  • Patent number: 10797496
    Abstract: A modular charging station is disclosed as configured with a plurality of charging ports that enable a mobile device, mobile device removable battery, and mobile device auxiliary component to be charged simultaneously. One or more of the charging ports can be disposed on a removable base that is configured to be inserted within a bay in the charging station. Furthermore, the charging station is configured to physically and electrically connect to another charging station, wherein a plurality of charging stations can be connected to one another in series, and a single power source connection can supply power to charge all components connected to any charging port in the chain of linked charging stations.

  • Publication number: 20190341951
    Abstract: A mobile device is disclosed with a plurality of layered, protective shells that provide impact resistance, liquid resistance, and durability when subject to turbulent conditions and environments. The mobile device contains a hot-swap, dual battery configuration, wherein one of the batteries is detachable and replaceable with another fully charged battery while the mobile device remains powered, thereby enabling the user to forego the need for a power supply for an extended use of the mobile device. Moreover, the mobile device can contain wings attached to the device enclosure, wherein straps, bands, and/or clasps can be inserted within the wings and secured about a user's body, such as a wrist, providing the user with easy accessibility to the device.

  • Patent number: 9977461
    Abstract: A mobile device is provided that includes a display module that detachably couples to a wrap module. The interconnection between the wrap module and the display module provides data and/or power conductivity there between. In this manner, the wrap module can provide supplemental functionality, such as serving as an input device (touch), a power source, or a solar charger, among other features.

  • Patent number: 9826375
    Abstract: The present invention provides computer-implemented systems and methods directed to facilitating communication between users in close proximity who have indicated a mutual interest in one another. The exemplary method generally comprises the following steps: affiliating a first and a second user with an interactive network. The system then receives and stores user selected profiles and associates those profiles with each user. Users can browse these profiles and select profiles in which they are interested. If the system receives data indicating that two users have mutually selected each other's profiles, the system pairs these users. The system receives geo positioning data from each mobile device and utilizes this data to determine if users are in close proximity. If the system determines that users are in close proximity, then the system determines if the users have mutually selected the other's profile as a profile of interest, e.g., matched users.

  • Publication number: 20170215530
    Abstract: A wristband assembly is provided having a strap assembly with a first strap and a second strap. Each strap has a plurality of apertures arranged thereon such that the apertures on each strap align, allowing for prongs of a clasp member to pass through and connect each strap. The clasp member has an upper lateral bar disposed at an offset position above a lower lateral bar, whereby the upper lateral bar acts as a snag-guard. Each prong has a first lip and a second lip, both of which are slightly larger than the corresponding apertures through which the prongs pass through, allowing each lip to hold a strap in place when engaged with the clasp member. When the two straps are connected via the clasp member, the clasp member acts as a snag-guard to the first strap and simultaneously as the sole means of connection between the two straps forming a wristband.

  • Publication number: 20170213186
    Abstract: A system and a related method for logistics management is provided, having a networked server system and at least one database that stores (a) data for registered users and (b) inventory data. The system broadcasts a task by the server system via wireless communications, to mobile computing devices; conducts a congruence assessment for each mobile device to assess whether the registered user of the device can accept the task; transmits the congruence assessment from each of the plurality of mobile devices to the server system; and assigns the task based on the congruence assessments.
