PREDICTIVE GEOFENCE CROSSING
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A predictive geofence alert apparatus comprising:
- an input device that receives first data of a first object;
a database that stores the first data; and
a controller coupled to the input device and the database, based on the first data, the controller predicting a future position of the first object or a time-to-crossing of the first object to a first geo fence using dead reckoning, and generating an alert if the future position of the first object crosses the first geofence or the time-to-crossing is less than a set time.

Abstract
A predictive geofence system predicts a geofence crossing for a distance-horizon and/or a time-horizon. The predictive geofence system includes a predictive geofence platform that predicts future positions of objects, and generates an alert if the predicted future positions of the objects result in a geofence crossing or the predicted future positions cross a geofence in less than a set time.

10. A method for generating a predictive geofence alert comprising:
-
receiving first data of a first device; storing the first data in a database; predicting a future position of the first object or a time-to-crossing of the first object to a first geofence based on dead reckoning; and generating an alert if the future position of the first object crosses the first geofence or the time-to-crossing of the first geofence is less than a set time. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

20. A predictive geofence alert apparatus comprising:
-
receiving means for receiving data; storing means for storing the received data; geofence crossing predicting means for predicting a geofence crossing based on a predicted a future position of an object and/or a geofence; and alert generating means for generating an alert if a geofence crossing is predicted.
