User presence-enabled tracking device functionality
A tracking system can provide configuration instructions to an electronic device based on user presence. The tracking system can determine a user's location relative to a geographic boundary surrounding a geographic area associated with the user. Depending on the user's location, the tracking system may send instructions to configure an electronic device to send a notification or change the operating mode of the electronic device in response to the user's presence. The electronic device may be a scanning device that is configured to have a higher or lower scanning frequency, depending on the presence or absence of the user relative to the scanning device.
THEFT PREVENTION SYSTEM OF ELECTRIC BICYCLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
An electric bicycle theft prevention system for preventing theft of an electric bicycle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a motor unit, a sensor unit, a controller, and an alarm unit. The motor unit is a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), and is configured to rotate wheels of the electric bicycle by receiving power from an electric storage unit. The sensor unit is configured to detect a position of a rotation shaft or a rotor of the motor unit. The controller is configured to control the motor unit and the sensor unit. The alarm unit is configured to generate an alarm by an electrical signal of the control unit. In addition, when a theft prevention function is activated in an unused state of the electric bicycle, the controller monitors a sensor value of the sensor unit to detect a movement of the electric bicycle.
An electric bicycle theft prevention control method of an electric bicycle theft prevention system for preventing theft of an electric bicycle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a theft prevention function activating operation, an electric bicycle movement detecting operation, an alarm operating and wheel locking operation, an alarm operation and wheel lock cancelling operation. In the theft prevention function activating operation, a theft prevention function of the electric bicycle is activated by a user in an unused state of the electric bicycle. In the electric bicycle movement detecting operation, a controller monitors a sensor value of a sensor unit to detect a movement of the electric bicycle after the theft prevention function is activated. In the alarm operating and wheel locking operation, when the controller determines that the electric bicycle is moving in the electric bicycle movement detecting operation, an alarm is operated and wheels of the electric bicycle are locked. In the alarm operation and wheel lock cancelling operation, the controller detects whether the sensor value of the sensor unit is greater than a predetermined set value in the alarm operating and wheel locking operation, and when it is detected that the sensor value of the sensor unit is smaller than the predetermined set value, the alarm operation and wheel lock are cancelled.

Personnel proximity detection and tracking system
Systems and methods for tracking, locating, identifying, or mapping movements of persons or personnel within a facility may include badges carried by individuals throughout the facility. These badges can each include a transmitter configured to transmit signals including signature information identifying the badges and also identifying codes of each signal transmitted. In addition, a plurality of dispensers can be positioned at selected locations of the facility and can include receivers that receive the signals transmitted by the transmitters of the badges. These receivers also can be configured to transmit information related to the received signals to one or more processors configured to identify each badge from which signals are received based upon the signature information and also to determine the proximity, range, distance, or zone between the badge identified and the receivers.

Radio Tracking System for Personal Belongings
The present invention relates generally to the field of tracking systems. More specifically, the present invention relates to a radio tracking system that is primarily comprised of at least one tracking tag, further comprised of at least one transmitter, at least one color indicator, and at least one wristband, further comprised of at least one LED and at least one motor. The tracking tag is preferably of discrete shape and size and may be fixedly or removably attached to any item that may be lost or misplaced. The wristband is comprised of a flexible or semi flexible material that features at least one fastener and receives signals that are sent from the internal transmitter of the tracing tag. LED lights illuminate to the corresponding color indicated on the tracking tag. In this manner, the system allows for efficient and quick location of lost or misplaced items.
