System and method for wireless AED docking
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a removable interface module for an automated external defibrillator (AED), the removable interface module comprising;
a first processor;
a first memory and first low-power radio transceiver communicatively coupled with the first processor and configured to receive status information from the AED without requiring power from an AED battery;
a wireless power receiver; and
a rechargeable energy storage device electrically coupled with the wireless power receiver and configured to receive power wirelessly for the removable interface module, wherein the removable interface module is configured to reversibly couple to and decouple from the AED; and
a wireless dock for the AED comprising;
a second processor;
a second memory and second low-power radio transceiver communicatively coupled with the second processor and configured to receive the status information from the removable interface module when the AED is powered off and transmit the status information through a networking interface; and
a wireless power transmitter configured to be coupled with a power source and transmit the power wirelessly to the removable interface module when the removable interface module is within range,wherein the wireless dock is physically separate from the removable interface module and physically separate from the AED, andwherein the removable interface module is configured to send the status information to the wireless dock without requiring the power from the AED battery.

12. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, at a removable interface module for an automated external defibrillator (AED), status information from the AED without requiring power from an AED battery, wherein the removable interface module is configured to reversibly couple to and decouple from the AED and comprises a first memory and a first low-power radio transceiver coupled to a first processor and further comprises a rechargeable energy storage device electrically coupled to a wireless power receiver; receiving the power wirelessly, for the removable interface module, at the rechargeable energy storage device electrically coupled to the wireless power receiver; transmitting the status information from the removable interface module to a wireless dock without requiring the power from the AED battery, wherein the wireless dock is physically separate from the removable interface module and physically separate from the AED; receiving the status information from the removable interface module, at the wireless dock when the AED is powered off, wherein the wireless dock comprises a second memory and the second low-power radio transceiver communicatively coupled to a second processor; transmitting the status information, by the second low-power radio transceiver, through a networking interface of the wireless dock; and transmitting the power wirelessly to the removable interface module by a wireless power transmitter of the wireless dock when the removable interface module is within range, wherein the wireless power transmitter is configured to be coupled with a power source. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
