Abstract
A wearable device includes a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag having a memory that stores identification information. The wearable device also has a power harvesting circuit configured to harness power from electromagnetic radiation. Further, the wearable device has a sensor coupled to the power harvesting circuit and configured to utilize the power to monitor a condition of the wearable device. Even further, the wearable device has a microcontroller coupled to the sensor and configured to write data indicative of the condition to the memory of the RFID tag, wherein the RFID tag is configured to transmit the identification information and the data in response to receipt of the electromagnetic radiation from an RFID reader.
Claims20
A wearable device, comprising:
- one or more light emitters;
- and
- wherein the wearable device is configured to control at least one light emitter of the one or more light emitters to emit light of a first characteristic in response to receipt of respective electromagnetic radiation from a first interactive element and to emit light of a second characteristic in response to receipt of respective electromagnetic radiation from a second interactive element, wherein the first characteristic and the second characteristic are different from one another.
A system, comprising:
- a device configured to be worn or carried by a user and comprising:
- one or more light emitters;
- and
- a communication component;
- and
- a computing system comprising:
- a processor system comprising one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor system, cause the processor system to determine a position of the device based on respective electromagnetic radiation provided by the communication component, based on light emitted by the one or more light emitters, or both.
A system, comprising:
- a device configured to be worn or carried by a user and comprising:
- a first communication component;
- and
- a second communication component;
- a first reader configured to communicate with the first communication component via respective electromagnetic radiation at a first frequency range;
- a second reader configured to communicate with the second communication component via respective electromagnetic radiation at a second frequency range;
- and
- a computing system communicatively coupled to the first reader and the second reader and comprising:
- a processor system comprising one or more processors;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor system, cause the processor system to determine a position of the device based on respective electromagnetic radiation transmitted from the first communication component to the first reader, respective electromagnetic radiation transmitted from the second communication component to the second reader, or both.
