Abstract: Embodiments relate to fall protection safety devices, such as various fall arresting personal safety devices as safety harnesses, belts, and/or lanyards by way of non-exclusive example, having one or more end of service life indicators. Typically, the device would include webbing and one or more end of service life indicators for indicating when the webbing has been exposed to a sufficient concentration of some degrading condition for sufficient duration that there is a risk that the structural integrity, strength, and/or tenacity of the webbing would fall below the safety limit. Such devices would allow for a quick visual inspection to determine if the fall protection device should be retired from service.

Abstract: An anti-slip harness buckle element has a planar body portion with a plurality of slots formed therein. A biased, U-shaped, friction generating member is carried in one of the slots and slidably engages same. A portion of a support strap, or webbing extends through at least two of the slots of the buckle element and is in part forced toward an edge of one of the slots by the U-shaped, friction generating member thereby crating locking friction relative two the webbing to prevent slippage thereof.

Abstract: A portable emergency communication device includes a first receiver for receiving location determination signals from the global positioning satellite (GPS) system, and a second receiver for receiving incoming signals from a subscriber-based satellite radio system, such as the Sirius or XM satellite radio service providers. The device includes a transmitter for transmitting outgoing signals to a search and rescue satellite system, such as the Cospas-Sarsat satellite system. The incoming signals are encoded with preprogrammed queries and prompts that are displayed on a display device on the emergency communication device. The outgoing signals are encoded with location coordinates of the device and preprogrammed messages that respond to queries encoded in the incoming signals.

Abstract: An apparatus and method integrates cellular technology, global positioning system (GPS) technology and satellite radio technology. The components of the apparatus share resources, such as a power, dual GPS/satellite antennae, display screen and controls. The system provides an “on-demand” back channel, such as via the nationwide cellular phone network, that allows a satellite radio subscriber to order data on demand from the satellite radio provider, such as a particular list of songs or travel information. The invention utilizes the existing satellite radio infrastructure which is capable of delivering large amounts of streaming on-demand customized programming and information across a satellite channel to a subscriber's satellite radio decoder. By effectively utilizing the growth and momentum of satellite radio technology, the invention introduces new options for location based services (LBS).
