1. A system comprising:
- a master object identification tag associated with a corresponding set of one or more object identification tags; and
an object identification discrimination module configured to (i) detect object identification tags including the master object identification tag and (ii) generate an alert in response to determining that the master object identification tag has been detected and that at least one object identification tag of the corresponding set of one or more object identification tags associated with the master object identification tag has not been detected, wherein the alert identifies the at least one non-detected object identification tag, andwherein the object identification discrimination module comprises a switch configured to selectively configure the object identification discrimination module into a search mode, wherein in the search mode, the object identification discrimination module is configured to generate an alert in response to being physically moved to within a defined proximity of the at least one non-detected object identification tag.

Abstract
A system, device and method for reminding a user of a forgotten article are disclosed. According to one aspect, a reminder system includes an object identification discrimination module operable to identify at least one object identification tag proximally located to the object identification discrimination module in response to activating a discrimination operating mode of the object identification discrimination module. The reminder system further includes at least one object identification tag identifiable by the object identification discrimination module when proximally located to the object identification discrimination module.

14. A method comprising:
-
detecting a master object identification tag, wherein the master object identification tag is associated with a corresponding set of one or more object identification tags; generating an alert in response to determining that at least one object identification tag of the corresponding set of one or more object identification tags associated with the master object identification tag has not been detected, wherein the alert identifies the at least one non-detected object identification tag; entering a search mode; and while in the search mode, generating an alert in response to an object identification tag identifier being physically moved to within a predetermined proximity of a the at least one non-detected object identification tag. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. A system comprising:
-
a first input configured to receive a motion detection indication signal from a motion detector; an object identification tag identifier configured to detect a master object identification tag and to detect a corresponding set of one or more object identification tags associated with the master object identification tag; a processor configured to activate the object identification tag identifier in response to the motion detection indication signal, and to generate an alert in response to determining that the master object identification tag has been detected and that at least one object identification tag of the corresponding set of one or more object identification tags associated with the master object identification tag has not been detected, wherein the alert identifies the at least one non-detected object identification tag; and a switch configured to selectively configure the system into a search mode, wherein in the search mode, the processor is configured to generate an alert in response to being physically moved to within a defined proximity of the at least one non-detected object identification tag. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)
