Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to an identification and monitoring system for an educational campus that is capable of identifying users, tracking their presence, monitoring their behaviour, and supporting emotional well-being, thereby reducing need for manual supervision and ensuring a safer, more disciplined, and responsive environment.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] In educational campuses, maintaining student discipline, emotional well-being, attendance, and safety is essential for ensuring a productive and secure learning environment. Monitoring the movement of students, verifying their presence in classrooms, and keeping track of their overall activities has become increasingly necessary in modern campuses. Additionally, addressing issues such as stress, distraction during classes, or incidents of bullying or antagonistic behavior is vital for supporting the mental and emotional health of students. With campuses growing larger and student populations increasing, there is a clear requirement for systems that can handle these aspects with minimal human involvement while ensuring accuracy and real-time feedback. Effective tools that help staff manage student identity, location, and behavior efficiently are needed for smoother campus operations.

[0003] Traditionally, institutions have relied on manual attendance systems where students sign a register or where teachers mark attendance during class. In some cases, RFID-based ID cards are used only at main entry points to monitor entry and exit. However, these methods are limited in functionality and are prone to errors, manipulation, and delays. They do not provide continuous monitoring of student presence in different areas of the campus, nor do they allow for real-time verification of identity or location across multiple regions. In terms of behavioral monitoring and emotional assessment, campuses generally depend on visual supervision by teachers or counselors, which is subjective and limited to observation. Manual intervention is not only slow but also ineffective in handling multiple students simultaneously across a large area, making traditional systems unsuitable for addressing today’s campus safety and behavioral challenges.

[0004] US20210085233A1 discloses a wearable device, which includes: a frame adapted to be worn on a body part of a user. The frame includes: one or more sensors configured in a housing and operative to sense one or more parameters associated with the body of the user to generate one or more signals indicative of the one or more sensed parameters when the wearable device is worn; a processor configured in the housing and operatively coupled with the one or more sensors, the processor operative to analyze the one or more signals to extract one or more attributes associated with the user from the one or more signals, wherein the one or more attributes being indicative of emotional states of the user; and a display device configured at a portion of the housing and operatively coupled with the processor, wherein the display device is configured to indicate, based on the extracted one or more attributes of the user, the emotional states of the user.

[0005] US11848102B2 discloses a wearable technology, such as wearable health monitors, and methods of use are provided. In some embodiments, the wearable technology can be worn at the wrist of an individual and can use an accelerometer, pulse oximeter, and electrocardiogram to measure heart rate, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, pulse wave velocity, and activity. This information can then be provided to the individual. The individual can alter their behaviours and relationships with their own health by using features such as notifications and auto-tagging to better understand their own stress, diet, sleep, and exercise levels over various time periods and subsequently make appropriate behavioural changes.

[0006] Conventionally, many devices have been developed to monitor user identity, location, and physiological parameters using wearable technologies, however the devices mentioned in the prior arts have limitations pertaining to multiple monitoring functionalities, limited real-time behavioral and emotional assessment, insufficient spatial tracking within defined premises, and inadequate automated response support for user well-being and security. These devices also often require manual intervention for data analysis and fail to provide continuous, context-aware monitoring in dynamic environments such as educational campuses.

[0007] In order to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, there exists a need in the art to develop a system that requires to be capable of uniquely identifying and continuously monitoring users within a defined area, and assessing their emotional and behavioral states in real-time to improve user safety, focus, and well-being without relying heavily on manual supervision.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION

[0008] The principal object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art.

[0009] An object of the present invention is to develop a system that is capable of enabling accurate identification and monitoring of individuals within a defined campus area in view of helping maintain security and proper access control across the premises.

[0010] Another object of the present invention is to develop a system that is capable of tracking of user presence and movement across specific regions within the campus for efficient movement tracking and attendance monitoring.

[0011] Another object of the present invention is to develop a system that is capable of generating automated alerts when users fail to wear their identification properly or remove it, ensuring adherence to identification protocols and preventing misuse or unauthorized activity.

