Abstract: A tracking system includes a hub coupled to a client device, such as a computer or mobile phone, and one or more tags configured to wirelessly communicate with the hub. The hub includes a web server and a radio frequency transceiver. A browser executing on the client device exchanges data with the web server included in the hub, allowing location of the one or more tags via the client device without installation of a dedicated application on the client device for communicating with the hub or with the one or more tags. Additionally, the client device may communicate with a remote server via a network to communicate with additional tags via the browser executing on the client device. The hub transmits an activation request to the one or more tags via near field communication, radio frequency communication, or another suitable wireless communication method.

Abstract: A pill verification system obtains a prescription filled at a pharmacy and gathers information of the pills being dispensed for a remote pharmacist to verify the prescription. As pills are dispensed to a pill vial to fill the prescription, a pill imaging system captures images of the pills, and a pill vial imaging system captures an image of the pill vial. The prescription, pill images, and pill vial image are transmitted to a remote verification system. A pharmacist is presented with the prescription, images of substantially all pills filling the prescription, and the pill vial of the prescription to verify the prescription is correct. The remote verification system may present prescriptions filled from many different pharmacies, permitting increased rate of verification and one pharmacist to support many pharmacies. The pharmacist's verification is transmitted to the pill verification system and displayed for a technician to complete verification of the pills.

Abstract: A computer telephony system interfaces with a user of a telephone by detecting an off-hook at the telephone. The system then automatically couples the telephone to a speech recognition system and then receives an input from the user to the speech recognition system. The input instructs the system to dial a telephone number or requests some other telecommunication service.
