Embodiment 1

[0098] Example 1: Digital Thermometer

[0099] In one embodiment, a digital thermometer can be configured to include a digital ultrasound modem. In this example, a Texas Instrument MSP430 digital thermometer based digital thermometer has been adapted to include firmware so that it can transmit temperature readings (digital data) ultrasonically to a mobile telecommunications device (eg, iPhone). While this embodiment is specific to the APE4110 microprocessor (a variant of the MSP430 microprocessor from Texas Instruments), other microprocessors may be used and similarly adapted in firmware, software and / or hardware in order to function.

[0100] Typically, a device collects data (eg, a thermometer temperature reading) and encodes it for ultrasonic transmission. An encoded signal may include error checking (eg, CRC encoding, Hamming code, etc.), and may be encrypted. For example, the data may be data encrypted, eg, using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). US Patents 5,...