[0012] Yet another object of the present invention is to develop a system that is capable of monitoring user behaviour and emotional state to support safety and well-being within the campus for early intervention to support mental and emotional wellness of users in real-time.

[0013] The foregoing and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following detailed description of the preferred embodiment as illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[0021] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.

[0022] The present invention relates to an identification and monitoring system for an educational campus that is capable of monitoring individuals within an institutional environment by enabling identity verification and tracking movements to enhance safety and discipline across the premises.

[0023] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of an identification and monitoring system for an educational campus is illustrated, comprises of an identification card 101, a hanging arrangement 102 provided with the card 101 comprises a pair of motorised rollers 102a integrated with an upper edge of the card 101 and a strap 102b looped between the rollers 102a, a camera 103 installed in the card, a covering unit 104 installed with the card 101 comprises a motorised spindle 104a installed with a front portion of the card, an electromagnetic strip 104b at a bottom end, and a ferromagnetic bar 104c attached at a bottom portion of the card, a fragrance spraying unit 105 attached with the strap 102b comprises a chamber 105a holding the fragrance and a sprayer 105b mounted over it, a microphone 106 integrated with the card, a projection unit 107 provided over the card, and a plurality of multi-colour lighting elements 108 embedded in the card.

[0024] The present invention includes an identification card 101 preferably in portable shape incorporating various components associated with the system, developed to be positioned on a ground surface. The card 101 is made up of any material selected from but not limited to metal or alloy that ensures rigidity of the card 101 for longevity of the system.

[0025] The system is wirelessly linked to a user-interface inbuilt in a computing unit to enable the user to activate/deactivate the system. The communication module includes, but not limited to Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) module, Bluetooth module, GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) module. The Wi-Fi module contains transmitters and receivers that use radio frequency signals to transmit data wirelessly to the microcontroller. The wireless module typically includes components such as antennas, amplifiers, and processors to facilitate communication and further connected to networks such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or cellular networks, allowing system to exchange information over short or long distances for communication of wireless commands to facilitate operations of the system.

[0026] A hanging arrangement 102 is attached with the card 101 to allow a user to hand the card 101 by their neck. The hanging arrangement 102 comprises a pair of motorised rollers 102a integrated with an upper edge of the card 101 and a strap 102b looped between the rollers 102a to facilitate hanging of the card. Each motorized roller is responsible for winding or unwinding the strap 102b based on the user’s input. When activated, the motors rotate the rollers 102a, either retracting the strap 102b to shorten it or dispensing it to increase its length.

[0027] The direction and speed of roller rotation are precisely controlled by a microcontroller or control unit embedded within the card, which receives signals from the user interface. The strap 102b is looped between the two motorized rollers 102a, forming a continuous adjustable loop that serves as the wearable portion of the hanging mechanism. As the rollers 102a turn, they pull or release the strap 102b symmetrically to maintain balance and comfort.

[0028] The user input the length of the strap 102b required via the computing unit. Each roller is embedded with an RPM (rotations per minute) sensor to regulate roller movement, thereby dispensing or retracting the strap 102b to a length inputted by the user. When the user inputs the desired strap 102b length through the computing unit, the control unit sends a signal to the motorized rollers 102a to either dispense or retract the strap 102b accordingly. As the roller rotates, the RPM sensor continuously monitors the number of revolutions in real-time. This data is sent to the control unit, which calculates how much strap 102b has been released or pulled back based on the roller's circumference and number of rotations.

[0029] Once the sensor detects that the strap 102b has reached the target length corresponding to the user’s input, it signals the control unit to stop the motor, halting further movement of the roller. This regulated mechanism ensures precise adjustment of the strap’s 102b length, allowing the card 101 to be comfortably and securely worn around the user's neck.

