A system and method are described that can help gas stations detect attempted thefts of gas or when there is leakage from a fuel tank or pump. The fuel pump can comprise a payment processing system or is fuel sensor to detect the amount of fuel pumped. The large fuel tank that supplies the fuel pumps can comprise a fuel level sensor to detect how much fuel is being used. The fuel pumps and tanks can send their data to the kiosk or some other location for analysis. If more fuel is being lost from the fuel tank than is being paid for at the pumps, then a theft may be occurring, or there may be fault machinery or leaks.

Coordination of gas pump with tank level sensors for fraud detection

A system and method are described that can remotely track and monitor real-time parameters of electric motors and/or machines. Data such as vibration, temperature, current, location and more can be tracked regarding electric motors and/or machines in factories or other plant locations. The data can be aggregated and compared with failure data. The data can then be used to predict and prevent future failures or to make other predictions that will be helpful regarding servicing and repairs.

Motor fault detection system and method

The invention described is a system and method for tracking assets. Mobile devices on the assets communicate their location to a central station. When the mobile devices are in an area with interference or no network then the mobile devices connect to a base station. The base station in turn can communicate with the central station and report on the locations of mobile devices connected to that base station. The base stations can be placed in areas such as warehouses, mines or other locations.
