  • Patent number: 10706172
    Abstract: A security management system includes a controlled device to execute a security management method. The controlled device includes a wireless module and a processing module. The processing module communicates with a main controlling device through the wireless module for pairing. When the main controlling device is successfully paired to the controlled device, the processing module executes a security mode. In the security mode, a user directly operates the controlled device. When the controlled device is not successfully paired to the main controlling device, the controlled device cannot execute the security mode, and the controlled device cannot be operated. Therefore, the user only needs to ensure that the main controlling device is nearby; even if the user is at a position distanced from the controlled device, the controlled device may not be operated by others.

  • Publication number: 20190199697
    Abstract: A management method is performed by an electronic device of a management system. When the electronic device determines that a trigger condition is fulfilled, the electronic device loads a set of key commands and executes a predetermined event according to the key commands. The set of key commands is defined by a user to trigger the predetermined event, and provides protection to the electronic device. The management system includes the electronic device and a key device, which are wirelessly connected. If the key device does not execute a device management program, the electronic device executes a security procedure to provide protection to the electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20170272705
    Abstract: A multimedia playing system for automatically notifying abnormal situations has a TV dongle and a network security camera connected to the TV dongle through network. The TV dongle has an email processing server module. The network security camera has an email transmitting module. When the network security camera detects an abnormal situation, an event message is transmitted to the email processing server module. The email processing server module accordingly generates a command. According to the command, the TV dongle transmits a control signal to control a digital TV to immediately display the abnormal situation. Therefore, the multimedia playing system automatically informs a user of the occurrence of the normal situation.

  • Publication number: 20140176309
    Abstract: A remote control system using a handheld electronic device to remotely control electrical appliances includes a handheld electronic device and a command conversion device. The handheld electronic device uses a command input device to generate operation information. A command recognizing module receives the operation information, and identifies the corresponding home appliance remote control code. A wireless emission module emits a home appliance remote control code, which is received by the command conversion device. The command conversion device determines the infrared execution command corresponding to the home appliance remote control code. The infrared execution command is emitted by the infrared emission module to remotely control home appliances with the infrared remote control function. The handheld electronic device is enabled to provide a variety of different operating modes without significantly increasing the cost of the entire system.
