Abstract: A system has a sensor and a wireless communication module. The sensor is configured to detect one more physical properties of a belt component being inserted in a seat belt housing. The wireless communication module is configured to transmit information concerning the one or more physical properties. In certain configurations, the system also has a distance module that detects the distance of the wireless communication module from the mobile device. The one or more physical properties indicate whether a buckled event has occurred. An alarm is sounded when a buckled event is detected in conjunction with a threshold distance of the wireless communication module from the mobile device being exceeded.

Abstract: According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a wearable device includes a plurality of sensors. The plurality of sensors are configured to detect information concerning a wearer or a surrounding of the wearer of the wearable device. At least some of the detected information is automatically communicated from the wearable device to a remote application based on either a request from a user of the remote application or a trigger initiated on the wearable device when the detected information from the one or more sensors indicate an event has occurred. In certain configurations, the event may be an uttered request for help or a detect increase in heart rate above an expected signature. In certain configurations, some of the information is transmitted to a security or law enforcement agency. In certain configurations, some of the information transmitted is prior recorded information that would otherwise be deleted had the request or trigger not occurred.
