Estimating the term…
A method, system and computer program product for adaptively tracking the position of an entry portal, such as an automatic garage door. In accordance with the present invention a transmitter assembly senses and transmits the sensed position of the door position in a periodic manner at a predetermined transmit interval. A receiver assembly including a receiver module receives the transmitted door position signals and synchronizes the activation of the receiver module with the transmit interval such that the receiver receives the door position signals transmitted at the predetermined transmit interval. A receiver output indicator is then updated in accordance with the entry portal position determined by the received door position signal.
A method for adaptively tracking the position of an entry portal, wherein the sensed position of the entry portal position is transmitted at a predetermined transmit interval, said method comprising:
A system for adaptively tracking the position of an entry portal, wherein the sensed position of the entry portal position is transmitted at a predetermined transmit interval, said system comprising:
A computer program product residing on a computer-readable medium for adaptively tracking the position of an entry portal, wherein the sensed position of the entry portal position is transmitted at a predetermined transmit interval, said computer program product having computer-executable instructions for performing a method comprising:
