Abstract: The disclosure includes facilitating transmission of event based notifications to devices. As an example, a method comprises generating, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, a set of event data based on an occurrence of one or more event; and transmitting, by the system, a subset of event data to an application executing on a second device. The method can further comprise a second subset of event data based on a help button of the first device being triggered, wherein the second subset of event data is configured to notify the application executing on the second device of the help button being triggered. The method can comprise generating a third subset of event data based on a sensor of the first device being triggered, wherein the third subset of event data is configured to notify the application executing on the second device of the sensor being triggered.

Abstract: An object proximity alert system for an object network includes an object module having a data processing unit; a GPS unit; and a transceiver, the latter both connected to the data processing unit. A first object in the network has the module, such that the data processing unit obtains first object position data from the GPS unit, calculates the speed of the object, and transmits position data using the transceiver to other network objects, the data processing unit calculates the respective positions of the first object with the objects in the network based on the data, and compares the position data against a preset target separation between the first object and the other objects. In the event a separation distance between the first object and another object in the network is less than the target separation, the data processing unit generates an alarm in at least the first object.
