Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system are provided for monitoring environment parameters of critical facilities. A Remote Area Modular Monitoring (RAMM) apparatus is provided for monitoring environment parameters of critical facilities. The RAMM apparatus includes a battery power supply and a central processor. The RAMM apparatus includes a plurality of sensors monitoring the associated environment parameters and at least one communication module for transmitting one or more monitored environment parameters. The RAMM apparatus is powered by the battery power supply, controlled by the central processor operating a wireless sensor network (WSN) platform when the facility condition is disrupted. The RAMM apparatus includes a housing prepositioned at a strategic location, for example, where a dangerous build-up of contamination and radiation may preclude subsequent manned entrance and surveillance.

Abstract: The invention describes a method of actuating a switch (S) between a device (Di) to be controlled and a power supply (P), which method comprises the steps of generating a first electrical signal (14) in a remote control unit (10) and converting the first electrical signal (14) into electromagnetic radiation (EM) by means of a first transmitting antenna (Ti) of the remote control unit (10). A first detecting antenna (Ri) of a remote control interface module (20) of the device (Di) to be controlled detects the electromagnetic radiation (EM) to obtain a second electrical signal (24), which is passively converted into a switch actuating signal (25). The switch actuating signal (25) is actuated to switch the device (Di) to be controlled between an operating mode in which current is drawn from the power supply (P) by the device (Di) during operation, and an inactive mode in which the device (Di) is completely disconnected from the power supply (P) so that no current is drawn by the device (Di). The invention further describes a system (1) for actuating a switch (S) between a device (Di) to be controlled and a power supply (P). The invention also describes a remote control interface module (20) and a remote control unit (10).

Abstract: A mobile device, e.g. a remote control, that communicates with a remote device. The device is controlled by a battery providing power for electronic circuits and components contained within the hand held remote control device. A battery monitoring device measures the voltage of the battery. A memory device saves the data generated by the battery monitoring device indicating the voltage of the battery. A transmission device transmits a notification to the display device when the voltage of the battery decreases to some predetermined level. The display device may receive the notification of a low battery from the hand held device. An application contained within the display device or the remote control displays a visual indication on the display device to the user indicating that the battery in the hand held device is low and requires recharging.

Abstract: A remote controller 10 sets, in step S1, a period of time Tx in which a reception mode is maintained after an instruction is transmitted. A generated instruction is transmitted to a communication module 20 (in step S3). The communication module 20 converts the received instruction into a control signal and transmits the signal to an electronic apparatus 30 (in step S4). After a process is executed in response to an instruction, the electronic apparatus 30 outputs information to be returned to the remote controller 10 to the communication module 20 (in step S5). The communication module 20 transmits information (in step S6). The information is received within the period of time Tx after the instruction is transmitted. Thereafter, the reception mode is cancelled (in step S7). After the reception mode is cancelled, the remote controller 10 returns to a sleep mode and operates with the minimum power.
