Intelligent infant sleep position monitor to avoid SIDS
11138856 · 2021-10-05 ·

The invention relates to a system and method for detecting high risk sleeping position of an infant relating to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). The invention utilizes a deep learning model for detecting sleeping position of the infant, alerting the caregiver and further refining the deep leaning model based on the caregiver's feedback for future infant sleeping positions. The system retrains the deep learning model based on the captured feedback from the caregiver to reduce false negatives and permit false positives. The invention thereby proposes a new non-intrusive but failsafe mechanism to monitor the babies in the crib and uses commonly available hardware to achieve the same. The system can leverage multiple channels of communication to ensure that latency in any channel do not defeat the purpose of the system.

ACTIVE RFID TAG AND PRODUCT SURVEILLANCE METHOD

Active radio-frequency identification, RFID, tag, and a product surveillance method using active RFID tags. The method includes: transmitting (202), by an active RFID tag, continuously a signal comprising an own identifier according to a predetermined schedule; receiving (204), by the active RFID tag, continuously a plurality of signals comprising a plurality of foreign identifiers transmitted by a plurality of other active RFID tags according to the predetermined schedule; measuring (206), by the active RFID tag, a received signal strength indication, RSSI, of each received signal; storing (208), by the active RFID tag, each foreign identifier of a signal whose RSSI exceeds a predetermined strength threshold; detecting (210), by the active RFID tag, that a signal with a stored foreign identifier is no more received according to the predetermined schedule and marking (212), by the active RFID tag, said stored foreign identifier.

PRIVATE WIRELESS NETWORK COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS, METHODS AND DEVICES

An embodiment of a minder device includes a selector and a transceiver. The selector is configurable in one of multiple configurations each corresponding to a respective one of multiple responses. And the transceiver is configured to receive, from a host server via a cellular network, a message from a monitor device associated with the minder device, and to send, to the monitor device via a cellular network and the host server, the one of the responses corresponding to the one of the configurations in which the selector is configured. For example, such a device can be a less-expensive alternative to, and can allow more monitor control, than a smart phone. Furthermore, such a device can be suitable for tracking and locating children too young to have a smart phone, for tracking and locating pets, and for tracking and locating objects.

Family management during muster

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for family management during muster on a vessel. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for family management during muster includes associating a mobile device of a child on the vessel with a mobile device of a parent of the child also on the vessel and assigning a muster station on the vessel to the parent and a muster station to the child. For instance, the muster station assigned to the child may be different than that of the parent. Thereafter, during a muster event, a location of the mobile device of the child on the vessel is determined relative to the muster station assigned to the child and a message may be transmitted to the mobile device of the parent indicating the determined location.

METHOD, SYSTEM, AND DEVICE FOR PROTECTING VEHICLE OCCUPANTS

A system, method, and device for protecting a vehicle occupant over a computerized network. There is an electronic seat pad with an occupant sensor, a driver sensor control module that detects proximity a driver's portable electronic computing device relative to the vehicle; and a key-location sensor that detects proximity of a vehicle key to the vehicle. There is a system management module that determines alert statuses and sends alert and safety notifications to a remote notification device, which automatically registers an alert if a threshold level of safety notifications are not received. There may be pressure, temperature, signal strength, CO2, IR, and other sensors. There is a state library that may be updated to identify additional dangerous states based on sensor readings.

Dynamic routing during muster

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for dynamic routing during muster. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for dynamic routing during distributed muster includes assigning a muster station to a passenger on a vessel and thereafter, locating the passenger at a location on the vessel during a muster event. Once the passenger has been located on the vessel, a path is computed between the location and the muster station and turn by turn instructions assembled for the computed path. Finally, the turn by turn instructions are transmitted to a mobile computing device of the passenger, such as a smart phone or smart watch, for display in the mobile computing device of the passenger during the muster event.

Management of guardianship of an entity including via elastic boundaries

In embodiments, one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprise a set of instructions, which, when executed on a processor of a server, causes the server to receive sensor data from at least one sensor proximate to an entity, the entity is a human under care of at least one temporary guardian (TG) pursuant to a set of guardianship rules, the guardianship rules including a pre-defined geographic boundary in which the entity is to remain while under the care of the at least one TG. When executed, the instructions further cause the server to extract location metadata of the entity from the sensor data, and based at least in part on the metadata, send notifications to the TG and to a primary guardian (PG) of the entity when the entity is outside of the pre-defined boundary.

Offender monitoring system

An offender monitoring system has an electronic tag and a monitoring unit. The electronic tag has a tether to secure the electronic tag to an offender and a communication device to communicate with the monitoring unit. The monitoring unit has a communication device to communicate with the electronic tag. The system has a processor which analyses a communication between the electronic tag and the monitoring unit to determine a communication property, such as latency, variability of latency over a plurality of communications and signal strength. The processor determines, based on the measured communication property differing from a historical value, whether the communication between the electronic tag and the monitoring unit has been relayed via an intermediary device in an attempt by the offender to trick the monitoring unit.

CAR SEAT SYSTEM FOR REDUCTON OF FALSE ALARMS, REDUCTION OF POWER DISSIPATION AND ITS RELEVANT OPERATION

Disclosed is a car seat system for reducing false alarm occurrences and a method for operating the car seat system. A car seat system according to one embodiment of the inventive concept includes a sensor unit including a plurality of sensors including a pressure sensor, and sensing an object on a car seat, a sensor controller that controls a main controller to enter a wake-up mode from a sleep mode when pressure information sensed about the object is received from the pressure sensor, the main controller that, upon entering the wake-up mode by the sensor controller, determines the object based on information sensed by each of the plurality of sensors and received via the sensor controller, and provides a beacon signal about the object based on the determination, and a transmitting unit that broadcasts the beacon signal from the main controller.
