Abstract:
An equipment management system includes an equipment apparatus installed in a construction and configured to operate in accordance with details of manipulation, an equipment manipulation terminal including an equipment communication unit and configured to manipulate the equipment apparatus, and an external manipulation terminal including an external communication unit configured to communicate with the equipment manipulation terminal. The external manipulation terminal is configured to manipulate the equipment apparatus indirectly. When the equipment apparatus is manipulated by the external manipulation terminal, the external manipulation terminal transmits details of manipulation to the equipment manipulation terminal, and the equipment manipulation terminal manipulates the equipment apparatus in accordance with the details of manipulation received from the external manipulation terminal.
Abstract:
In the present invention, a household appliance is controlled in accordance with a state of a user. An agent server (1) in accordance with the present invention includes a setting management section (21) which identifies a mode corresponding to a state of the user and a process executing section (22) which executes a process in accordance with the mode identified by the setting management section (21).
Abstract:
A remote control for a smart TV or a set-top box is disclosed. The remote control includes a capacitive fingerprint sensor, a processor and a wireless transmitter. The present invention takes advantages of the capacitive fingerprint sensor so that every user's personal data and corresponding setting for the smart TV or set-top box are available. Channel (or web-site) content rating can be achieved. Purchasing over TV can be safer than ever.
Abstract:
A method used in a remote control system for remotely controlling an appliance by execution of a remote control command contained in a control program stored in an operation terminal device, by which: a first identifier is acquired at a first time point (S801), the first identifier being unique to a portable medium located close to an operation terminal device serving as a remote controller for the appliance; the first identifier is embedded into the control program (S802); a second identifier is acquired at a second time point later than the first time point (S803), the second identifier being unique to a portable medium located close to the operation terminal device serving as the remote controller for the appliance; whether the first identifier matches the second identifier is determined (S804); and remote control of the appliance is prohibited when the first identifier does not match the second identifier (S805).
Abstract:
A control unit (101), such as a remote control device, includes a profile selector (104). The profile selector (104), which may be a single profile selector button integrated into the side or top of a remote control, allows quick and simple selection of an operating mode or user profile. The control unit (101) includes an indicator (107) that provides indicia of the currently selected mode or profile. Examples of indicators include multicolored lights and display devices. Where multicolored lights are used as the indicator (107), actuation of the profile selector (104) causes the indicator (107) to change from a first color to a second color.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for remote controlling of vehicles are described. Systems and methods may include a plug and play device. Systems may include a receiver; a programmable microprocessor in communication with the receiver; and a switch in communication with the programmable microprocessor. The switch may operate one or more systems of the vehicle. The receiver may send a signal to the preprogrammed microprocessor upon receiving an incoming communication from a network. The signal may include a unique user identifier, and the preprogrammed microprocessor may read and process the unique user identifier to control one or more vehicle systems.
Abstract:
An NFC-enabled electronic device and a method for operating the same are discussed. The method according to an embodiment includes performing, by the electronic device, tagging with a first external device to establish communication with the first external device; receiving, by the electronic device, at least one of device information and user information from the first external device through the communication; and transmitting, by the electronic device, a remote control signal to at least one second external device, based on the at least one of the device information and the user information.
Abstract:
A system for managing a vehicle door includes an authenticator configured to perform authentication based on information received from a smart key. A communicator is configured to receive information of a smart phone. A controller is configured to receive information on whether or not the vehicle door is opened from the authenticator and the communicator. An outputting unit is configured to manage driving history information of a driver by receiving an operation signal and the information of the smart phone from the communicator and display the driving history information on a screen.

Abstract:
A system, method, and device for monitoring implant sensor data over a cellular network includes a portable computing device, a controller, and an orthopaedic prosthesis configured to communicate with the controller over the cellular network. The orthopaedic prosthesis includes one or more implant sensors configured to generate implant sensor data and a cellular transmitter or transceiver configured to transmit the implant sensor data to the controller over the cellular network. The controller or the orthopaedic prosthesis may initiate the cellular communication. The implant sensor data is transmitted to the portable computing device by the controller. The portable computing device is configured to display the implant sensor data, or indicia thereof, to a user. The portable computing device and controller may also be used to update one or more programs executed by the orthopaedic prosthesis.
