Abstract
Methods and apparatus for interacting with a tag in a radio target area. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods and systems for monitoring temperature and other environmental conditions in a storage area and displaying environmental conditions as digital content in a user interactive interface based upon energy levels received from a radio target area and content from a sensor generating digital content.
Claims20
A method for interacting with a wireless location node, the method comprising the steps of:
- a) generating positional coordinates for a location of a node based upon wireless communication between the node and two or more wireless transceivers;
- b) associating digital content stored with the positional coordinates of the node;
- c) establishing a radio target area for an energy receiving sensor, said radio target area comprising an area in a field of view of a charged couple device comprising the location of the node;
- d) receiving energy into the energy receiving sensor from the radio target area;
- e) generating a digital representation of the energy received into the energy receiving sensor at an instance in time;
- f) generating a user interactive interface comprising a digital representation of the energy received into the energy receiving sensor at the instance in time and a dynamic portion representative of the location of the node;
- g) receiving a user input into the dynamic portion of the user interactive interface;
- and
- h) based upon the user input received into the dynamic portion of the user interactive interface, displaying the digital content associated with the positional coordinates of the node in the user interactive interface.
