Abstract: Tool monitoring systems and beacon devices used in the tool monitoring systems are provided. The tool monitoring systems permits one or more beacon devices to upload tool information to a cloud-based computing system either directly or indirectly. Direct communication between the beacon devices and the cloud-based computing system 12 utilizes a communication module and a server. Indirect communication between the beacon devices and the cloud-based computing system utilizes a mobile application running on a mobile computing device or platform and a web services running on the server. The beacon devices are worn by a tool user or installed in a fixed location and communicate with one or more tools to retrieve tool information from the one or more tools and upload the tool information to the cloud-based computing system's database.

Abstract: A tool tracking system including a location module, configured to receive location information used to determine a tool's location and a communication module configured to communicate with at least one of a mobile computing device and a cloud-based computing system. Upon a triggering event, the communication module transmits at least one of the received location information and the tool's location to the at least one mobile computing device and the cloud-based computing system.

Abstract: An emergency lighting system including a light source, a variable constant current drive, an emergency alarm, and a controller. The light source includes a first light channel that produces light at a first correlated color temperature and a second light channel that produces light at a second correlated color temperature that is less than the first correlated color temperature. The variable constant current drive is configured to supply DC current to the first light channel and the second light channel. The emergency alarm is configured to be triggered upon detecting the presence of an emergency condition. The controller is configured to determine whether the emergency alarm is triggered, increase the DC current supplied to the first light channel when the emergency alarm is not triggered, and decrease the DC current supplied to the first light channel when the emergency alarm is triggered.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides embodiments of mobile devices designed to be worn by a person and configured to detect when another mobile device is within a predefined distance and to provide the wearer with an indication that another mobile device is within the predefined distance. The mobile device includes a sealed housing, a clip member, a UWB detector and at least one indicator. The housing has a front housing portion, a rear housing portion and at least one cavity for receiving internal components. The clip member includes a mounting bracket used to affix the clip member to either the front housing portion or the rear housing portion, and a clip is used to permit mobile device to be worn by a person. The UWB detector circuit is located within the at least one cavity and receives signals from at least one other mobile device. The UWB detector circuit also calculates a distance between the mobile device and the at least one other mobile device.
