Filed:

Sep 3, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/553900

Inventors:

Jonathan Gips - Boston MA, US
Ryan Aylward - Boston MA, US

International Classification:

G06F 7/04
H04Q 5/22

US Classification:

340 51, 340 103

Abstract:

A method and device may comprise receiving a signal from a sensor attached to an object. The signal may represent a characteristic of the object. An activity state of the object may be classified based upon, at least in part, the characteristic. Further, a locomotive rate corresponding to the activity state of the object may be determined. Moreover a ping period based upon, a least in part, the locomotive rate may be calculated. A transmitter may transmit pings based upon, at least in part, the ping period.

Appl. No.:

12/553921

Inventors:

Jonathan Gips - Boston MA, US
Ryan Aylward - Boston MA, US
Mathew Laibowitz - Cambridge MA, US

International Classification:

H04L 12/26

US Classification:

370248

Abstract:

A method and device may comprise transmitting, via a transmitter, a plurality of transmit pings at a transmit interval. A receiver may listen, for a live ping and the receiver may be configured to be turned on at a beginning of the assess interval, and off at an end of the detect duration. The receiver may further receive the live ping. After receiving the live ping, transmission of a new ping may be delayed for a delay duration. The new pings may be transmitted at the transmit interval.

Appl. No.:

16/315782

Inventors:

Ryan Aylward - Somerville MA, US
William Lark, Jr. - Glendale CA, US

International Classification:

H05B 37/02
H01H 21/02
G06F 3/0484

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides an intelligent lighting control system configured for customization based user detection. A lighting control system includes a module housing, a graphical user interface, and a switch control circuit including a processor configured to modulate the flow of electrical energy to a lighting circuit via a dimmer circuit to produce a plurality of lighting scenes. The processor is configured to identify a proximate device identification, compare the identified device with one or more registered devices saved in a dataset, select a user profile, if the identified device corresponds to one of the one or more registered devices saved in the dataset. The processor is configured to cause a change in at least one of a scene selection protocol for selecting at least one lighting scene from the plurality of lighting scenes based on the user profile selected and a display setting of the graphical user interface.

G06Q 30/06
H05B 37/03
G01R 31/44

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides apparatuses and methods for bulb detection for a lighting control system. The apparatus includes a lighting control module configured to cause a transmission of a quantity of electrical energy to a lighting circuit of a light fixture electrically connected to the lighting control module. The apparatus includes a detector circuit positioned in the lighting control module. The detector circuit is configured to measure a response of the lighting circuit to the transmission of the quantity of electrical energy. The apparatus also includes a controller in electrical communication with the detector circuit. The controller is specially programmed to correlate the quantity of electrical energy transmitted to the lighting circuit to the response of the lighting circuit. The controller is further programmed to determine the bulb type of a bulb electrically coupled to the lighting circuit of the light fixture.

International Classification:

A61B 19/00
G08B 1/08

US Classification:

34053912

Abstract:

A system and method for reducing medical error is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system comprises a worker device adapted to be worn on a worker, a compliance device, an action device and a base station. The compliance device defines a work zone based on a signal strength received by the worker device from a monitoring signal transmitted from the compliance device. The action device is adapted to be installed to a pump bottle, having a pressure-sensitive mechanism for actuating the action device upon the worker pressing the pump bottle, and an omnidirectional antenna adapted to transmit an action signal to be received by the worker device upon actuation of the action device. The base station is adapted to receive data transmitted from said worker device.
