Abstract:
A fall protection harness has a magnetic sensor coupled to it, and a computer processor is coupled to the magnetic sensor. Upon damage to the fall protection harness, the magnetic sensor senses the damage, the magnetic sensor generates a first signal to the computer processor, and the computer processor generates a second signal indicating the damage.
Abstract:
A system includes first and second access points. Each access point includes one or more 802.11 wireless radios configured to communicate with a wireless node. The first and second access points are both configured to wirelessly receive first data from the wireless node at substantially a same time and forward the first data. The first and second access points are also both configured to receive second data for the wireless node. The first access point is configured to wirelessly transmit the second data to the wireless node, and the second access point is configured to refrain from transmitting the second data to the wireless node while the first access point is operating properly.

Abstract:
A fall protection harness includes a computer board with a communication device. A computer processor is communicatively coupled to the computer board. The computer board includes unique identification data associated with the fall protection harness and a person. The computer board transmits periodic signals that include data relating to a physical condition of the fall protection harness and the unique identification data. The computer processor receives the periodic signals, and determines a location of the person at a particular time based on the periodic signals.
