Abstract:
A communication and asset locating and tracking system is provided by a wireless high resolution locating and tracting system having a plurality of receivers that are located in different locations in a facility, such as floors, rooms, corridors, common areas and portions thereof within the facility, the locating system is linked to a wireless communication system having a plurality of access points and voice-activated handfree communicators. By issuing a voice command to the communicator, the location of an asset is determined by the asset location system.
Abstract:
A plug (20, 450) and a communication module (26, 430, 480) communicate wirelessly. The plug (20, 450) includes prongs (32, 34, 36, 442) that couple to sockets (38, 488) of a power outlet (28, 428, 486) to receive power for a device (22) associated with the plug (20, 450). The plug (20, 450) carries circuitry (24) that communicates wirelessly with circuitry (68, 172) of the communication module (26, 430, 480). The communication module (26, 430, 480) is located near the power outlet (28, 428, 429, 492) in some embodiments.
