  • METHODS AND SYSTEMS OF SELECTIVELY ENABLING A VEHICLE BY WAY OF A PORTABLE WIRELESS DEVICE
    Publication number: 20160132053
    Abstract: A system. The system includes a processor, a memory coupled to the processor, a first wireless communication circuit coupled to the processor. The first wireless communication circuit is configured to receive, from an operations center remotely located with respect to a vehicle, a message comprising an alert concerning a payment event. The system also includes a second wireless communication circuit, distinct from the first wireless communication circuit, coupled to the processor. The second wireless communication circuit is configured to relay the alert to a wireless device.

  • Onboard Starter-Interrupt Device Incorporating Wireless Personal Area Network
    Publication number: 20100268402
    Abstract: An onboard starter-interrupt device uses a Personal Area Network (PAN) to facilitate communication between a wireless device (such as a cellular telephone or personal digital assistant (PDA)) and the onboard device (also referred to interchangeably as a vehicle control device or a payment enforcement device) installed on a vehicle. The PAN can be implemented using, for example, the well-known Bluetooth protocol. The use of a PAN avoids the need for a visible keypad or other input device installed in the vehicle. The interface with the PAN also facilitates direct communication (including voice communication) using an existing cell phone. The interface with the PAN further allows a user or administrator to configure the operation of the onboard device using input/output components of the wireless device.

  • Electronic level gauge
    Patent number: 7000468
    Abstract: Disclosed is a fluid level gauge for sensing the level of fluid in a dispenser. The level gauge includes an inlet port communicating with the fluid and a check valve in communication with the inlet port. The check valve includes a membrane which allows air to pass. The level gauge further includes a pressure sensor in fluid communication with the check valve. The fluid level gauge may be used in connection with a beverage dispenser.
