Embodiments of the invention relate to a method and system for programming wireless sensor tags, and such programmed wireless sensor tags. Embodiments of the method and apparatus can be utilized in food service operations, without utilizing a computing device or smartphone for programming the wireless sensor tag. Embodiments relate to a method and system for programming wireless temperature sensor tags, and such programmed wireless temperature sensor tags. Embodiments of the subject method use NFC-enabled cards with Near Field Communications (NFC) technology to quickly and simply program a wireless temperature sensor tag to read, collect, and report the temperature of a food item or ingredient. The use of this method enables food service operators, such as: quick-serve restaurants (QSRs), school cafeterias, and food service departments within supermarkets, to simplify the collection of temperature data within the retail space, as well as throughout the supply chain of products. The present invention also uses a display and at least one button on the wireless sensor tag for programming the wireless sensor tag.

A vehicle assessment analyzer is in communication with a vehicle, via the vehicle network computer and the vehicle communication bus. The vehicle assessment analyzer obtains the vehicle VIN from the vehicle and transmits the VIN to a vehicle assessment analytics server. The vehicle assessment analytics server then determines assessment readings to be performed on the vehicle, such as individual electronic sensors therein, to generate an overall vehicle assessment as compared to other vehicles of similar make, model, etc. These assessment readings are sent to the vehicle assessment analyzer which obtains the associated data and transmits the data back to the server for generation of the overall vehicle assessment. The assessment readings may query the vehicle network computer via standard assessment readings, and heightened assessment readings, and may also query the vehicle communications bus directly thereby obtaining any desired electronic information available from the vehicle.

The invention comprises a unit and system for remote monitoring and controlling of various conditions in a container during cargo. The system includes a local wireless or cable (wired) network with a local station and access points positioned in the vicinity of location of containers, a remote central station connected with the Internet and a container-mounted means for monitoring and control of reefer equipment, each of which includes a processor (CPU) and a transceiver of wireless local communication, a GPS-receiver and a transceiver of cellular communication (with all of them being connected to the said processor). In addition the processor (CPU) of the device is connected to the controller of reefer equipment, while the transceiver of wireless local communication is made so that the creation of Personal Area Network (PAN) with mobile electronic devices (e.g., Notebook, Pocket PC, PDA) is possible, and establishment of wireless communication with a communication gateway of the said local network is also possible.
