Abstract
An alert system and associated method protect against accidental loss or intentional theft of personal valuables. Users may define a set of corrective actions associated with each satellite item registered with the alert system. The alert system is generally comprised of a plurality of alert devices, a plurality of remote sensors, and at least one processing unit. When a satellite item provided with the alert device becomes separated from its user, the item alerts the user of an impending loss or separation prior to the occurrence of such an event.
