SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING MOVABLE OBJECTS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of locating and pairing a plurality of movable objects, comprising:
- determining a proposed pairing of a first movable object and a second movable object;
sending a notification to proceed with a coupling of the first movable object and the second movable object based on the proposed pairing; and
confirming the coupling based on detecting that the first movable object and the second movable object are moving in unison.

19. A non-transitory storage medium containing computer software encoded in machine-readable format for locating and pairing a plurality of movable objects, the computer software comprising a set of computer instructions for:
-
determining a proposed pairing of a first movable object and a second movable object; sending a notification to proceed with a coupling of the first movable object and the second movable object based on the proposed pairing; and confirming the coupling based on detecting that the first movable object and the second movable object are moving in unison.

20. A system for locating and pairing a plurality of movable objects, comprising:
-
means for determining a proposed pairing of a first movable object and a second movable object; means for sending a notification to proceed with a coupling of the first movable object and the second movable object based on the proposed pairing; and means for confirming the coupling based on detecting that the first movable object and the second movable object are moving in unison.

21. A method of managing a plurality of movable objects, comprising:
-
determining a previous coupling between a first movable object and a second movable object; and confirming whether the previous coupling between the first movable object and the second movable object still exists based on, at least in part, detecting whether the first movable object and the second movable object are moving in unison. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24)
