Abstract: Augmented reality (AR) devices, systems and methods are provided to argument captured images of objects of interest. Image data can be obtained for an object of interest by an imaging device of an ear-worn device worn by a user. Augmenting information is generated to augment onto an image of the object. The augmented image is adjusted based on the detection on whether the object is in a field of view (FOV) of the imaging device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for monitoring and controlling fall protection equipment. For example, the techniques of this disclosure may be used to monitor the connection status of fall protection equipment, e.g., whether or not the fall protection equipment is connected to a support structure. The techniques of this disclosure may also be used to control the operation of the fall protection equipment based on the connection status.

Abstract: Example systems are described in which a personal protective equipment (PPE) respirator device includes one or more sensor arranged within the PPE to detect exhalation breath temperature of a user, and a computing device configured to generate, based on the detected exhalation breath temperature, a metric indicative of core body temperature of the user wearing the PPE.

Abstract: A system includes a plurality of carriers for storing articles sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD), wherein each of the plurality of carriers includes a device having a sensor to sense one or more environmental parameters. At least one of the environmental parameters comprises an ESD parameter. The system also includes a plurality of radio frequency (RF) receiving devices and a coordinator unit to which the RF receiving devices communicate according to a wireless networking standard. The RF receiving devices are configured to obtain data associated with the sensed environmental parameters from the devices of the plurality of carriers via wireless communications according to the wireless networking standard. The plurality of RF receiving devices route the data obtained from the devices of the plurality of carriers to the coordinator unit.
