Wireless devices and systems for tracking patients and methods for using the like
Disclosed are apparatuses, systems, and methods for tracking patients that suffer from dementia. The disclosed apparatus is a wearable device capable of micro-tracking through Bluetooth Low Energy technology and capable of macro-tracking through GPS technology. The device may additionally include sensors to monitor other information such as the health of the patient or the patient's surrounding environment. The disclosed systems utilize the disclosed device in an overall system for tracking patients. These systems teach how the device interacts with the other components of the system (e.g., signal beacons, wireless transmitters, a central processing unit, mobile computing devices) to provide an integrated system to tracking the location and monitoring the well being of the patient. Finally, methods for tracking patients that use the disclosed devices and systems are disclosed.
MULTICONFIGURABLE GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM RECEIVER AND HANDHELD RECEPTACLE
A system having a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver having a GNSS receiver battery receptacle for housing a battery therein, and a handheld receptacle which has an insertion portion which is shaped as an outer portion of the battery and which is adapted for insertion into the battery receptacle of the GNSS receiver instead of the battery, wherein the handheld receptacle has a handheld receptacle battery receptacle to receive the battery therein. The battery can be swapped from the GNSS receiver and the handheld receptacle. A socket can be provided on the handheld receptacle for mounting a computing device thereon in communication with the GNSS receiver. A pole-mount adapter can be used for connecting the GNSS receiver onto a pole below the GNSS battery receptacle and can be mounted and dismounted even when the handheld receptacle is inserted in the GNSS receiver.
WIRELESS TRACKING OF POWER TOOLS AND RELATED DEVICES
A method and system for wirelessly tracking power tools and related devices to aid with inventory management and to help minimize, prevent, and recover misplaced or stolen tools throughout the job site. The tools and/or batteries include wireless transmitting capabilities (e.g., an ISM unit) to transmit data to a fob, puck repeater, and/or gateway over an ISM network. The gateway is operable to translate and output the ISM communications over a cellular network to a remote monitoring unit, such as a personal computer or smart phone. Additionally, the gateway is further operable to translate and output cellular communications from the remote monitoring unit to ISM communications over the ISM network. A wireless tethering system and method is also disclosed whereby an ISM battery places a power tool in a lock-out or limp mode after the ISM battery remains outside of ISM communications for a prolonged period of time.
Location history access for lost tracking device
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a tracking server, a first tracking signal associated with a tracking device from a computing device. The first tracking signal is associated with a first location. The method includes receiving a second tracking signal associated with the tracking device from a computing device. The second tracking signal is associated with a second location. The method includes determining, based at least in part on the first tracking signal and the second tracking signal that a tracking device status associated with the tracking device has changed. The method includes providing, to a computing device, at least the first location and the second location, wherein the computing device is configured to display at least the first location and the second location via an interactive interface configured to enable a user to trace locations associated with the tracking device.

Electronic device, control method, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium
An electronic device, a control method, and a non-transitory computer-readable recording medium are disclosed. In one embodiment, an electronic device comprises a position detector, a communication unit, and at least one processor. The position detector is configured to detect position information of the electronic device based on a signal output by a satellite. The communication unit is configured to communicate with another device. When the at least one processor determines that detection accuracy of the position detector has deteriorated when a detecting function of the position detector is valid, the at least one processor reduces communication with the another device.
