A monitoring and signaling system is provided that may include at least one safety device for a vehicle which can be coupled to a seat for infants or to an item for the boot for pets or to a pet collar, configured to generate an output signal indicative of the presence of an infant or a pet on the seat or in the boot or of the fact that the pet wears the collar. The system may further include a first signaling device configured to emit first signals in sequence when the output signal indicates the presence of the infant or of the pet in the vehicle; and a second signaling device configured to emit second signals in sequence when coupled to the vehicle. The system may further include a mobile device configured to: receive pairs of signals each formed by a first and a second signal, make determinations based thereon, and generate, based on the detection, different monitoring signals.

The system may further include a mobile device configured to: receive pairs of signals each formed by a first and a second signal; determine, for each pair, a first and a second distance; compare the values of the first and the second distance with a first and a second reference distance, respectively; detect, for each received pair of signals, whether the system alternately operates in a proximity condition, a distance condition, a first intermediate condition or a second intermediate condition; generate, in the event of the detection means detecting the distance condition, different monitoring signals, depending on the fact that the distance condition has been detected after the detection of the first or the second intermediate condition.

Devices, systems, and methods for an alarming system for multi-unit buildings are described herein. One system includes a number of remote sensors positioned in a building having common areas and individual units occupied by occupants, the remote sensors are provided for sensing an alarm condition, a central control panel located in the common areas of the building for collecting data from the remote sensors, the control panel utilized for analyzing the collected data, determining whether to initiate an alarm, and sending one or more signals to initiate an alarm, if an alarm is to be initiated, and an occupant input device located in at least one individual unit for requesting a delay in initiating the alarm.

A system for determining the occurrence of an event and for issuing notifications responsive the occurrence of the event. The system has a first component for storing reference parameters for use in determining occurrence of the event and a sensor for determining real-time parameters that may be indicative of the occurrence of the event. An analysis component analyzes the real-time parameters relative to the reference parameters. If the event is detected a communications component issues a notification to those effected by the event.

Implementations of a child safety system is provided. Implementations of a child safety system comprises portable transmitter configured to transmits a wireless signal compatible with Bluetooth technology and a portable computing device configured to receive the wireless signal and compute a distance between the portable computing device and the transmitter based on the signal strength of the wireless signal received. The portable computing device further is configured to sound an alarm on the portable computing device once the distance between the portable computing device and the portable transmitter equals or exceeds a preset distance.

A vehicle-mountable child protective device including a housing which is mountable onto a door of a vehicle and including a first housing portion, which is at least partially located within the vehicle when the device is mounted onto the vehicle and during device operation, and a second housing portion, which is at least partially located outside the vehicle when the device is mounted onto the vehicle and during device operation, a flag which is rotatably mounted via a flagpole onto the first housing portion and a flag positioning assembly at least partially within the first housing portion for automatically rotating the flag to a raised position outside of and above the vehicle upon opening of the door of the vehicle.

An anti-theft proximity alert system that includes a wearable smart charm with a charm housing, and an object monitor with a housing and a snooze switch, and a controller with at least one snooze operating instruction to adjust a threshold alert criterion based upon a setting of the snooze switch.

A system and method for activating security mechanisms based at least in part on accelerometer-based dead reckoning wherein accelerometer data, reflecting acceleration in a local coordinate system of a device, is obtained from an accelerometer of a device. Movement of the device is determined based at least in part on the accelerometer data, and, based at least in part on whether the movement of the device exceeds a threshold value, a determination is made whether to change a current security state of the device. If it is determined to change the current security state of the device, the current security state of the device is changed to a new security state.
