  • Patent number: 8810398
    Abstract: A container monitoring system can generally comprise a first door controller, a second door controller, and a controller module. The first door controller module can be disposed in communication with a controller module. The first door controller module can be configured to receive a first random generated code from the controller module and further configured to store the first random generated code. The second door controller module can be disposed in communication with the controller module. The second door controller module can be configured to receive a second random generated code from the controller module and further configured to store the second random generated code. The controller module can be configured to separately interrogate the first door controller and the second door controller and configured to establish an alarm condition based on one or more signals received from the first door controller and the second door controller.

  • Patent number: 6154772
    Abstract: A novel digital video and data delivery system makes possible the delivery of digital video content, bi-directional data services such as Internet data, and plain old telephone service (POTS) to an end user over a communications channel. The channel is typically the copper wire pair that extends between a telephone company central office and a residential premises, but may be any communication medium that supports the communication of compressed digital video, bi-directional data, such as Internet data, and POTS, and indeed, may be a wireless connection. The digital video and data delivery system capitalizes on a bus, or broadcast backplane, created by circuitry contained within the central office. The broadcast backplane enables a plurality of video program data to be available to each end user, and allows a plurality of end users access to a plurality of video programming content without the necessity of delivering the entire program content to each end user.
