Locating devices
A method for determining the location of mobile devices, comprising providing at least one mobile device and at least two access points distributed over two or more locations; noting the identity of access points the device is connected to over time; noting transitions between access points a device is connected to and identifying two or more access points as belonging to the same location if the mobile device transitions between connecting to said access points within a certain time period; allocating a first location to a group of access points to which a device transitions within said certain period of time and a second or further location to access points to which a device does not transition to from the first set of access points within said certain period of time; thereby associating groups of one or more access points with one or more locations, and determining the location of the device when it is subsequently connected to one of the located access points.
NETWORK SETUP FOR DIGITAL PICTURE FRAMES
A picture frame and methods of setup, gifting, and/or use. Network connection allows digital frames to be set up remotely by a first user for a second user. The first user can upload photos from electronic devices or from photo collections of community members before the second user receives the frame device. The frame is thus ready for display upon powering on by the second user. An integrated camera is used to automatically determine an identity of a frame viewer and can capture gesture-based feedback. The displayed photos are automatically shown and/or changed according to the detected viewers. The photos can be filtered and cropped at the receiver side. Clustering photos by content is used to improve display and to respond to photo viewer desires.
ENHANCING LOCATION ACCURACY IN DENSE URBAN ENVIRONMENT
Systems and methods for determining a location of a mobile computing device requesting emergency services are provided. A mobile computing device may receive an indication of a request for emergency services from a user of the mobile computing device. The mobile computing device may receive a first wireless signal from a first device. The wireless signal may include an indication of a first geographic position associated with the first device. The mobile computing device may determine a location associated with the mobile computing device based on the indication of the first geographic position associated with the first device, and may send the determined location to a provider of emergency services.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRACKING A DEVICE
A method for tracking a device not actively sending patient data to a network of medical devices is disclosed. The method comprises the device giving a signal at a time interval; an active hub listening to the device at the time interval; the active hub storing information about the device; and the active hub continuing to listen at the time interval to the device until the device actively sends patient data, or until no more signals are heard from the device. A system for tracking a device of a network of medical devices is also disclosed. The network comprises a hub and at least one device. The at least one device is configured to give a signal to the hub at a time interval, if the at least one device does not actively send patient data. The hub is configured to listen at the time interval to any devices not actively sending patient data. The hub is configured to store information about any devices not actively sending patient data. The hub is configured to continue listening to any devices not actively sending patient data until all devices actively send patient data, or until no more signals are heard from any devices not actively sending patient data.
Externally attachable tracking module for a power tool
A power tool tracking clip includes a wireless beacon transmitter having a memory that stores an identifier and a transmitter configured to wirelessly transmit the identifier. A clip body member has a beacon receptacle, and the wireless beacon transmitter is positioned within the beacon receptacle. A first arm member is coupled to a first end of the clip body and has a first inner surface configured to engage a power tool. A second arm member is coupled to a second end of the clip body and has a second inner surface configured to engage the power tool. A mounting feature on the first arm member aligns with a corresponding mounting feature on a corresponding outer wall of the power tool when the power tool tracking clip is mated to the power tool.
Multimodal Transmission of Packetized Data
A system of multi-modal transmission of packetized data in a voice activated data packet based computer network environment is provided. A natural language processor component can parse an input audio signal to identify a request and a trigger keyword. Based on the input audio signal, a direct action application programming interface can generate a first action data structure, and a content selector component can select a content item. An interface management component can identify first and second candidate interfaces, and respective resource utilization values. The interface management component can select, based on the resource utilization values, the first candidate interface to present the content item. The interface management component can provide the first action data structure to the client computing device for rendering as audio output, and can transmit the content item converted for a first modality to deliver the content item for rendering from the selected interface.
Apparatus, system and method of simultaneous connectivity to location origin transceivers
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of simultaneous connectivity to location origin transceivers. For example, a transceiver may be configured to simultaneously maintain a plurality of simultaneous Media-Access-Control (MAC) layer connections with a plurality of location origin beacon transceivers (LOBTs), and to communicate wireless communication signals with the plurality of LOBTs via the plurality of simultaneous MAC-layer connections.
Systems, methods, apparatuses, and devices for identifying and tracking unmanned aerial vehicles via a plurality of sensors
Systems, methods, and apparatus for identifying and tracking UAVs including a plurality of sensors operatively connected over a network to a configuration of software and/or hardware. Generally, the plurality of sensors monitors a particular environment and transmits the sensor data to the configuration of software and/or hardware. The data from each individual sensor can be directed towards a process configured to best determine if a UAV is present or approaching the monitored environment. The system generally allows for a detected UAV to be tracked, which may allow for the system or a user of the system to predict how the UAV will continue to behave over time. The sensor information as well as the results generated from the systems and methods may be stored in one or more databases in order to improve the continued identifying and tracking of UAVs.
System and Method for Camera and Beacon Integration
A method and system are disclosed that provide integrated detection of spatially distributed events and monitoring of spatially distributed areas. Wireless beacon detection and event reporting by a mobile device are used to provide a management server with location information about events that may require video surveillance. The management server determines if any cameras are appropriate to monitor that location, and directs a camera management server to initiate video surveillance.
Method and location-determining device for correcting positioning location
A method for correcting a positioning location is provided. The method includes: receiving current positioning information; comparing a current Mobile Country Code (MCC) comprised in the current positioning information with a previous MCC comprised in previous positioning information; determining whether a moving speed of a mobile device is greater than a speed threshold according the current positioning information and the previous positioning information when the current MCC is the same as the previous MCC; determining whether the mobile device has moved after determining that the moving speed is not greater than the speed threshold; and identifying a final positioning location according to a determination result indicating whether the mobile device has moved.
