Publication number: 20230288265Abstract: A method of monitoring, via a temperature sensor, a temperature of a container that stores an item. There is a first step of periodically measuring the temperature of the interior compartment of the container, and the first step occurs while the container is stationary. Subsequently, there is a second step of periodically measuring the temperature of the interior compartment of a container, and the second step occurs while the container is being transported by a vehicle to a destination. Subsequently, there is a third step of periodically measuring the temperature of the interior compartment, and the third step occurs after the container has been delivered to the destination and while the container is stationary. In addition the method includes periodically transmitting information comprising the measured temperatures from the first, second, and third steps to a server, and storing the measured temperatures.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2023Publication date: September 14, 2023Applicant: HOME VALET, INC.Inventors: John SIMMS, John Simms, JR., Michael Seeley, Joey Bertalan, Patrick Boarman

Publication number: 20150326641Abstract: In various example embodiments, systems and methods for mobile to mobile remote control are presented. A control request may be received at a client device from a control device. The control device and the client device may be in communication with a network. The client device may determine an authorization for the control device in response to receiving the control request. Based on the determined authorization, a data link may be established between the client device and the control device using a control device identifier. The data link may allow the exchange of information between the client device and the control device without an intermediate network node. The client device may receive a command request from the control device via the data link. The command request may be initiated by a control user of the control device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 7, 2014Publication date: November 12, 2015Applicant: W2G, LLCInventors: Michael Seeley, Nancy L. Albertini, Stephen J. Metzger
