The patent US12074950B2 describes an intermediary computer system designed to enhance data communication between Internet of Things (IoT) devices and multiple cloud-based computer systems. The system utilizes one or more processors to facilitate the exchange of data packages through various communication channels, including RFID, Bluetooth, and cellular networks. It allows authorized users to configure time-based mappings, enabling the IoT device to connect to different cloud systems at specified times. The intermediary system can store and manage variable mappings based on time, load conditions, and content types, ensuring efficient data forwarding and reception between the IoT device and the selected cloud systems.

Additionally, the patent outlines methods for implementing these functionalities, including receiving configuration commands from authorized users for both individual IoT devices and groups of devices. The system can adapt to changing conditions by amending mappings based on new time-based or content-dependent requirements. This flexibility allows for optimized data handling, ensuring that the IoT devices receive appropriate configuration data or commands from the cloud systems based on real-time conditions and predefined mappings. Overall, the intermediary computer system aims to streamline communication processes in IoT applications, enhancing interoperability and responsiveness in cloud-based environments.
