Latest Patents
Eckert's latest patents include a "Capability addressable network and method therefor." This invention discloses a wireless, peer-to-peer capability addressable network that accommodates any number of peers. The network connections are formed based on proximity between peers and a needs and capabilities evaluation. Wireless communications occur at a sufficiently low power to create a detection zone of less than about five meters for many peers.
Another significant patent is the "Method for selecting virtual end nodes in an RF network." This method indicates in routing information that the routing information is a "special access" to a virtual end node. An RF network device then inserts the identity of the physical end node into user information and includes a filter field for selecting which virtual end node(s) are to respond to the user information. An end node determines whether the user information is intended for it, and if so, it responds to the RF network; otherwise, it ignores the user information.