[0030] A thermal sensor is embedded within the card 101 to detect the thermal signature of the user’s body. The thermal sensor works by detecting infrared radiation emitted from the structures of the property, which correlates to temperature variations of the user’s body. The thermal sensor uses specialized sensors to capture the heat patterns on the surfaces and convert this data into a digital reading. The thermal sensor continuously monitors temperature fluctuations and sends this information to the microcontroller for analysis of the user’s body. In the absence of a signature, indicating the user has removed the card, an alert is generated through the user interface reminding the user to wear the card.

[0031] The system comprises a plurality of location markers arranged strategically throughout the campus to demarcate different predefined zones. These markers, implemented as RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) scanners, detect the presence of the card 101 in their vicinity. The card 101 is equipped with a corresponding radio frequency-based identifier to enable identification.

[0032] RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) scanners and radio frequency-based identifiers work together to enable automatic identification and tracking without physical contact. The RFID scanner, also called a reader, continuously emits radio waves at a specific frequency within a designated area. When an RFID tag or identifier, embedded in the identification card, enters this area, it receives the radio signal from the scanner. The tag then responds by transmitting its unique identification data back to the scanner using radio waves. This exchange happens wirelessly and almost instantly.

[0033] The RFID scanner captures this data and forwards it to the system’s central controller or server, which processes the information to identify the user and determine their location within the predefined zones. Because the communication is wireless and does not require line-of-sight, RFID is effective for real-time monitoring in environments like campuses. The radio frequency-based identifier embedded in the card 101 is passive or active, where a passive tag relies on the scanner’s radio waves for power, and an active tag has its own power source to transmit signals over longer distances.

[0034] A camera 103 integrated with a processor is mounted within the identification card 101 to capture visuals of the user’s surroundings. This camera 103 continuously records images or video in the vicinity of the user, providing visual context to the location data received from the RFID markers. The integrated processor processes the captured visuals locally, enabling quick analysis and compression of image data before transmission. This processed visual information is then combined with location data and sent to a centralized server for further analysis. The camera 103 helps verify the presence and behavior of the user in specific zones, supporting enhanced security, attendance tracking, and behavior monitoring.

[0035] A camera 103 with an integrated processor is mounted within the card 101 to capture visuals from the user’s surroundings. Data from the location markers and visuals from the camera 103 are processed and sent to a centralized server. The visual data of the user’s surroundings is processed by the embedded processor within the camera 103 module. The processor analyses the captured images or video to detect and verify the user’s presence and activities in the vicinity. This visual data, combined with location information received from nearby location markers, is transmitted via the communication unit to a centralized server. The server uses this combined data to accurately identify the user’s location within predefined campus regions and monitor their activities for purposes such as attendance tracking and security.

[0036] The centralized server is configured to store identities of all users, including their schedules, region-specific locations within the campus, and their attendance records. Attendance is verified by the user’s presence in specific regions, detected by the location markers and confirmed via camera 103 visuals.

[0037] The system includes a covering unit 104 installed with the card 101 to conceal the card 101 when the system determines that the user is outside the campus boundaries. This covering unit 104 comprises a motorized spindle 104a located at the front portion of the card. The spindle 104a is loaded with a spool of a cover sheet, and an electromagnetic strip 104b is provided at the bottom end of the sheet. A ferromagnetic bar 104c is affixed at the bottom portion of the card 101 to secure the strip 104b upon deployment.

[0038] Motorized spindle 104a is a small motor-driven reel located at the front portion of the card, responsible for winding and unwinding the cover sheet. When the system signals that the card 101 needs to be covered, the motor rotates the spindle 104a to pull the cover sheet down over the card. Conversely, when uncovering is needed, the spindle 104a reverses rotation to roll the sheet back onto the spool.

[0039] The cover sheet is a flexible sheet wound around the spindle 104a that acts as a protective layer that physically conceals the card’s surface. The spool stores the sheet compactly when not in use and allows it to be smoothly extended when deployed.

