  • Defining a smart area
    Patent number: 7398090
    Abstract: A smart area is defined in an area having a plurality of nodes. One or more electronic services are operable to be provided in the smart area. Location information for a border of a smart area being defined may be determined using a mobile node or determined using the plurality of nodes. The border for the smart area is defined based on the location information.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 13, 2002
    Date of Patent: July 8, 2008
    Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.
    Inventors: Cyril Brignone, Salil V. Pradhan, Marc McMeachern
  • Dynamic generation of a networked information resource
    Patent number: 7370077
    Abstract: A networked information resource generation system includes a wireless network (10), a transceiver (12) and mobile devices (14a-c). The mobile devices (14a-e) share information over the network (10) via the transceiver (12). The information shared over the network (10) is displayed on the mobile devices (14a-e) web-page (71) which is dynamically updated with information from the mobile devices (14a-e).

  • Tracking electronic devices
    Patent number: 7350715
    Abstract: Tracking electronic devices that are equipped with tracking tags and that are stored in designated locations. The position of a reading device is monitored as it traverses the designated locations of the electronic devices and is activated to interrogate the tracking tags of the electronic devices. Identification data from the tracking tags is collected to enable determining the presence and location of the electronic devices, based on the monitored position of the reading devices.

  • Tracking electronic devices
    Patent number: 6796506
    Abstract: Tracking electronic devices that are equipped with tracking tags and that are stored in designated locations. Reading devices are distributed in locations that are recorded and that correspond to the designated locations of the electronic devices. The reading devices are activated to interrogate the tracking tags. Identification data from the tracking tags is collected to enable determining the presence and location of the electronic devices, based on the recorded location of the reading devices.

  • Accurate targeting from imprecise locations
    Patent number: 6708109
    Abstract: Compensation for tolerances inherent in state-of-the-art locating and targeting. Based upon known approximate position and heading of the spotter, and certain data related to objects with the a vision area, an expanded field of vision related to the perspective of a virtual spotter location is generated. Compensation for present location variance due to locator equipment inherent tolerance is provided such that targeting of each object in the vision area can be precisely implemented.
