Data transfer system
First Claim
1. A data transfer system comprising:
- a mobile station wearable by a living being and having at least one sensing device for detecting information of the living being corresponding to at least one of physiological information of a living being and information on an environment in which the living being is present, a memory unit for storing the information detected by the sensing device, and a transmitting device for transmitting signals containing the information stored in the memory unit in response to a start command; and
a base station for transmitting the start command to instruct the mobile station to transmit the signals containing the information stored in the memory unit and thereafter receiving the transmitted signals from the mobile station only when the mobile station is within a preselected communication range from the base station.

Abstract
A data transfer system has one or more mobile stations each wearable by a living being for transmitting signals containing physiological information of the living being in response to a start command, and a base station for transmitting the start command to instruct the mobile stations to transmit the signals and thereafter receiving the signals containing the physiological information from the mobile stations. Thus, the mobile stations consume a small amount of power because they only transmit information when requested to do so. A remote computer is connected to the base station for determining a status of the living beings by receiving the physiological information from the base station and analyzing the physiological information.

15. A monitoring system for monitoring a plurality of living beings, comprising:
-
a plurality of wearable monitoring devices each containing one or more sensors for monitoring information of a living being corresponding to at least one of physiological information of the living being and information on an environment in which the living being is present, a memory unit for storing the information detected by the sensor, and a transceiver for transmitting signals containing the information stored in the memory unit in response to a received start command; a base station for transmitting a unique start command to each of the wearable monitoring devices to instruct the monitoring devices to transmit the signals containing the information of the living being stored in the memory unit and thereafter receiving the signals only when each of the wearable monitoring devices is within a preselected communication range from the base station; and a remote computer connectable over a communications medium to the base station for determining a status of the living beings by receiving the information of the living being from the base station and analyzing the information. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29)