[0040] Electromagnetic strip 104b is attached to the bottom end of the cover sheet, this strip 104b can be magnetically attracted and locked in place. When the cover sheet is fully extended over the card, this strip 104b ensures it stays securely fixed by interacting with the ferromagnetic bar 104c fixed at the bottom portion of the card, this bar 104c is made of a material that attracts magnets. It holds the electromagnetic strip 104b firmly when the cover sheet is deployed, preventing the sheet from slipping or rolling back unintentionally.

[0041] To enhance emotional monitoring, a skin conductance sensor is integrated within the strap 102b to assess the user’s emotional state. The skin conductance sensor works by measuring the electrical conductance of the user’s skin, which varies with the level of sweat gland activity. When a person experiences emotional changes such as stress or excitement, their sweat production increases, even if it’s not visibly noticeable. The sensor applies a small, harmless electrical current to the skin through electrodes and measures how easily the current passes through the skin. Higher sweat levels improve skin conductivity, indicating heightened emotional arousal or stress. This data is then analysed to assess the user’s emotional state in real time, allowing the system to detect when the user is stressed or emotionally agitated.

[0042] Upon detecting a stressed condition, a notification is triggered via the user interface. In response to this state, a fragrance spraying unit 105 attached to the strap 102b is activated. The fragrance spraying unit 105 comprises a chamber 105a holding the fragrance and a sprayer 105b mounted over it, which emits the fragrance to calm the user.

[0043] When the unit receives a signal, a small pump is triggered to push the fragrance out of the chamber 105a. This action forces the liquid fragrance through a narrow nozzle, breaking it into tiny droplets, which then disperse into the air around the user. This fine mist helps to spread the scent evenly, allowing the fragrance to reach the user effectively and help improve their mood by creating a calming atmosphere. The spraying is precise and controlled to avoid excess use, ensuring the fragrance is emitted only when necessary.

[0044] A PPG (photoplethysmography) sensor embedded in the strap 102b continuously monitors the user’s vital parameters. PPG sensor is a non-invasive optical technique used to measure physiological parameters, primarily heart rate and blood oxygen saturation. PPG sensors operate based on the principle of light absorption. When light is directed towards the toddler, the light penetrates the toddler's skin and reach to the tissue and is either absorbed or reflected back. Blood absorbs light differently than surrounding tissues, allowing for the detection of changes in blood volume with each heartbeat. A photodetector captures the light that is either transmitted through the skin or reflected back. By comparing the absorption of red and infrared light to a defined pattern, the sensor estimates the percentage of oxygenated hemoglobin in the blood to monitor the user’s vital parameters.

[0045] Alongside the PPG sensor, a microphone 106 integrated into the card 101 captures ambient sound. The microphone 106 capture ambient sounds from the user's surroundings using MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) technology, which allows it to be compact, sensitive, and energy-efficient. When sound waves reach the microphone 106, they cause an internal diaphragm to vibrate. These vibrations alter the capacitance between the diaphragm and a fixed backplate, converting the sound into an electrical signal. This signal is then transmitted to the microcontroller to be analysed in real-time. In the event of antagonistic behavior being detected, the camera 103 captures the image of the offending person, and the microphone 106 records the audio. These data are then transmitted to the centralized server via the communication unit.

[0046] The system further includes a projection unit 107 mounted on the card 101 to visually guide the user within the campus using navigational cues. The 3D holographic projection unit 107 uses interference patterns of light to create realistic three-dimensional images in mid-air. The projection unit 107 consists of a laser source, beam splitters, mirrors, and a holographic screen or projection surface. The projection unit 107 projects light onto a surface from multiple angles, using the interference of light waves to produce 3D images visible from different perspectives. In an educational setting, this allows the students to view complex experimental setups, models, or simulations in three dimensions. By interacting with the holographic projections, students are able to better understand spatial relationships, experiment processes, and visualize scientific concepts that are otherwise difficult to demonstrate physically.

