Abstract:
A tag is configured to provide information that enables a processor or other computing device to locate the tag and any asset associated with the tag in an area. The tag incorporates a motion sensor responsive to movements of the tag above a predetermined rate and a predetermined magnitude. In response to the movements above the predetermined rate and magnitude, the motion sensor generates a voltage exceeding a predetermined threshold. An energy-saving process exploits the tag's microcontroller's transitions between a “sleep” state and an “awake” state. While asleep, the microcontroller maintains a clock and data in memory, and monitors an input from the motion sensor. In response to voltages at the input over the predetermine threshold, the microcontroller receives signals from one or more nearby beacon nodes in a network operating in the area, process the signals and transmit information based on the processed signals, for a position determination.

Claim (Index 8):
A tag comprising:\n a radio frequency transceiver; a motion sensor responsive to movements of the tag; a power supply; and a microcontroller configured, upon execution of instructions maintained in firmware to:\n in response to a movement detection signal received from the motion sensor indicating a movement by the tag, exit a sleep mode, wherein the sleep mode is a low power consumption mode; \n upon exiting the sleep mode, enter an awake mode, wherein the awake mode is a higher power consumption mode than the sleep mode; \n in the awake mode, set a movement status flag bit indicating a movement of the tag; \n stores a time based on setting of the movement status flags \n return to the sleep mode; \n in response to receipt of a subsequent movement detection signal, enter the awake mode; \n store a subsequent time based on receipt of the subsequent movement detection signal; \n responsive to time between setting of the movement status flag and the subsequent time related to receipt of the subsequent movement detection signal being less than a time threshold, obtain information usable to generate an estimate of a position of the tag; \n transmit the obtained information as a data packet, to a computing device for determination of a position of the tag; \n upon transmission of the data packet, set the movement status flag to indicate no movement; \n exit the awake mode; and \n enter the sleep mode.
