DETERMINING COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS FOR ASSEMBLING APPROVED PERSONAL PROTECTION CONFIGURATIONS
First Claim
1. A method of determining compatibility of at least a first component and a second component for forming an approved PP configuration as determined by at least one predetermined criterion, the method comprising:
- a) providing a first component with a smart tag configured with first data;
b) providing a second component with a smart tag configured with second data;
c) acquiring the first and second data;
d) determining if the first and second components are compatible to be assembled as an approved PP configuration by processing the acquired first and second data in a data processing system against a predetermined criterion.

Abstract
This disclosure relates generally to methods and systems for determining whether at least a first component and a second component of a personal protection (PP) configuration are compatible so as to be assembled into an approved PP configuration, responsive to being compared against at least one predetermined criterion. Included is a smart tag for each of the first and second components. The first and second smart tags include respective first and second data. A data acquiring system is provided for acquiring the first and second data and a data processing system processes the acquired first and second data for determining if the first and second components are compatible to be assembled as an approved PP configuration.
