20150316942 | PRESENTING INFORMATION REGARDING CONDITIONS OF AN ENVIRONMENT WITH A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT - Configuring a user interface by which a user can view information regarding one or more conditions of an environment collected by an environmental monitoring system. An environmental monitoring system comprises one or more sensor units disposed in an environment and one or more servers. The servers may receive from an operator of the environment a visual representation of the environment and may identify a position in the visual representation corresponding to the location and configure a user interface to present information regarding the environment based at least in part on the positions. The user interface can be configured to display the visual representation and display information related to the first sensor unit so as to indicate a relationship between the information and the position corresponding to the location of the first sensor unit. Information identifying a location of one or more sensor units may be determined through an automated process. | 11-05-2015 |

The system comprises a computing device configured to compute, based on values of physical properties of a simulated object and the at least one report, a simulated condition of the simulated object within the environment. The computing device is also configured to compare the simulated condition to a criterion. The computing device is further configured to selectively output an indication of an alarm condition based on the comparing. The computing device may also be configured to receive through a user interface an input of the values of the physical properties of the simulated object. The environment may be managed by a user, and the computing device may be further configured to associate input with an account based on credentials issued to a user for the account. A method for operating the computing device. | 07-30-2015 |

20130311140 | WIRELESS NETWORK OF ENVIRONMENTAL SENSOR UNITS - Environmental monitoring systems that include base stations and environmental sensor units (ESUs) that communicate in a wireless sensor network. A base station may include environmental sensors and may communicate with a remote server using a wide-area wireless network. The base station may also communicate with an environmental sensor unit using a wireless personal area network. The ESU may include environmental sensors and may communicate with the remote server via the base station. The base station and ESU may be adapted to automatically pair with one another to enable the ESU to communicate via the base station. An ESU may also be adapted to process data regarding environmental conditions by automatically determining a type of environmental sensor from which the data was received and processing the data based on the type. An ESU may also include physical ports by which new sensors can be connected to the ESU. | 11-21-2013 |
