  • Patent number: 10824194
    Abstract: Disclosed are implementations that including a device dispensing system that includes a rack comprising multiple slots to receive multiple modular blades, with each of the multiple modular blades including a plurality of adapters to receive a plurality of devices. The system also includes one or more modular blades received within respective one or more of the multiple slots, with at least a first one of the one or more modular blades configured to receive a first type of devices different from a second type of devices that at least a second one of the one or more modular blades is configured to receive. The system further includes a controller to control device docking for devices receivable into respective adapters provided in the one or more modular blades, to establish an electrical connection between the one or more devices and at least the controller.

  • Publication number: 20180171665
    Abstract: Disclosed are devices, systems, apparatus, methods, products, and other implementations, including a seal device that includes a housing and a controller disposed inside the housing, with the controller including at least one sensor configured to measure motion data to detect motion of the seal device, and a communication module. The seal device further includes a seal connectable to the housing, with the seal including a shell and a conductive wire connectable to the controller. The controller is configured to cause the communication module to transmit at least one signal at least in response to one of, for example: a) determination, based on the motion data measured by the at least one sensor, of movement of the seal device, and/or b) detection of structural damage to the seal.

  • Publication number: 20150185068
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, apparatus, devices, products, media and other implementations, including a system that includes a weight measure device with a suspension member, a wireless communication module, and a controller. The controller is configured to cause measuring a combined weight of one or more items suspended from the suspension member at a first time instance, with each of the one or more items including a respective traceable object coupled to a respective wireless identification device, and obtaining information transmitted to the wireless communication module by the respective wireless identification devices representative of an identification associated with the respective wireless identification device and the respective traceable object. The controller is also configured to cause obtaining from a database individual weights for each of the items, and determining whether the combined weight matches a sum of the individual weights obtained from the database for the one or more items.
