Abstract
A signal-generated locator for locating at least one device can include a transmitter configured to transmit at least one first signal and a receiver configured to receive at least one second signal. In addition, the signal-generated locator can have a first processing unit configured to process the at least one second signal with respect to the at least one first signal, and a display unit configured to display information processed by the processing unit, wherein the information is related to at least one device.
Claims58
A method of displaying information related to at least one device, said method comprising the steps of:
- activating a signal-generated locator;
- transmitting at least one first signal from the signal-generated locator;
- receiving at least one second signal at the signal-generated locator;
- processing the at least one second signal with respect to the at least one first signal;
- and
- displaying information related to at least one device.
A signal-generated locator for locating at least one device, said signal-generated locator comprising:
- a transmitter configured to transmit at least one first signal;
- a receiver configured to receive at least one second signal;
- a first processing unit configured to process the at least one second signal with respect to the at least one first signal;
- a display unit configured to display information processed by the processing unit, wherein the information is related to at least one device.
A system of displaying information related to at least one device, said system comprising:
- an activating means for activating a signal-generated locator;
- a transmitting means for transmitting at least one first signal from the signal-generated locator;
- a receiving mean for receiving at least one second signal at the signal-generated locator;
- a processing means for processing the at least one second signal with respect to the at least one first signal;
- and
- a display means for displaying information related to at least one device.
