The present invention is related to monitoring movement, and in particular to systems and methods for securing a monitoring device to a monitor target.

A system that provides an alarm or alert system for those that cannot communicate, or to notify another party when in a situation that needs immediate attention. It consists of a caregiver band, and at least one dependent band. The dependent bands have an infant size as well. The caregiver band has a transceiver that communicates with the dependent bands. The dependent band has a transceiver as well. The infant band has only a receiver. The caregiver and dependent bands each have a debossed button that when depressed sends a signal to the dependent band(s). This signal has a loud alarm, a flashing LED light and a vibration. To turn off the alarm, the caregiver can press the debossed button a second time, or, as sensor in the bands will shut off the alarm when the bands touch. In one model, an app for use with smartphones is also available.

A wearable electronic device, a system and methods of monitoring with a wearable electronic device. The device includes a hybrid wireless communication module with wireless communication sub-modules to selectively acquire location data from both indoor and outdoor sources, as well as a wireless communication sub-module to selectively transmit an LPWAN signal to provide location information based on the acquired data. The device may also include one or more sensors to collect one or more of environmental data, activity data and physiological data. The device may transmit some or all of its acquired data to a larger system, including a cloud-based server to, in addition to providing location-based data, be used as a part of a predictive health care protocol to correlate changes in acquired data to salient indicators of the health of a wearer of the device. In one form, the predictive health care protocol uses a machine learning model.

An electronic patient monitoring system and method of operation that includes one or more generally non-metal, tamper-resistant patient identification and monitoring devices, an observer transmitter/receiver device configured to receive and detect one or more beacon signals that exceed a predetermined threshold from at least one of the not easily removable patient identification and monitoring devices, set a time to hold open a window for a response on the transmitter/receiver device, and send a request for information to the observer with the transmitter/receiver device, and a central computer system. Each of the transmitter/receiver device and the central computer system, including, at least, a computer processor, communications components and system software to communicate with the observer transmitter/receiver device at specified/predetermined time intervals to receive observer- and patient-specific information.

A system for sending medical emergency alerts includes a user device that includes a wireless communications module, a user interface, a processor in communication with the wireless communications module and the user interface, and a memory in communication with the processor. The wireless communications module includes a database storing an emergency contact. The processor is configured to: display a medication reminder on the user interface including a medication name; wherein, when the user interface has not detected a predefined action after a period of time, communicate a medicine alert to a caregiver mobile device, and; upon receipt of input from the caregiver mobile device, send the medicine alert to the emergency contact only after a caregiver has chosen to have the medicine alert sent to the emergency contact.

Systems and methods for registering a location tracking device affixed to an item or other merchandise with a cellular or mobile network provider associated with the purchaser are described herein. In some cases, user equipment in physical proximity to the location tracking device may establish a connection with the location tracking device to facilitate the registration process between the network provider and the location tracking device. Once the registration is complete, the location tracking device may establish a direct connection with the cellular or mobile network of the network provider such that the network provider is able to monitor the location of the location tracking device.

A swimmer safety monitor apparatus for allowing adults to monitor swimming children's safety to prevent drowning includes a transmitter body and a strap coupled to the transmitter body to secure the apparatus on a user's wrist. A transmitter display is coupled to a body front side of the transmitter body. A CPU is coupled within the transmitter body and is in operational communication with the transmitter display. A battery, a biometric sensor, a power button, a panic button, and a transceiver are coupled to the transmitter body and are in operational communication with the CPU to communicate with a personal electronic device to send vitals from the biometric sensor and alerts from the panic button.

A baby monitor system comprises: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: obtain a sleep schedule of a baby; obtain vitals of the baby, wherein the vitals are based on pulse oximetry, Doppler monitoring, or temperature sensing; and cause a first sound or a first light to emit in response to the sleep schedule and the vitals. A method comprises: obtaining a sleep schedule of a baby; obtaining vitals of the baby, wherein the vitals are based on pulse oximetry; and causing a first sound or a first light to emit in response to the sleep schedule and the vitals.
