Sensor intended to be positioned on a mobile portion of a deployable structure, and to emit an information signal to a transmission unit intended to be positioned on a fixed portion of the deployable structure, such that the sensor comprises a wireless emitter/receiver configured to receive an incident signal originating from the transmitting unit when the deployable structure is in a folded position; a processing logic unit adapted to decide on the emission of the information signal to the transmission unit by the wireless emitter/receiver; a standalone energy source configured to power the processing logic unit.

A remote control system includes a first control device, a second control device, and a remote control device. The first control device performs an operation control on a first controlled device mounted on a moving body. The second control device performs an operation control on a second controlled device installed in a building. When one of the operation control on the first controlled device by the first control device and the operation control on the second controlled device by the second control device has been performed, the remote control device causes, by a remote control, an execution of an other of the operation control on the first controlled device by the first control device and the operation control on the second controlled device by the second control device.

Provided is an information processing apparatus having a control unit that acquires a state of another information processing apparatus and executes instruction proxy processing in a case where an instruction from a user specifies the another information processing apparatus as an instruction target and the acquired state of the another information processing apparatus.

A system for cabling infrastructure that includes at least one port, at least one shutter, at least one sensor and a gateway is provided. The port is configured to be selectively coupled to a connector. Each shutter is configured to have an open state that allows access to an associated port and a closed state that covers the port. Each sensor is configured to sense the open state and the closed state of an associated shutter and generate shutter state signals that include information relating to a current sensed state of the associated shutter and an identification of a port that is associated with the associated shutter. The gateway is in wireless communication with each sensor to receive the shutter state signals. The gateway is configured to communicate the shutter state signals that indicate a change in a state of an associated shutter to a remote location.

A meter assembly is provided including a register or an index associated with a meter; and a communication circuit decoupled from the register or the index and configured to communicate with the register or the index using an optical communication link between the register or the index and the communication circuit. Related communication circuit housings are provided.

Conventionally, Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)-based solutions have been extensively devised in the domains of indoor localization and context-aware applications. These solutions are primarily based on a path-loss attenuation model, with customizations on RSSI processing and are usually regression-based. Further, existing solutions for distance and proximity estimation incorporate data features derived only from the RSSI values themselves with additional features like frequency of occurrence of certain RSSI values thus are less accurate. Present disclosure provides systems and methods that implement a classification model that uses RSSI as well as temporal features derived from the received data packets. The model uses data from multiple devices in different environments for training and can execute proximity decisions on the device itself. The method of the present disclosure monitoring proximity between a plurality of devices implements/uses an effective protocol for decision aggregation to suppress false positive proximity events generated and further stabilizes device's response.

An electrical panel or an electrical meter may provide improved functionality by interacting with a smart plug. A smart plug may provide a smart-plug power monitoring signal that includes information about power consumption of devices connected to the smart plug. The smart-plug power monitoring signal may be used in conjunction with power monitoring signals from the electrical mains of the building for providing information about the operation of devices in the building. For example, the power monitoring signals may be used to (i) determine the main of the house that provides power to the smart plug, (ii) identify devices receiving power from the smart plug, (iii) improve the accuracy of identifying device state changes, and (iv) train mathematical models for identifying devices and device state changes.
