Aspects of the invention are directed towards an apparatus and method for providing smart suggestions. One or more embodiments of the invention describe the method comprising steps of determining a defect associated with a first container, the first container comprises one or more items and establishing a communication with each of one or more second containers. The method further describes steps of transmitting a request to each of the one or more second containers and receiving information from each of the one or more second containers. The method also describes steps of determining one or more healthy containers from the one or more second containers based on the information and transmitting a message to a user equipment for shifting the one or more items from the first container to the one or more healthy containers.

The present disclosure relates to a wireless battery management system, and more particularly, to a wireless battery management system, a node for wireless communication, and a method of transmitting data, which ensure stability and efficiency when obtaining battery data through wireless communication. A wireless battery management system includes a manager node obtaining battery data from a plurality of monitor nodes by using a first channel and a second channel which are communication channels based on wireless communication, a first monitor node collecting first battery data and transmitting the first battery data to the manager node through the first channel during a first dedicated slot, and a second monitor node collecting second battery data and transmitting the second battery data to the manager node through the second channel during the first dedicated slot.

A detector includes a housing having a window. A detection engine is configured to detect an event external to the housing. A battery is connected to the detection engine and configured to supply power thereto. A solar cell is configured to generate electricity when exposed to a light received through the window. The solar cell is arranged in the housing and electrically connected to the battery.

Systems and methods are described for securely monitoring a shipping container for an environmental anomaly using elements of a wireless node network of sensor-based ID nodes disposed within the container and a command node associated with the container. The method has the command node identifying which of the ID nodes are confirmed as trusted sensors based upon a security credential specific to each of the ID nodes; monitoring only the confirmed ID nodes for sensor data broadcast those ID nodes; detecting the anomaly based upon the sensor data from at least one of the confirmed ID nodes; automatically generating an alert notification related to the detected environmental anomaly for the shipping container; and transmitting the alert notification to the external transceiver to initiate a mediation response related to the detected environmental anomaly.

Devices, systems and method for remotely monitoring temperature and humidity are disclosed. Sensor units are capable of reading temperature experienced by liquid pharmaceuticals. Each of a plurality of sensor units may be placed in a variety of locations and communicate temperature data to one or more controllers. Controllers also monitor ambient temperature and humidity. Collected data is transmitted over a network, and monitored according to user-configurable policies and workflows. Alerts and notifications may be generated according to workflows and user devices receive notifications.

Example methods and arrangements for sensors are disclosed herein. At least one storage device or storage disk includes instructions that, when executed, cause at least one processor of a mobile electronic device to at least access notification data indicative of an event at a security perimeter of a building, the notification data corresponding to a change in a status of one or more sensors at the security perimeter; present the notification data to a user of the mobile electronic device, the notification data including image data associated with the event; generate a message based on a user input at the mobile electronic device in response to the notification data; and output the message to cause a responsive action.

The present disclosure provides a method and an Internet of Things system for gas usage safety warning based on a smart gas, the method is performed by a smart gas safety management platform of an Internet of Things system for gas usage safety warning based on a smart gas, comprising: based on gas usage data, determining a gas monitoring object from at least one gas device; determining initial objects based on the gas monitoring object and a gas usage threshold; determining a target object based on historical gas data of the initial objects; and sending gas usage safety warning information to a gas user corresponding to the target object.

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.
