Abstract: A disclosed method for assessing and influencing behavior, including workplace activity, of a personal computer user. User behavior and/or activity information pertaining to the user is received from the user's various smart devices such as a laptop, desktop, or hybrid computer, a mobile device, and a wearable device. The user's information is collected and an intelligence resource learns norms and distributions for various parameters and defines one or more user behavior thresholds. The user's present condition may be evaluated based on recently observed and collected activity and a risk factor score may be assigned. An initial behavior-influencing action appropriate for the user condition and risk level is performed. Disclosed methods further include performing at least one extended action pertaining to the initial action. The extended action can include evaluating and effectiveness of the initial action or the performance of a progressive action or a supplementary action.

Abstract: Electronic components may be integrated in objects used by the trucking industry, such as truck, tractor trailer, cargo, and loading bay. These objects may then communicate with each other and with a gateway device to transmit or receive data or commands. The gateway may be configured to attach to the truck, such as by securing to the truck frame or securing to an interior of the truck cab. The gateway may couple to one or more input devices, and receive sensor data through the one or more input devices. The gateway may execute steps that allow the gateway to verify a trailer being picked up by a truck is the correct trailer and verify proper inspection of the trailer prior to transport.
