Embodiments describe a remote deployable transient sensory kit comprising a shipping container having a remote deployable transient sensory system. The sensory system includes a controller, a set of batteries configured according to a flight plan optimization associated with a building energy modeling mission, and a mobile device for wireless communication with the remote deployable transient sensory system. The mobile device includes a processor, a computer-readable memory comprising an application executable via the processor for collecting energy usage data and building characteristics via the remote deployable transient sensory system, and a transceiver configured for wireless communication with the remote deployable transient sensory system.

A device and a method including a power supply module operative to extract electric power from magnetic field surrounding an electric cable, a transceiver operative to communicate in a backhaul network, a transceiver for a wireless local area network and/or a remote sensing unit, and a controller module communicatively coupled to the transceiver and/or remote sensing unit, where the device is mounted around a single electric cable of an electric transmission grid or an electric distribution grid, and where the device derives power form the single electric cable.

A remote power usage meter connects to a cable from a generator or similar device that allows remote data gathering for use within a system that provides improved functionality. The power usage meter includes a sensor board, a main unit, and a battery. It provides actionable real-time AC power data. Usage of the AC data is logged using disclosed techniques. Data packets are provided with the data as well other parameters derived from measured AC current and AC voltage.

A system for cabling infrastructure that includes at least one port, at least one shutter, at least one sensor and a gateway is provided. The port is configured to be selectively coupled to a connector. Each shutter is configured to have an open state that allows access to an associated port and a closed state that covers the port. Each sensor is configured to sense the open state and the closed state of an associated shutter and generate shutter state signals that include information relating to a current sensed state of the associated shutter and an identification of a port that is associated with the associated shutter. The gateway is in wireless communication with each sensor to receive the shutter state signals. The gateway is configured to communicate the shutter state signals that indicate a change in a state of an associated shutter to a remote location.

A leak in the membrane of a generally horizontal roof support deck includes dividing the membrane into separate zones and locating a sensor to detect moisture underneath the membrane. A movable scanning device carried by a worker has a power supply antenna for supplying power by an electromagnetic wave to the sensor and the worker moves the scanning device to selected ones of the zones. At each selected zone the power supply antenna activates the sensor in the zone and the sensor to emits signals related to the moisture underneath the membrane as detected by the sensor device which are detected and recorded at the mobile scanning device.

Described is a transformer end-of-life thermal transmitting indicator (thermal transmitting indicator) that is configured and well suited for monitoring the health of a transformer and communicating the health of the transformer to an end user by way of a cellular transceiver. The thermal transmitting indicator can be configured to alert nearby people of an impending transformer explosion if the transformer fails. The thermal transmitting indicator is also arranged to transmit any problems or impending danger from the transformer to the end user who can then respond by preemptively dealing with the failing transformer. The thermal transmitting indicator comprises liquid sensors spaced in its housing to sense if water or high humidity has infiltrated the housing.

The present disclosure provides implants, sensor modules, networks, and methods configured to establish transcutaneous power and transcutaneous bidirectional data communication using ultrasound signals between two or more medical devices located on and within a body of a patient.

A wireless transmitter for controlling a barrier operator includes at least one processor, an actuator, and a memory storing instructions. When executed by the at least one processor, the instructions cause the at least one processor to transmit a first data packet configured to initiate actuation of the barrier operator on a first channel and transmit the first data packet on a second channel. The transmission on the first channel may be performed in response to a first actuation of the actuator and the transmission on the second channel may be performed in response to a second actuation of the actuator. Alternatively, both transmissions may be performed in response to a single actuation of the actuator but switching from the first channel to the second channel may be performed in response to a passive input signal.

A power-receiving-module-type telemeter transmitter of a telemeter measuring system that is provided in a rotor and that performs communication using power received from a power transmitting antenna formed in an arc shape on a stator side, includes: a plurality of power receiving modules disposed in the rotor at intervals in a circumferential direction; an OR circuit that outputs a highest voltage among voltages input from the plurality of power receiving modules; a sensor that measures a state of a monitoring target and that outputs measurement data indicating the state; and a transmitting unit that is driven by the voltage input from the OR circuit as a power source and that transmits a radio signal including the measurement data of the sensor.

Apparatus and methods for remotely viewing and authenticating/validating the contents of a safe deposit box (or safe) are provided. The apparatus and methods may include a safe deposit box including a locking internal cavity, a camera, a weight sensor, a light, a control circuit, and a communication circuit. After receiving a request to view the contents and authenticating a user, the safe deposit box may take still or motion pictures of the contents and weigh the contents and send the results to the user or a server. If the contents of the safe deposit box have changed an alert may be sent to the user or a server.
