`
`ABSTRACT
`
`The present invention generally relates to systems, methods
`and applications utilizing the convergence of any combina
`tion of the following three technologies: Wireless positioning
`or localization technology, Wireless communications tech
`nology and sensor technology. In particular, certain embodi
`ments of the present invention relate to a remote device that
`includes a sensor for determining or measuring a desired
`parameter, a receiver for receiving position data from the
`Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite system, a proces
`sor for determining Whether or not alert conditions are present
`and a Wireless transceiver for transmitting the measured
`parameter data and the position data to a central station, such
`as an application service provider (ASP). The ASP, in turn,
`may communicate the measured data, position data and noti
`?cation of any alerts to an end user via an alert device. The
`present invention also relates to various applications and sys
`tems utilizing the capabilities of such a device.

`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`1. Field of the Invention
`[0002]
`In general, the present invention relates to systems
`[0003]
`and methods for monitoring and tracking individuals and
`objects and to business applications utilizing such systems
`and methods.
`
`2. Description of RelatedArt
`[0004]
`[0005] Various systems for localizing and sensing animate
`and inanimate objects are known in the art. Such systems,
`however, are generally inflexible and ineflicient. More spe-
`cifically, existing systems suffer from being incapable of
`being efliciently utilized for multiple business application
`having different
`types of remote monitoring needs and
`devices. Furthermore, many such systems are generally inca-
`pable of generating alert messages based on both simple and
`complex alert parameters. As such, there exists a need for
`improved localization and sensing system having a flexible
`structure.
`
`SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
`
`[0006] The present invention satisfies the foregoing and
`other needs. Embodiments ofthe invention generally relate to
`systems, methods and applications utilizing the convergence
`of any combination ofthe following three technologies: wire-
`less positioning or localization technology, wireless commu-
`nications technology and sensor technology. In particular,
`certain embodiments of the present invention relate to a
`remote device that includes a sensor for determining or mea-
`suring a desired parameter, a receiver for receiving position
`data from the Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite sys-
`tem, a processor for determining whether or not one or more
`alert conditions are satisfied and a wireless transceiver for
`
`transmitting the measured parameter data and the position
`data to a central station, such as an application service pro-
`vid
