Patents by Inventor Dell Sala

Dell Sala has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240393779
    Abstract: A facility monitoring system, device and application receives and interprets readings from multiple sensors for determining a condition, alert or alarm triggered at the facility, and initiates appropriate notifications and/or responses. Low-cost sensors detect or receive a sensed parameter pertaining to a condition in a physical facility space, such as temperature, moisture, electric failure or portal/door state. Sensor feedback transmitted and received at a remote facility manager or application is reported via a user accessible GUI (Graphical User Interface). The facility manager commences remedial action in response to an anomalous sensor state or reading, which includes notification of responsive entities for correcting or mitigating the triggering condition.

  • Patent number: 10678611
    Abstract: A facility monitoring system and application receives and interprets readings from multiple sensors for determining a condition, alert or alarm and initiating appropriate notifications. Low-cost, deployed sensors detect or receive a parameter pertaining to a condition in a physical space, such as temperature, electric flow, or an open door. A channel to a remote monitoring server or application receives and reports the reading via a user accessible GUI (graphical user interface). A compound or aggregate value is computed from multiple channels based on readings from a plurality of sensors, thus allowing reporting of conclusory conditions based on several related readings, rather than a single scalar sensor value that imposes a burden on the user to deduce or investigate other related sensor readings. A GUI receives aggregation processor defining computations to be performed on readings from the multiple sensors, and alert processor defining conditions and alerts representative of issues requiring attention.
