A method for evaluating and/or influencing the driving behavior of a driver of a motor vehicle, involving a motor vehicle, in particular in local public transport or in inner-city traffic, preferably for use in vehicle fleets, is designed in such a manner that at least one parameter which describes the driving mode is determined, wherein the position of the gas pedal over time is determined as parameter, and wherein the state of the driving behavior, based on the determined position of the gas pedal, is visually displayed to the vehicle driver by means of a display system in the motor vehicle. Also disclosed is a corresponding device.

The invention relates to a system for customized manufacture of a wearable and/or medical product, said system comprising a scan unit for storing and transferring a digital representation of a body or part thereof of one or more users, a manufacturing unit of one or more providers configured to manufacture said wearable and/or medical product in accordance with geometric characteristics of said digital representation and a customized product selection platform comprising a user database, a product database and a matching and/or configurator engine. In some embodiments the invention relates to corresponding systems and methods for customized selection and production of personalized items from multiple providers using centralized user profiles based on 3D digital representations of a user's body or parts thereof.

System for customized manufacture of wearable or medical products

A method and apparatus for proximity sensing is described and illustrated. In one embodiment, the invention is an apparatus. The apparatus includes a processor. The apparatus also includes a memory coupled to the processor. The apparatus further includes a radio frequency interface coupled to the processor. The apparatus also includes an antenna coupled to the radio frequency interface. The memory embodies an identifier of an associated item along with specific information related to the associated item. The memory also embodies instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to exchange the identifier with similar apparatuses through the radio frequency interface and antenna and cause the processor to compare the specific information with information received from the similar apparatuses.

Proximity sensing

Techniques are provided for document management, which may occur at a physical document, at a remote location, or at a combination thereof. Document management at a physical document may include sensing a state of a document, generating a signal representing the document state, determining the document state based on the signal, and generating a wireless message representing the document state. Document management at a remote location may include storing non-physical versions of documents, receiving state data for physical versions of the documents, associating the state data with the appropriate non-physical versions, and managing access to the non-physical versions and the state data.

Document management

A system to monitor item placement and item movement on surfaces includes an identification system embedded in one or more surfaces and a computer. The identification system periodically scans the surfaces to generate data related to items placed on the surfaces. The data includes item type, item location on each surface, and number of items placed on each surface. The computer receives and processes the data to monitor item placement and item movement on the surfaces.

Supply chain management using item detection system

Techniques are provided for object management. In certain implementations, object management includes determining whether a signal representing the presence of at least one object to be monitored has been received and determining whether a signal representing the state of at least one object to be monitored has been received. If a signal representing the presence of at least one object to be monitored has been received, a determination is made as to whether a predetermined quantity of objects is present. If a signal representing the state of at least one object to be monitored has been received, a determination is made as to whether at least one object has a predetermined state.
