A method for configuring a sensor tag may include providing a flexible substrate layer comprising a thin film of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU); depositing a sensor inlay on the flexible substrate layer; and applying a protective coating over the sensor inlay encapsulating the sensor inlay between the flexible substrate layer and the protective coating.

The present invention relates to a wearable device and a system. The wearable device (20, 40) comprises an electronic circuit (21), a power supply (22), a switching circuit (23, 43) coupled between the electronic circuit and the power supply, and an electromagnetic field detection circuit (24) coupled to the switching circuit (23, 43) for detecting an electromagnetic field generated by an NFC transmitter within the detection range of the electromagnetic field detection circuit and for generating a trigger signal if an electromagnetic field generated by an NFC transmitter is detected within the detection range of the electromagnetic field detection circuit. The switching circuit (23, 43) comprises a flip-flop (231) or a transistor circuit (431) including an input transistor (432) and a fuse (433) to switch the connection between the electronic circuit and the power supply on in response to the trigger signal.

Disclosed is a system for managing trust. The system comprises at least one wearable device, at least one terminal device and a server arrangement. The server arrangement is configured to determine occurrence of a first type of event between a wearable device and another wearable device or a second type of event between the wearable device and a terminal device; receive a device ID and a class of each of the at least one wearable device and the at least one terminal device; receive a rating and process the rating to generate updated activity information for each of the wearable device, and the other wearable device or the terminal device; update a profile corresponding to each of the at least one wearable device or the at least one terminal device with the updated activity information and allocate an incentive for the profile based on the updated activity information.

A livestock management system for detecting, tracking, and responding to livestock location and physical parameters, and for determining livestock behavior and physical conditions correlated thereto. The system generally includes a plurality of tags and sensors attached to and implanted in a plurality of livestock, one or more local sensors, a management platform, and a remote computer system. Each tag receives, processes and maintains data regarding the location, activity and physical parameters of a livestock to which it is attached and locally determines the behavior and physical conditions of the livestock. The tags communicate with other nearby tags and sensors locally via dynamic mesh networks and with the management platform and remote computer system via longer range wireless networks. The management platform processes the tag data and produces herd-related data. The remote computer uses the tag data to generate and update livestock behavior and condition models for download to the tags.

Based on an image from a stationary sensor, a marker displayed on one or more digital displays on a vehicle is detected. A first location and a first orientation of the marker in a coordinate system is determined by analyzing on pixels in the image. Based on a stationary sensor location and orientation from a map, a second location and a second orientation of the vehicle in the coordinate system is determined.

A system and method for a clay target throwing system that eliminates physical buttons and voice controls to trigger the throwing devices whereby the system receives various inputs from one or more guests at a shooting range or another type of user whereby the inputs are used to dynamically manage the various target throwing devices. The method is initiated by a guest renting a wearable device with a UHF RFID tag where the guest wearing the wearable device would then walk within a predetermined distance of a computing system having a UHF RFID reader that detects the location of the UHF RFID tag in relation to the computing system.

Embodiments described herein relate to an anti-theft device for commodities, and aims to provide a smart anti-theft tag for boots. The tag can effectively prevent boots from being stolen and is reliable in performance, exquisite in structure and easy to use. According to the technical solution, the smart anti-theft tag for boots comprises a tag holder provided with a circuit board, a sounder component, a coil and a battery, and a hoop assembly movably mounted on the tag holder to be tied on and connected to a heel of a boot, a bolt assembly movably located in the tag holder and used for unidirectional control of the movement of the hoop assembly, and a lock assembly movably located in the tag holder and used to lock the bolt assembly in a moving state.

A method of transmitting a first tier of information by a radio frequency identity (RFID) chip when hailed in a first frequency band and transmitting a second tier of information by the RFID chip when hailed in a second frequency band. The method comprises receiving a first hailing radio signal in a first frequency band by an application executing on a processor of an RFID chip, in response to receiving the first radio signal, transmitting a first tier of information stored in the RFID chip in the first frequency band by the application, receiving a second hailing radio signal in a second frequency band by the application, and, in response to receiving the second radio signal, transmitting a second tier of information stored in the RFID chip in the second frequency band by the application.

Apparatus and methods for tracking or otherwise accounting for chattel (e.g., personal property such as keys, pocket knives, and the like) at a point of departure such as an airport, bus station, train station, etc., or areas where people congregate (e.g., sporting events, concerts, etc.). In one exemplary embodiment, the apparatus comprises a kiosk adapted for use near a security checkpoint, wherein passengers or patrons can efficiently deposit their items for shipment to their home, travel destination, or third party.

A system for processing electronic information includes a decorative assembly that includes (i) a cap piece having a stud, includes an embedded NFC chip, ornaments around its periphery, and a scannable code located at a center of the cap piece, and (ii) a socket base with a female socket in its center configured to receive the stud and located in an upper section of the socket base, where a bottom section of the socket base includes a PIN that is covered by an opaque peel off sticker. The system also includes a wearable element that is affixed to the decorative assembly, a backend system for processing activation of the decorative assembly or for processing payments by a user of the decorative assembly; and an interface between the decorative assembly and the backend system.
