Abstract: Systems and methods of tracking objects, including a sensor configured to detect data related to one or more attributes of the object, a tracking device attachable to the object to transmit data detected by the sensor, a software application modifiable by a user to receive transmitted data from the tracking device according to a frequency of data transmissions selected by the user, including firmware within a chip on the tracking device configured to determine a frequency of data transmissions from the tracking device to the software application based on instructions related to characteristics of transmitted data, wherein the instructions are modifiable by the user based on the characteristics of transmitted data.

Abstract: Systems and methods of tracking attributes of objects, including a sensor configured to detect data related to one or more attributes of the object, a tracking device attachable to the object to transmit data detected by the sensor, a software application modifiable by a user, the software application being configured to receive transmitted data from the tracking device, firmware within a chip on the tracking device configured to determine a frequency of data transmissions from the tracking device to the software application based on instructions related to characteristics of transmitted data, and a display configured to show the frequency of data transmissions from the tracking device to the software application.

Abstract: A GPS tracking device and system, attached to a boat or other asset, with enhanced battery life includes SaaS application to monitor the status of the GPS tracking device battery and determine the intensity of the tracking information desired as the asset and GPS tracking device is moved from the manufacturer to the consumer. The GPS tracking device is mounted within the boat or other asset on the assembly line or in the field at such location as a dealer, for example, and is carried on the boat from the manufacturer to the dealer and ultimately to the consumer.

Abstract: A boat, power sport, recreational vehicle or other asset system for GPS tracking with extended battery life comprising a GPS tracking device with internal battery supply attached to the boat, power sport, recreational vehicle or other asset, an SaaS Application in communication with the GPS tracking device that determines which data to collect from the GPS tracking device, which data to distribute and a frequency of data transmissions required as the boat, power sport, recreational vehicle or other asset moves from a manufacturer to a consumer in a supply chain, and collects the data that the GPS tracking device sends through wireless, cellular, WIFI or Blue Tooth technology, firmware that communicates with the SaaS Application and the GPS tracking device and updates rules within a chip or board on the GPS tracking device that determines what data to collect, what data to distribute, when to send data, how often data is sent, when the GPS tracking device will wake up and when the GPS tracking device will slee

Abstract: Systems and methods of tracking attributes of objects, including a sensor configured to detect data related to one or more attributes of the object, a tracking device attachable to the object to transmit data detected by the sensor, a software application modifiable by a user, the software application being configured to receive transmitted data from the tracking device, firmware within a chip on the tracking device configured to determine a frequency of data transmissions from the tracking device to the software application based on transmission rules related to characteristics of transmitted data, and a display configured to show the frequency of data transmissions from the tracking device to the software application.

Abstract: A tracking device with a screen that displays the mode of the tracking device on a screen. The device modes may include sleep mode, monitor mode, locate mode, and emergency mode. Each mode represents a frequency of transmission and which can be changed by the software developer or by the consumer in their software application. The sleep mode will be the fewest frequency pings and may be the mode in which the tracking device is operating while it is in a geofence. Monitor mode will be a higher frequency of pings and a locate mode may be yet a further increased number of pings per given time interval. The emergency mode will be entered when, for example, the pet is outside of the geofence and the owner needs to receive an intense number of pings to assure proper location, especially if the pet is moving.

Abstract: A tracking insert adapted, in an exemplary embodiment, to be inserted into and received by the collar connector of a state-of-the-art pet collar, such that the tracking insert becomes an extension of the pet collar is provided. The tracking insert comprises a linear band housing a linear array of electronic modules in electronic communication with one another. For instance, the modules include, in an exemplary embodiment, a GPS radio receiver, one or more modules adapted to communicate with a mobile device by known protocols such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or mobile communication protocols in a manner readily understood and implementable by those skilled in the art, and other modules such as a light, a camera and/or a communication module to allow the owner to communicate with the pet.
