Systems and Methods for Networking of Car Seat Monitoring Systems Utilizing a Central Hub

摘要

Systems and methods for monitoring child seats and children in child seats through sensors paired with a central processing hub which in turn relays notifications of conditions to caregivers or other users based on a notification hierarchy and the urgency of the conditions detected.

主权项

1. A system for providing notifications of a condition relating to a child in vehicular child seat, the system comprising:
a sensor detecting a condition relating to a vehicular child seat or a child in said vehicular child seat when said vehicular child seat is installed in a vehicle; a central hub comprising:
a transmitter/receiver receiving from said sensor a first datagram containing information related to said detected condition;a microprocessor;a non-transitory computer-readable medium having programming instructions which, when executed by said microprocessor, cause a second datagram to be formed containing notification information, said notification information based at least in part upon at least some of said information related to said detected condition contained in said first datagram; a notification system receiving from said central hub said second datagram and conveying a notification to a user, said notification based at least in part upon at least some of said notification information in said second datagram.
