Abstract: Various examples are directed to apparatus and methods for deploying wireless control devices in a wireless network. A method includes providing a portable wireless signal strength measurement device configured with one or more wireless interfaces to emulate communication capabilities of a control device. The portable wireless signal strength measurement device is transported to a potential location for placement of the control device, and a control on the measurement device is actuated to trigger communication with a gateway for managing the control device. A response signal is sensed using the portable wireless signal strength measurement device, and a signal strength of the response signal is determined using the measurement device. When the determined signal strength of the response signal is greater than or equal to a programmable threshold, the potential location is selected for placement of the control device.

Abstract: An example of an apparatus for excluding birds from an enclosure may include a laser projector configured to project one or more laser beams and a controller configured to control an activation, a direction, and/or a pattern of the projection of the one or more laser beams. In various embodiment, the control may be configured to receive a switch signal indicating a state of an entrance of the enclosure and to control the projection of the one or more laser beams using the switch signal.

Abstract: A pest detection and notification system includes one or more pest monitors and notification badges or cards. Both the pest monitors and the notification badges are capable of short-range wireless communication. Upon detection of presence of a pest, a pest monitor generates and transmits a wireless pest event message. Any notification badge present within the transmission area of the pest monitor will receive the pest event message. Each notification badge includes one or more pest event indicators, such as an audible indicator, a visible indicator, and/or a vibration motor. Upon receipt of the pest event message, the notification badge activates one or more of the pest event indicators, thus notifying the wearer that a pest presence within the transmission area has been detected.
