Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for detecting events occurring to an article at a remote location using low-power event detection circuitry and transmission of event detection messages over a network.

Abstract: Some methods enable a computer to receive location information from a device and determine a coverage region for the device. The device's coverage region is the area within range of a wireless signal coming from the device. The computer can determine that part of the device's coverage region covers part of a specified region and instruct the device to provide wireless access to a network associated with the first region.

Abstract: Systems and methods for remotely controlling an article based on authentication of the article. A communication system with a senor for detecting an interaction event can be coupled to an article. The communication system can be associated with an article identifier. A communication including the article identifier can be received and the identification of the article through the article identifier can be authenticated based on an association of the article identifier with the communication system to verify that the communication is generated in response to the interaction event occurring at the article and being detected by the sensor of the communication system. As follows, operation of the article can be remotely controlled based on whether the article is authenticated.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable mediums for configuring a radio system to provide network service access based on a location of the radio system. The radio system can identify the location and send a location signal indicating its location over a first network. The radio system can receive, over the first network, first configuration data for communicating over a second network based on its location. The radio system can configure itself to communicate over the second network using the first configuration data and subsequently provide network service access over the second network according to the first configuration data.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing a third party access to interaction data of an article. An event detection system can be coupled to an article for a recipient. The event detection system can include a wireless communication interface and a sensor configured to detect at least one interaction event that occurs at the article. Interaction data related to the at least one interaction event can be generated that includes a user identifier of the recipient that is uniquely associated with an article identifier of the article. The interaction data can be transmitted through the wireless communication interface to an operating server for providing a third party access to the interaction data based on the inclusion of the user identifier and the article identifier with the interaction data.
