Abstract

La présente invention concerne la mise en oeuvre d'un transfert de données concernant des objets par voie électronique, en particulier dans le contexte du transport d'objets via un site de contrôle d'une première zone dans une seconde zone, ainsi que la remise et l'utilisation d'objets, en particulier d'appareils électriques, par ex. dans le cadre de la cession de jouissance. L'objet de la présente invention est d'apporter des solutions grâce auxquelles, par exemple dans le cadre de la remise / cession de marchandises, les obligations, prestations, preuves, processus de coordination et processus de commande associés peuvent être mieux gérés et de manière plus fiable. A cet effet, selon la présente invention, un dispositif de transfert de données associé à un objet, en particulier lié et intégré à cet objet, produit un signal qui, dans un environnement de la marchandise, peut être introduit dans un second dispositif de transfert de données et sur la base d'une observation par traitement du signal d'un événement de réception détecté par le second dispositif de transfert de données, est produit un ensemble de données indicateur dudit objet, une prestation relative à l'objet pouvant alors être coordonnée à partir de cet ensemble de données.
