Abstract: A remote sensing system and device is provided for monitoring a condition within an infrastructure network. In particular, the system and device are configured to monitor components of civil water infrastructure such as sewers, rainwater infrastructure, freshwater infrastructure, manholes, catch pits, sewers, or outlets etc. The device includes an antenna unit having an elongate hollow shaft depending therefrom, and a monitoring unit for housing electrical components including a sensor for detecting a parameter. The monitoring unit is removably mounted to the antenna unit via the shaft, and connected to a component of the infrastructure being monitored, for example manhole cover or lid. The antenna unit and monitoring unit are separate and individually water-tight structures, and the elongate hollow connection shaft makes an essentially rigid connection, while finding a passageway between antenna unit and monitoring unit.

Abstract: An article tracking system including: a plurality of tags, each tag being attached to a respective article in use and including: a power supply; a tag transceiver that transmits or receives messages; and a tag processing device; a number of tag readers, each tag reader including: at least one reader transceiver that transmits or receives messages; and, a reader processing device in communication with the at least one tag reader; and, at least one processing system in communication with the number of tag readers, and wherein in use each tag reader: generates a message; and, transmits the message to one or more tags within an operating range of the reader, wherein ones of the one or more tags in a passive operating mode are responsive to the message to: receive the message; selectively change a tag operating mode; and, if the message is a broadcast message, transmit a tag message at least partially indicative of an identity of the tag; receives any tag messages; generates location data at least partially indica

Abstract: A kit of parts for securing a plurality of fixtures to an elongate support member is described. The kit of parts comprises a plurality of attachment members. Each attachment member comprises an aperture for receiving the elongate support member and a fixing detail adapted to attach a fixture to the attachment member. The aperture is larger than a lateral dimension of the elongate support member to provide a gap between the attachment member and elongate support member when received in the aperture. The kit of parts also comprises a plurality of locking elements. Each locking element is adapted to be received in the aperture in the gap between the attachment member and the elongate support member to secure the attachment member to the elongate support member by friction.
