  • Publication number: 20190371161
    Abstract: A tamper indication device has a film attached and connected within the circuit that generates a signal in response to a tamper event. The tamper indication device can be incorporated into a bullet proof vest. The sensor circuit in the bullet proof vest does not only detect a bullet strike but also determines the location of the strike base in the sensor zone where the sensor zone has been struck.

  • Publication number: 20190355226
    Abstract: A tamper indication device has a film attached and connected within the circuit that generates a signal in response to a tamper event. The tamper indication device can be incorporated into a ceiling, corners of a wall and/or a floor. The sensor circuit detects breaches and alert someone as to where the breach is located specifically in the building and also determines and send information as to the location of the breach struck.

  • Publication number: 20190355239
    Abstract: A tamper indication device incorporated with goods shipped on a pallet includes a sensor panel comprising silver conductive etched ink printed on either film laminate or sterile made of poly-coated, spun-bounded polypropylene fabric and for fluid resistant protection, coated with a dielectric. The sensor generates a signal in response to a tamper event. The stretchable flexible film is covered by stretch wrap, shrink wrap, banded or covered by a box or container to the goods in place on said pallet. A communication module attached to the sensor panel transponder receives the signal which generates an output signal to up to 30 cell phones and/or a display or data collection device and transceiver for receiving the message due to is a breach/ tear and or injury to the film and a Google® Map link identifies a location of the detected breach/tear or damage and generates an output to a display or data collection device and transceiver.

  • Patent number: 8826575
    Abstract: A microcontroller operated module is affixed to a firearm. The module includes an accelerometer for measuring the G force of each round fired by the firearm, a flash memory (non-volatile memory) for storing the shot profile data that includes shot count and recoil data and transmitting it to a remote location such as a remote computer via a serial communication device pursuant to RS232 standard, Bluetooth, a wave or other low power RF transmitter. The module including a wake up circuit adapted to switch upon detection of a fired shot to signal said microcontroller to initialize a low power mode to activate said MEMS accelerometer faster than said accelerometer would activate by itself.

  • Publication number: 20090189763
    Abstract: A tamper indication device has a film attached and connected within the circuit that generates a signal in response to a tamper event. The signal is received by a micro-controller which generates an output signal to a display or data collection device and transceiver. More particularly, the tamper indication device has a printed circuit in a specialized pattern to make entry without breaking the circuit near impossible. When the circuit is broken a signal is counted by the micro controller which generates an output signal for delivery to a display or other data collection device. The output signal can be transmitted by RF device such as a passive or active RFID Tag, or by an IR communications device or by any other communication variant.
