Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a method and system for programming wireless sensor tags, and such programmed wireless sensor tags. Embodiments of the method and apparatus can be utilized in food service operations, without utilizing a computing device or smartphone for programming the wireless sensor tag. Embodiments relate to a method and system for programming wireless temperature sensor tags, and such programmed wireless temperature sensor tags. Embodiments of the subject method use NFC-enabled cards with Near Field Communications (NFC) technology to quickly and simply program a wireless temperature sensor tag to read, collect, and report the temperature of a food item or ingredient. The use of this method enables food service operators, such as: quick-serve restaurants (QSRs), school cafeterias, and food service departments within supermarkets, to simplify the collection of temperature data within the retail space, as well as throughout the supply chain of products.

Abstract: A module for detecting and notifying of the presence of ammunition in an ammunition magazine is provided, comprising a spring and a follower for containing and advancing ammunition within the magazine. A printed circuit board having electronics mounted thereon is mounted in a handle of a gun and includes a central processing unit with access to memory having executable instruction data thereon, at least one motion sensor for sensing motion of the printed circuit board, an eccentric motor, a connector providing remote digital access to the processor, at least one mechanism for erasing data or resetting parameters, and a battery bay for accepting a battery, at least one sensor for detecting position of the spring or follower. An amount of ammunition is thereby discerned by the central processing unit based upon the position of the spring or follower.

Abstract: A vehicle assessment analyzer is in communication with a vehicle, via the vehicle network computer and the vehicle communication bus. The vehicle assessment analyzer obtains the vehicle VIN from the vehicle and transmits the VIN to a vehicle assessment analytics server. The vehicle assessment analytics server then determines assessment readings to be performed on the vehicle, such as individual electronic sensors therein, to generate an overall vehicle assessment as compared to other vehicles of similar make, model, etc. These assessment readings are sent to the vehicle assessment analyzer which obtains the associated data and transmits the data back to the server for generation of the overall vehicle assessment. The assessment readings may query the vehicle network computer via standard assessment readings, and heightened assessment readings, and may also query the vehicle communications bus directly thereby obtaining any desired electronic information available from the vehicle.
