Abstract: System and methods for locating radio-frequency-emitting devices. The method may comprise registering, on a downloadable software application on a first locator device, a trackable device, thereby creating a registered trackable device, which emits a radio frequency signal, then detecting, via a radio frequency scan conducted by a second locator device, a sighting of the registered trackable device; determining, at the second locator device, whether the sighting of the registered trackable device meets criteria defining the sighting as a new location of that registered trackable device, the criteria including a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value; communicating, when the sighting of the registered trackable device meets the criteria, a report of the new location to a server, the report including a geographical location of the registered trackable device; and sending a notification from the server to the first locator device that a new location of the registered trackable device has occurred.

Abstract: System and methods for locating radio-frequency-emitting devices are provided. The method may comprise registering, on a downloadable software application on a first locator device, a trackable device, wherein the registered trackable device emits a radio frequency signal, then detecting, via a radio frequency scan conducted by a second locator device, a sighting of the registered trackable device. The method may then comprise determining, at the second locator device, whether the sighting of the registered trackable device meets criteria defining the sighting as a new location of that registered trackable device, wherein the criteria are configurable on a software application located on a server. Further, the method may include communicating a report of the new location and geographical location to the server, sending a notification from the server to the first locator device that a new location has occurred, and presenting the geographical location of the registered trackable device.
