A system and method for data collection and aggregation using a distributed network of communications enabled sensors connected to another primary network to achieve a secondary out-of-band monitoring perspective, for example, in power grids. The data collection system includes an aggregation and processing server configured to collect data from a variety of sensors adjacent to the monitored network each sensor includes secondary power such that it can continue data transmission even during power grid outages. The data collection system includes a method for secure real-time data ingest, machine learning enabled analysis, risk assessment, and anomaly detection on a broad geographic scale irrespective of isolated network boundaries.

A bicycle seatpost system comprises an electric actuator, a remote controller, and a seatpost controller. The seatpost controller is configured to control the electric actuator to change a state of the bicycle seatpost assembly to an adjustable state based on one of a first control signal and a second control signal. The remote controller includes a first operating part configured to receive a first user input and a second operating part configured to receive a second user input. The remote controller is configured to generate the first control signal having a constant signal length regardless of an operation period of the first user input. The remote controller is configured to generate the second control signal having a signal length corresponding to the operation period of the second user input.

Systems, methods, and circuitries are provided to perform full duplex communication using edge timing in a common signal. In one example, a method for a slave device includes receiving a common signal resulting from combination of a slave signal transmitted by the slave device on a signal line and a master signal transmitted by the master device on the signal line. The common signal includes a series of signal periods having a first edge and a second edge. The method includes, in a period of the common signal: determining slave information to be communicated; selecting a second edge timing corresponding to the slave information; detecting the first edge in the common signal; transmitting a slave signal having a first slave edge at the second edge timing after the first edge; and determining master information based on a detected level of the common signal at a check point of the signal period.

A bicycle seatpost system comprises an electric actuator, a remote controller, and a seatpost controller. The electric actuator is to change a state of a bicycle seatpost assembly between a lock state where a total length of the bicycle seatpost assembly is invariable, and an adjustable state where the total length of the bicycle seatpost assembly is variable. The remote controller is configured to transmit a first control signal and a second control signal different from the first control signal. The seatpost controller is configured to control the electric actuator to change the state of the bicycle seatpost assembly to the adjustable state based on one of the first control signal and the second control signal.

A computer-implemented method for generating an automated response to a catastrophic event, that includes (1) analyzing a sample set of data generated in association with a catastrophic event to determine a threshold pattern; (2) receiving, with customer permission or affirmative consent, home sensor data from a smart home controller via wireless communication or data transmission, the home sensor data including data regarding at least one of (i) structural status; (ii) wind speed; (iii) availability of electricity; (iv) presence of water; (v) temperature; (vi) pressure; and/or (vii) presence of pollutants in the air and/or water; (3) determining, based upon or from computer analysis of the home sensor data, whether the home sensor data indicates a match to the threshold pattern; and (4) automatically generating a response if the home sensor data indicates a match to the threshold pattern. As a result, catastrophic events and responses thereto may be improved through usage of a remote network of home sensors.

An intravenous drip real-time monitoring system is disclosed herein. The system includes a weight sensor, a processor and a cloud server. The weight sensor is configured to detect weight values. The processor is electrically connected to the weight sensor, is configured to calculate the weight values and when the weight values is not larger than a drip threshold, sending an alert information. The cloud server is communication connected to the processor, is configured to receive the weight values via the processor, and compare the weight values and drip setting information to calculate drip remaining time.

This invention relates to apparatus and systems for providing home and building security and condition monitoring. More particularly, the invention relates to a plurality of devices, including intelligent, multi-sensing, network-connected devices, that communicate dynamically with each other and a remote server.

Footwear systems include an article of footwear and a data transmission system engaged with the article of footwear. The transmission system transmits data to a remote system, such as a display system, another data transmission system, a processing system, etc. Such footwear systems further may include activation systems for activating the transmission and/or display systems. The transmitted data may be used for various purposes, such as: (a) identifying a user of the article of footwear; (b) activating targeted advertising or product information; (c) confirming the user's presence at a specific location and/or at a specific time; (d) determining start, finish, and/or intermediate split times for specific user; (e) confirming athletic equipment usage; (f) providing data for a game or reward program; (g) registering the user for an event or competition; or the like.
