CareBand® Secures New U.S. Patent for Tri-Radio Wearable Architecture Enabling "Everywhere" Low-Power Tracking
CHICAGO, July 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- CareBand, Inc. today announced the award of U.S. Patent 12,298,410, "Wireless Devices, Systems and Methods for Long-Range Radio-Frequency Location Tracking of Objects." The patent protects core logic that lets a single wearable roam automatically among Bluetooth®?Low?Energy (BLE), nationwide low-power wide-area networks (LPWAN), and direct-to-satellite links, all while using very little battery power. With this latest grant, CareBand's portfolio grows to 16 issued patents that stretch back to 2014.
Why this matters now
-- Ubiquitous coverage is finally economical. Global LPWAN revenues are
projected to top US?$48?billion in 2025 and grow 8-fold by 2030 as
logistics, healthcare, and utilities connect mobile assets at scale.
(Mordor Intelligence)
-- Space becomes the new cell tower. Multiple mobile operators completed
direct-to-orbit voice and data trials over the past year, showing that
mass-market devices can now reach satellites when terrestrial service
disappears. (The Verge)
-- Bluetooth is breaking its 30-foot leash through mesh. With upgrades like
BLE?Mesh?1.1, swarms of low-power beacons now knit building- to
neighborhood-scale coverage without costly gateways. (Electronic Design)
"Back in 2014 we set out to build a discreet wearable for people living with dementia. One that could stay connected to a bedside beacon, then hop to a nationwide low-power network and, if needed, straight to space," said Adam Russek-Sobol, founder and CEO of CareBand. "A decade of R&D later, the market has caught up--and this patent secures the hand-off logic that keeps people and assets visible when legacy tags go dark."
What the patent covers
-- Tri-radio decision engine that chooses the cheapest, lowest-energy path,
BLE indoors, LPWAN in towns, satellite in the wilderness.
-- Adaptive quality-of-service (QoS) and on-device analytics that
prioritise critical health or safety data when bandwidth is scarce.
-- Beacon-defined geofences: caregivers or fleet managers drop beacons to
set safe zones, no wiring required.
-- Alert feedback loop: haptic, light, or audible cues on the wearable plus
real-time alerts to any web-connected dashboard.
Collaboration & Licensing
CareBand is actively engaging chipset vendors, device makers, and network operators to license the company's tri-radio IP or co-develop next-generation safety wearables and asset tags. To start a conversation, email sales@careband.co.
