Patent Images
1. A system of tracking an airbag, comprising:
- a server;
a parts database communicatively coupled to the server; and
a number of user devices communicatively coupled to the server;
in which the server collects data associated with the airbag, the data associated with the airbag describing a family of airbags the airbag belongs to as a member, andproviding alerts to a status of the airbag to the server based on statuses of each of the family member airbags, wherein the alerts are provided when at least one of the user devices scans an identification of a family member airbag alerting a user of the airbag that the status of the airbag has changed because the status of a family member airbag has changed; and
in which the server receives and automatically updates status data associated with the family of airbags in the parts database when the status of the family member airbag is updated from the at least one of user devices.

21. A system of tracking an airbag, comprising:
-
a server; a parts database communicatively coupled to the server; and a number of user devices communicatively coupled to the server; in which the server collects data associated with the airbag, the data associated with the airbag originating from one of the number of user devices after a scan of an identification of the airbag and describing a destruction date of the airbag;
wherein the collected data further comprises data describing a number of familiarly related airbags the airbag is associated with; andin which the server receives and automatically updates status data associated with the airbag in the parts database when the data associated with the airbag is collected; and in which each of a status of each of the number of familiarly related airbags is updated automatically by the server when it has been determined by the server that the updated status of the airbag detrimentally effects the status of each of the number of familiarly related airbags;
an alert of the status change to each of the number of familiarly related airbags being sent out from the server.

22. A system of tracking an airbag, comprising:
-
a server; a parts database communicatively coupled to the server; and a number of user devices communicatively coupled to the server; in which the server collects data associated with a family of airbags of which the airbag is a member; and in which the server receives and updates, in the parts database, status data associated with the airbag from a user using a first of the number of user devices based on a status change of any one of the other airbags of the family of airbags, the ability of the user to update the status data being dependent upon a type of user associated to the user by the system; and in which the server broadcasts an alert regarding each of the other airbags in the family of airbags to any one of the number of user devices indicating the status of the airbag and, consequently, the status of the other airbags of the family of airbags has been changed.
