Comprehensive system and method of universal real-time linking of real objects to a machine, network, internet, or software service

摘要

A system for detecting placement or misplacement of an object, comprising: a wireless tag; a first set of instructions which cause a first electronic device (“FED”) associated with the tag to automatically detect signals from the tag, determine a position of the FED, transmit the position and status to an external electronic device (“EED”) in response to the status indicating that the tag and the FED are within a predetermined range, and transmit the position and status to the EED in response to the status indicating that the tag and the FED are outside of the predetermined range; a second set of instructions which cause a second electronic device (“SED”) that is unassociated with the tag to automatically detect signals from the tag, determine a position of the SED, determine an identifier for the tag using the signals, and transmit the position and the identifier to the EED.
