Individual management system
First Claim
1. An individual management system comprising:
- an individual management device configured to be attached to a managed object; and
an individual identification device configured to wirelessly communicate with the individual management device,wherein the individual management device includes a detection portion which comprises a sensor selected from a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, an acceleration sensor, an angular velocity sensor, and a magnetic sensor so that information on surroundings of the managed object is detected by the detection portion,wherein the individual identification device includes a position analysis portion configured to calculate a distance between the individual management device and the individual identification device, andwherein the information on the surroundings of the managed object and the calculated distance between the individual management device and the individual identification device are used to specify a position of the managed object.

Abstract
To provide an individual management system for managing products with the use of an automatic identification technology using a wireless communication device. In the individual management system, an individual management device is attached to a managed object, an individual identification device can wirelessly communicate with the individual management device, and an individual information management device can communicate with the individual identification device. The individual management device includes a detection portion such as a sensor. The individual identification device includes a position analysis portion which calculates a distance between the individual management device and the individual identification device. Information on the distance between the individual management device and the individual identification device, and information from the detection portion included in the individual management device are transmitted to the individual identification device. Accordingly, a system user can specify a position of the individual management device accurately.
