Abstract

A remote control identification system includes a first housing member. At least one wireless signal receiving unit is disposed at least one of in and on the first housing member. An at least one of a visual and an audio device is disposed in or on the housing member in communication with the signal receiving unit for alerting an owner of such objects of their presence upon receipt of a signal by the signal receiving unit. A first power source is connected to each of the wireless receiving unit and the at least one of a visual and an audio device for supplying power thereto. A second housing member is also provided. There is at least one wireless signal transmitter for supplying such signal to the signal receiving unit disposed one of in or on the second housing member. A second power source is connected to such wireless signal transmitter for supplying power thereto.

Claims

1. A remote control identification system for positive identification of various preselected personal objects, said remote control identification system comprising:

(a) a first housing member having a first predetermined size and a first predetermined shape;

(b) at least one wireless signal receiving unit disposed at least one of in and on said first housing member;

(c) at least one of a visual and an audio means disposed at least one of in and on said housing member in communication with said signal receiving unit for alerting an owner of such preselected objects of their presence upon receipt of a signal by said signal receiving unit;

(d) a first power source connected to each of said at least one wireless receiving unit and said at least one of a visual and an audio means for supplying power thereto;

(e) a second housing member having a second predetermined size and a second predetermined shape;

(f) at least one wireless signal transmitting means for supplying said signal to be sent to said signal receiving unit disposed at least one of in and on said second housing member; and

(g) a second power source connected to said at least one wireless signal transmitting means for supplying power thereto.
