  • Publication number: 20140074516
    Abstract: A device and software utilizing Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) technologies for monitoring and recovering portable computing devices and, a method and system for acquiring such devices, protecting data on such devices, and for compensating owners of devices. A GPS mechanism of the invention provides real time tracking of missing devices that may be coordinated with security agencies to intercept and recover missing computing devices. When a stolen device is unrecoverable, the invention may receive a signal to initiate data recovery where a wireless network is available to recover data for the owner. Alternatively, the GPS mechanism instructs the device to encrypt or destroy stored data files to prevent commercial espionage or privacy violations. The invention discloses a software system and method for computing a purchase price of the GPS mechanism, computing compensation for loss of the device and lost data.

  • Patent number: 8427305
    Abstract: A device and software utilizing Global Positioning Satellite [GPS] technologies for monitoring and recovering portable computing devices and, a method and system for acquiring such devices and for compensating owners of devices. The invention inserts a GPS mechanism into a computing device that is enabled once the device is reported missing. The GPS emits real time tracking of missing devices that may be coordinated with security agencies to intercept and recover missing computing devices. When a stolen device is unrecoverable, the invention may receive a signal to initiate data recovery where a wireless network is available to recover data for the owner. Alternatively, the GPS mechanism instructs the device to destroy stored data files to prevent commercial espionage or privacy violations. The invention discloses a software system and method for computing a purchase price of the GPS mechanism, computing compensation for loss of the device and lost data.

  • Patent number: 4840841
    Abstract: A disposable one-piece seat liner formed from a uniform layer of absorbant cellulosic fibers possessing sufficient integrity than it does not abrade during normal use bonded to a flexible moisture repellant backing sheet. The seat liner is designed for use on seals having a bottom, back, sidewalls and arms and has an upper and lower section with the upper section sized to cover the back of the seat with the side edges folding forward and the lower section sized to cover the bottom of the seat with the side edges folding upward along the arms of the seat joined by a fold line at the junction between the upper and lower sections. A plurality of slots are provided to accommodate the seat belts of a wide range of different care seats, strollers, carriers, highchairs and the like having attachment means passing between the legs of a person seated in the seat, coming over the shoulders or around the waist from the midpoint of the back of from the sides.
