Patent ID: 8356068

Claim:
A system for providing interactive training, the system comprising: at least one computer; at least one display coupled to said at least one computer; one or more base stations coupled to said at least one computer; one or more remotes configured for wireless communication with a respective one of said one or more base stations, each of said one or more remotes being operable by a respective trainee of a group of trainees; wherein each of said one or more remotes is defined by a respective remote ID that is unique from the remote ID of any other of said one or more remotes, and wherein the remote ID of each of said one or more remotes is stored in a computer memory of said a respective one of said at least one computer; wherein said one or more base stations includes a respective one of one or more base station ID codes unique from the base station ID codes of all other of said one or more base stations, and said respective one of said one or more base station IDs is stored in a remote memory of each of said one or more remotes, thereby pairing each of said one or more remotes with a respective one of said one or more base stations; wherein said at least one computer includes a computer processor coupled to said computer memory configured for storing a computer software code which, when executed by said computer processor, causes said computer processor to respond to at least one remote signal received from one of said one or more remotes, comprising steps of: determining if said at least one remote signal includes an ID which matches an ID stored in said computer memory of one of said one or more remotes; upon a determination that said at least one remote signal includes an ID which matches an ID stored in said computer memory of one of said one or more remotes, processing said remote signal; and upon a determination that said at least one remote signal does not include an ID which matches an ID stored in said computer memory of one of said one or more remotes, ignoring said remote signal; and wherein said at least one remote includes a remote processor coupled to said remote memory configured for storing a remote software code, which when executed by said remote processor, causes said remote processor to respond to at least one base station signal received from one of said one or more base stations, comprising steps of: determining if said at least one base station signal includes an ID which matches an ID stored in said remote memory of a respective one of said one or more base stations; upon a determination that said at least one base station signal includes an ID which matches an ID stored in said remote memory of a respective one of said one or more base stations, processing said at least one signal; and upon a determination that said at least one base station signal does not include an ID which matches an ID stored in said remote memory of a respective one of said one or more base stations, ignoring said at least one base station signal.
