A first device uses a first runtime environment executing on the first device to transfer a code module to a second runtime environment executing on a second device. The code module is configured to execute within the second runtime environment and expose a function of the second device that is supported by the second runtime environment to the first device. The first device executes an application within the first runtime environment. The application remotely invokes the function of the second device via the transferred code module and the second runtime environment.

Novel modular smart management devices in the form of drop safes include the modular components of a chassis, door and technology cabinet. The drop safes enable retailers to make cash deposits quickly and safely within or near their own facilities. Various technology, including RFID readers, RFID tags, and other equipment allow the drop safes to identify each deposited bag. Employees utilize specialized apps on their mobile devices to facilitate deposit creation and other tasks. Novel methodologies for accessing the drop safes for emptying employ single-use, time-expiration type authorization codes along with other security measures to minimize risk and to provide other benefits. Novel structures along with methodologies for replacing, on-site, modular components with auto-detection of functionality during initialization and re-initialization enables for efficient replacement and upgrading of components, including the upgrading of safes to provide additional functionality.

In some examples, a control system for a vehicle can detect a set of ultrasonic signals generated by a mobile computing device of a user. Additionally, the control system can determine a pin code from the set of ultrasonic signals. Moreover, the control system can perform one or more vehicle operations to initiate fulfillment of a transport request that is associated with the determined pin code, upon the user being determined to be within a given proximity distance of the vehicle.

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for controlling a smart device. The method may include obtaining correlating information of the smart device. The correlating information may include at least one of smart device information or a communication status of the smart device. The method may include determining indication information of the smart device by processing the correlating information of the smart device according to a preset algorithm. The method may include performing designated operations related to the smart device based at least in part on the indication information.

A system and method providing a smart, Internet-connected mailbox is disclosed. The system having a smart mailbox device, a web server, and a mobile device configured to communicatively interconnect over the Internet. The smart mailbox device includes a mailbox enclosure having a lockable mail and package lockbox electrically coupled to a mailbox processor device, a keypad device electrically coupled to the mailbox processor device, a video camera electrically coupled to the mailbox processor device, a display device electrically coupled to the mailbox processor device, a wireless data network transceiver for configured to communicatively interconnect the mailbox device to the Internet, a mailbox processor device for controlling the smart mailbox device, The mailbox processor device has: a memory having instructions stored thereon and a processor configured to execute the instructions on the memory to cause the mailbox processor device to authenticate deliveries and notify users.

A mobile electronic device receives a data signal with a lock identifier and a lock state designator when it is in radio range of the electronic lock. The mobile device generates a server message which comprises the lock identifier, the lock state designator and a device identifier. The mobile electronic device sends the server message to the data processing device which stores a state of the electronic lock based on an evaluation of the lock state designator. The data processing device generates a confirmation message which contains an electronic code to activate the electronic lock when the electronic lock is in an inactive state and the device identifier in the user file is assigned to the lock identifier and which contains a user message when the electronic lock is in the active state or the user has no access authorization to the access-restricted zone assigned to the electronic lock.

A method for opening and/or using at least one vehicle may include receiving, by a mobile terminal, an identifier assigned to a target vehicle. The identifier may be transmitted to a server, and a key data set may be received from the server. The key data set and/or a code based on the key data set may be transmitted as a remote code to the target vehicle. The target vehicle may generate at least one local code after receiving the remote code, and may compare the remote code to the local code(s). The target vehicle may be opened and/or released, or a vehicle command may be executed if at least one of the local codes corresponds to the remote code.
