| 20080312946 | TRADE SHOW INFORMATION MANAGEMENT - Location-based technologies improve a trade show information management. Attendees may benefit from real time, location-specific feedback on trade show activities, aggregated exhibit ratings from other participants, automated and semi-automated exchanges of information with exhibitors, and so forth. Similarly, exhibitors may benefit from improved flow of relevant foot traffic and convenient registration of booth attendees. Trade show operators may also benefit from improved costing of trade show floor space, as well as enhanced opportunities to target related promotions. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20090237239 | Emergency Equipment Power Sources - Energy harvesting devices provide power to devices of emergency equipment stations (e.g., fire extinguisher station, fire alarm pull station, defibrillator station, etc.) distributed throughout a facility to monitor one or more internal or external conditions (e.g., identifiable objects detected near the station, presence of an obstruction restricting access to the station, etc.) and relay information about the monitored conditions to a central station. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20090243836 | Object Tracking with Emergency Equipment - A system including a network of emergency equipment stations is described. The network includes at least one emergency equipment station. The emergency equipment station includes an emergency assistance device, a first sensor configured to detect an object within a vicinity of the emergency equipment station and a second sensor configured to sense at least one selectable predetermined internal condition. The system may further include a central station that is remotely located from the emergency equipment station. The central station is configured to communicate with the emergency equipment station as well as the network and receive data from the first and the second sensors. | 10-01-2009 |
| 20090282912 | REMOTE FIRE EXTINGUISHER STATION INSPECTION - An apparatus for remote inspection of fire extinguishers at one or a system of fire extinguisher stations includes, e.g., at each fire extinguisher station: a detector for lack of presence of a fire extinguisher in its installed position at the fire extinguisher station; a detector for out-of-range pressure of contents of the fire extinguisher at the fire extinguisher station; a detector for an obstruction to viewing of or access to the fire extinguisher at the fire extinguisher station; and a device for transmission of inspection report information from the fire extinguisher station to a remote central station. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20100171624 | REMOTE MONITORING OF FLUID CONTAINERS - Apparatus for remote inspection of oxygen containers includes an electronic circuit in communication between each container (or at various locations along a pipeline) and a remote central station. The electronic circuit is adapted to issue a signal to the remote central station that includes information about predetermined internal and/or external conditions such as the level of oxygen stored in the tank, a pressure condition of material stored in the tank, a lack of presence of the tank in an installed position, or the presence of an obstruction restricting access to the tank. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20100192695 | REMOTE FIRE EXTINGUISHER STATION INSPECTION - An apparatus for remote inspection of fire extinguishers at one or a system of fire extinguisher stations includes, e.g., at each fire extinguisher station: a detector for lack of presence of a fire extinguisher in its installed position at the fire extinguisher station; a detector for out-of-range pressure of contents of the fire extinguisher at the fire extinguisher station; a detector for an obstruction to viewing of or access to the fire extinguisher at the fire extinguisher station; and a device for transmission of inspection report information from the fire extinguisher station to a remote central station. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100245570 | REMOTE MONITORING - Remote monitoring and inspection of measurement devices, emergency equipment, parking spaces, and other items is accomplished by using a digital image sensor (e.g., a CMOS sensor) to capture a digital image containing information about the monitored item. A signal containing information about the digital image (e.g., data representing the captured digital image or data indicating the state of the captured digital image) is transmitted to a remote central station. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20110109454 | REMOTE INSPECTION OF EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT STATIONS - An Apparatus for remote inspection of emergency equipment at one or a system of emergency equipment stations includes, e.g., at each emergency equipment station: a detector for detection of the presence of an obstruction to viewing of or access to the emergency equipment station; and an electronic circuit in communication between the detector and a remote central station for issue of a signal to the remote central station upon detection of the obstruction to viewing of or access to the emergency equipment station. | 05-12-2011 |
