Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for monitoring and managing parts, enterprise resources and other assets, and alleviating risks, in a complex collaboration environment are provided. According to some example aspects of the invention, a device with a hardware- and software-based control system scans and/or writes unique asset-related information within a plurality of chemical, electromagnetic, or written data-bearing tags within, on or throughout an asset for use in a manufacturing, maintenance and/or tracking process. In other example aspects, the system records that asset-specific information (e.g., using secure network(s) and/or a blockchain), providing it for later access and modification by a number of trusted users, to track and control manufacturing-, maintenance-relevant or other factors. In still other example aspects, an enterprise resource planning system both outputs information to, and receives information from, the control system, reconciling changes in the data.

Abstract: The disclosed apparatuses and processes utilize multiple threads over multiple paths (towers and/or carriers) in order to improve the above noted problems by dynamically splitting multiple data streams, sending these multiple data streams over multiple data link paths over a cellular network and then combining some or all of the data streams to provide error free availability of relevant data and control while intelligently mitigating bandwidth limitations and “loss of link” or connection, for secure and safe UAS operations. Also described are processes to improve Throughput and/or Reliability of Video data when transmitted over multi-threaded, primarily but not limited to, cellular based communications systems, with a particular emphasis on video used in support of UAS missions.
