Publication number: 20240046196Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for resolving a risk associated with a shipped physical object. The methods and servers comprise associating a time with a geographical region. The methods and servers also comprise receiving a set of locations associated with transport of a physical object. In addition, the methods and servers comprise determining that the set of locations fails to satisfy a condition associated with the time and the geographical region. The sensor devices report location data to a server at a first time interval, wherein the location data fails to satisfy a condition associated with a time and a geographical region. The sensor devices also receive an indication of a panic mode. In addition, the sensor devices also report location data to the server at a second time interval, wherein the second time interval is different than the first time interval.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Applicant: FedEx Corporate Services, Inc.Inventors: Amber Moriah WILLIAMS, Chris Swearingen, Cheri Bailey Shirokova
