A wearable device receives ticket information for an event and information indicating a quantity of funds allocated from an account, associated with a user of a user device, to the wearable device, and stores the ticket information and the information indicating the quantity of funds. The wearable device utilizes a wireless component to pair the wearable device and the user device, and provides, to the user device and via the wireless component, the ticket information and information indicating access privileges for the event. The wearable device generates a token for a PoS device for a charge incurred at the event during an offline transaction with the PoS device, and provides, via a NFC component, the token to the PoS device. The wearable device provides, to the user device and via the wireless component, information indicating that that the token was provided to the PoS device.

In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises processing circuitry to: receive wireless signal data corresponding to an RFID tag, wherein the wireless signal data comprises signal strength data and signal phase data corresponding to wireless signals transmitted by the RFID tag and received by an RFID reader; generate decomposed signal strength data based on a seasonal decomposition of the signal strength data; generate a frequency-phase curve based on the signal phase data; extract a set of signal strength features based on the decomposed signal strength data; extract a set of signal phase features based on the frequency-phase curve; and detect a motion state of the RFID tag using a machine learning classifier, wherein the machine learning classifier is trained to detect the motion state based on the set of signal strength features and the set of signal phase features.

Embodiments of this application disclose an NFC-based communication method, an apparatus, and a system. In the NFC-based communication method, an electronic device works in an NFC reader/writer mode and performs an NFC communication process with an NFC tag. When failing to perform the NFC communication process, the electronic device may adjust a currently used radio frequency parameter, and re-perform the NFC communication process with the NFC tag by using an adjusted radio frequency parameter.

An IV set includes an IV component and a duration monitor device coupled to the IV component. The duration monitor device may include an indicator portion configured to change color after a determined amount of time upon activation of the indicator portion, or an RFID tag configured to be detected by an RFID reader. The duration monitor is configured to provide an indication of passage of a useful-life time period for the IV set or the IV component. Methods of operating a duration monitor device are also provided.

A goods purchase analysis assist system is provided that can not only prevent checkouts from being crowded, but also perform settlement at timing convenient for the customer. A goods purchase analysis assist system includes a management server that communicates with a terminal of a customer, and manages purchase of goods in a store by the customer, wherein gates for managing entry and exit of the customer are installed in the store, gates for exit among the gates are configured as a first exit gate through which the customer having performed shopping passes, and a second exit gate through which the customer having not performed shopping passes, and the management server manages entry and exit of the customer passing through the gate.

An autonomous robot vehicle in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure includes a conveyance system and a compartment coupled to the conveyance system. The conveyance system autonomously drives the autonomous robotic vehicle between one or more storage locations and one or more delivery locations. The compartment receives one or more items stored at the one more storage locations. The compartment includes a temperature control module configured to maintain the compartment within a predetermined temperature range to provide temperature control for the one or more items as the conveyance system drives between the one or more storage locations and the one or more delivery locations.

A method, computer system, and a computer program product for delivery is provided. The present invention may include detecting a carrier device within a vicinity of a user address associated with at least one registered beacon unit. The present invention may also include transmitting a respective tag information of the at least one registered beacon unit associated with the user address to the detected carrier device in the vicinity of the user address. The present invention may further include, in response to receiving a delivery event communication from the at least one registered beacon unit, recording a completed delivery at the user address.

A method and an apparatus for invoking a radio frequency card function are provided. The method includes: monitoring a feature input event, and obtaining feature information of a user from the feature input event obtained through monitoring; determining, based on a mapping relationship between the feature information and a radio frequency card type, a target radio frequency card type corresponding to the feature information of the user; and invoking a radio frequency card function corresponding to the target radio frequency card type. According to the method, different radio frequency card types may be distinguished based on the feature information of the user, so that the radio frequency card function corresponding to the target radio frequency card type corresponding to the feature information of the user can be invoked based on the feature information of the user. This further improves a card swiping success rate and improves user experience.

A method of redeploying waste containers in a waste collection system with an active or passive signal means requires a user to aim an optical character recognition reader at a waste container comprising a unique optical waste container identifier. The optical character recognition reader reads unique waste container optical identifier. The unique waste container optical identifier is converted to a unique electronically formatted waste container identifier. A unique radio frequency signal identifier is stored on a radio frequency emitting tag and associated with the unique electronically formatted waste container identifier. The radio frequency emitting tag is attached to the waste container.

Systems, methods, articles of manufacture, and computer-readable media. A server may receive a phone call and generate a uniform resource locator (URL) comprising a session identifier for an account. The server may transmit the URL to a client device. The server may receive, from a web browser, a request comprising the URL. The server may determine that the session identifier in the URL of the request matches the session identifier for the account, and transmit, to the web browser, a web page at the URL. The server may receive, from the web browser, a cryptogram read by the web page via a card reader of the client device and decrypt the cryptogram. The server may authenticate the identity of the caller for the call based on decrypting the cryptogram and the session identifier of the URL matching the session identifier of the account.
