A safe box specially designed for shipping, through a regular courier, high value or collectible items with a wide range of sensors, including GPS, a light sensor, temperature sensor, microphone, camera, motion sensor, speaker, hygrometer, monitored locking system, network module, battery module, and anti-theft mechanisms to detect and prevent theft or unauthorized access. The battery module provides power to the network module and the sensors. The sensors providing location information and data to the network module, the network module transmits a shipping status message to an external device.

A device and method for securely delivering a package are provided. The device may be a container for receiving packages, and may include a body configured to receive a package, a door coupled to the body and having a locking mechanism configured to prevent the door from opening when engaged, a controller configured to receive a signal corresponding to the package, and to unlock the locking mechanism in response to the signal, and a sanitization device configured to sanitize at least one of the package and contents of the package by emitting at least one of a gas and a light configured to kill one or more of bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. The method for securely delivering a package may include storing information corresponding to the package in a memory of the container, receiving a signal indicating that the package is ready for delivery to the container, unlocking a locking mechanism of the container in response to receiving the signal, and activating a sanitization device to sanitize the package after the package has been placed inside the container.

A method (100) for depassivation of a battery (BATT) of a cash and valuables container (10) includes at least one electronically controllable component (14) and an associated control circuit (18) being supplied by the battery (BATT). The control circuit (18) executes at least one control procedure for the at least one electronically controllable component (14). The valuables container can be transportable, e.g. a cash box (10), and includes an invalidation unit, in particular an ink dyeing system (14). The control circuit (18) then also executes the depassivation (120) of the battery (BATT) each time before activating or deactivating the at least one control procedure (130) or a sub-routine thereof, such as the sub-routine for controlling and driving the ink dyeing system. Specifically, the depassivation of the battery (BATT) is performed before each first/initial execution of the least one control procedure (130).

A portable safe that includes a lower shell having a sidewall surrounding a bottom wall and defining an internal cavity and includes a cover rotatably and lockably coupled to the lower shell, wherein the cover has at least one photovoltaic cell directly coupled thereto and has a top surface defining at least one solar intake aperture exposing the at least one photovoltaic cell to an ambient environment and configured to convert solar energy to energy usable by the portable safe. The lower shell or the cover defines a cable aperture for receiving a cable that is operably configured to form a loop for surrounding a structural object. The safe has a locked position with the cable longitudinally retained by at least one of the cover and the lower shell and an article loading position with a portion of the cover removed from the lower shell and exposing the internal cavity.
