressing, in an embodiment, includes a body and a see-through surface supported by the body. The medical dressing also includes a timer coupled to the body. The timer includes a structure configured to track the passage of time based on liquid diffusion or otherwise without relying on a battery or electrical power source.
Non-contact voltage detector
A non-contact voltage detector for detecting and indicating voltage. The non-contact voltage detector includes a housing having a voltage detection probe and plurality of light sources. The housing further includes an integral power source that is rechargeable via an external power source coupled to a user input port. The power source provides electrical energy to the non-contact voltage detector that further includes a controller and control circuit that is operably connected to at least one light source. The controller and control circuit can detect electrical energy at the user input port, detect the charge state of the integral power source, charge the integral power source, and emit one or more charge state light indicators when the state of the integral power source changes. In addition, the light sources can indicate the presence of voltage at the probe and can be independently activated by one or more switches.
Secured package holder device
A monitoring system is configured to monitor a property. The monitoring system includes a package holder device that is configured to receive a package at the package holder device. The package holder device is configured to secure the package. The package holder device is configured to arm the package holder device. The monitoring system includes a monitoring control unit that is configured to receive, from the package holder device, data indicating that the package holder device secured the package and that the package holder device armed. The monitoring control unit is configured to communicate, to a user device of a resident of the property, a package delivery confirmation notification indicating that the package holder device received and secured the package.
Method and apparatus for automatically setting alarms and notifications
A processor-based personal electronic device (such as a smartphone) is programmed to automatically respond to data sent by various sensors from which the user's activity may be inferred. One or more alarms on the device may be temporarily disabled when sensor data indicates that the user is asleep. One or more of the sensors may be worn by the user and remote from the device. A wireless communication link may be used by the device to obtain remote sensor data. Data from on-board sensors in the devicesuch as motion sensors, location sensors, ambient light sensors, and the likemay also be used to deduce the user's current activity. User data (such as calendar entries) may also be used to determine likely user activity and set alarms accordingly. Biometric data from a second, nearby person may also be used to automatically select certain alarm modes on a first person's device.
