The present invention provides a wearable device, comprising: a power source; a position sensor electrically connected to the power source, for sensing a position of a wearer of the wearable device and generating a position signal; a signal transceiver electrically connected to the power source, for receiving the position signal, sending the position signal to a monitoring apparatus, and receiving an indication signal from the monitoring apparatus; and a body of the wearable device comprises a first part and a second part, wherein a relative position of a moveable end of the first part and a moveable end of the second part can switch between a first relative position and a second relative position.

Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and method for monitoring of physical movement in relation to regions where movement is either unconditionally or conditionally unauthorized.

A first response locator system includes a portable emergency locator device having functionality for being carried by an individual and being positioned within a housing. The locator device including a plurality of lighting elements that generate light in a plurality of different colors. The device includes a speaker for generating an audible sound. The lighting elements and speaker are controlled by an internal controller having a communication unit that receives operating instructions from a remote operation device. The housing is adapted for use with an existing mailbox or other outdoor structure and includes mounting hardware for securement thereto.

A monitoring system for monitoring a person comprising a first device configured to detect a first event in or near the building and a second device configured to detect a second event in or near the building is disclosed. The system may further comprise a memory for storing one or more rules each configured to identify an alert condition for a person in or near the building based on the first and/or second events in or near the building and a communications module configured to communicate with a remote device over a network. A controller may be configured to apply the one or more rules to the first and second detected events in the space to identify one or more alert conditions and determine what, if any, action is required, and if action is required, provide an alert to the remote device via the communications module.

A child monitor device system which collects visual and audio data at a first location [and also transmits visual and auditory signals at this first location], ideally a baby's crib, then provides access to [and displays] this data at a second location (e.g. a touchscreen monitor-&-speaker-system on the dashboard of a parent's vehicle) via specially-tailored systems and device(s) which additionally alert the parent to hazards, and wherein the monitor device system may be detached and moved to a third location (e.g. a car's back seat) so the parent can continuously monitor [and entertain] the child throughout the day. The device itself is portable via removable couplings.

In a watching server including a communication unit and a control unit, the control unit acquires log information indicating a use status of a home appliance by a watching target person and schedule information indicating a schedule of the watching target person, via the communication unit, and determines notification information to be notified to a watching man who watches the watching target person with reference to the log information and the schedule information.

Tagged receivers, tracking locator alert systems, and methods of transmitting an alert are disclosed. A tagged receiver receives a command over the network interface hardware, executes the received command, send data indicative of the status of an asset to which the tagged receiver is attached over the network interface hardware, determines an alert event has occurred, and activates an alert in response to determining that the alert event has occurred. The command includes arming the tagged receiver, disarming the tagged receiver, emitting an alert from the tagged receiver, sending data indicative of location, or a combination thereof. The alert event includes the motion sensors sensing a movement of the asset, receiving a command to emit an alert over the network interface hardware, the asset leaving a predetermined geo-fenced area, or a combination thereof.