[0047] For example, if the user is new to the college and wants to take a full campus tour, the system projects a campus map and prompts the user to select starting and ending points, providing a guided tour accordingly. The unit also helps guide the user to reach any specific area within the campus, ensuring accurate navigation. Additionally, if a student forgets to bring an essential book for a lecture, the system can send instructions to the holographic projection unit 107 to display the relevant lecture material or information directly in front of the user. This feature enables the student to easily read, understand, and follow the lecture content without difficulty or interruption, enhancing the learning experience and ensuring the student remains engaged and well-informed throughout the session.

[0048] A plurality of force sensors is embedded along the strap 102b to detect neck movement patterns. When combined with camera 103 inputs, these sensors help determine whether the user is distracted during class. The force sensor consists of components such as strain gauges to measure force exerted by the neck over the strap 102b through changes in electrical resistance when deformed due to applied pressure. As the neck of the user moves, the force sensor captures the pressure applied and converts it into an electrical signal. This signal is then transmitted to the microcontroller, which interprets the force exerted.

[0049] Upon detection, a haptic feedback unit installed in the strap 102b generates a vibration alert to help the user regain focus. This vibration serves as a subtle but effective physical cue to the user, helping to draw their attention back to the current activity, such as a classroom lecture or meeting. The intensity and duration of the vibration are calibrated to be noticeable without causing discomfort, ensuring the user is reminded to regain focus without causing distraction to others nearby. This immediate tactile feedback helps promote sustained attention and reduces instances of inattentiveness by providing real-time correction through a non-intrusive alert mechanism integrated seamlessly into the wearable device.

[0050] Lastly, a plurality of multi-colour lighting elements 108 embedded in the card 101 provides visual cues or warnings to the user upon detection of unruly behavior, as assessed by inputs received from the microphone 106. These lighting elements 108 used herein are LED (light emitting diodes). LEDs are made from semiconductor materials which have properties that allow them to emit light. The LED contains a p-n junction, where a p-type region is positively charged and an n-type region is negatively charged. When voltage is applied, electrons from the n-region move towards the p-region, and holes from the p-region move towards the n-region. As the electrons move across the p-n junction, they recombine with the holes. During this process, the electrons lose energy, and this energy is released in the form of photons (light).

[0051] The system includes an IoT (Internet of things) module integrated within, which actively monitors the current time and works in conjunction with the location markers to track the user’s precise location within the campus premises when the user is inside the campus or when the device is activated. Concurrently, the microphone 106 embedded in the card 101 continuously analyses the volume level of the user’s speech to determine whether it is appropriate for the surrounding environment.

[0052] If the detected speech volume exceeds predefined threshold levels, an alert is generated either through haptic feedback delivered by the haptic feedback unit integrated into the strap 102b or via notifications sent directly to the user’s smartphone, encouraging the user to speak more quietly and at a slower pace. For example, when the user is detected to be seated in an exam hall during a scheduled exam, the system monitors noise levels in real time. If unusual noise levels are detected, the system automatically sends a notification to the concerned faculty or invigilator, indicating potential suspicious behaviour such as cheating, thereby supporting academic integrity through real-time monitoring.

[0053] Similarly, if the user is in the library and conversing loudly with others, the system continuously monitors ambient noise levels. Upon exceeding the acceptable noise threshold, the system generates a prompt or warning, either by projecting a visual alert through the projection unit 107 or activating the vibrating unit within the strap 102b, gently reminding the user to lower their voice to maintain a quiet study environment.

[0054] A battery (not shown in figure) is associated with the system to supply power to electrically powered components which are employed herein. The battery is comprised of a pair of electrodes named as a cathode and an anode. The battery uses a chemical reaction of oxidation/reduction to do work on charge and produce a voltage between their anode and cathode and thus produces electrical energy that is used to do work in the system.

[0055] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the identification card 101 as disclosed in the invention is wearable around the user's neck through the adjustable hanging arrangement 102. The strap 102b adjustment is managed by the pair of motorized rollers 102a embedded with the RPM sensors, which are controlled wirelessly via the user interface connected to the computing unit, allowing the user to input the desired strap 102b length. The thermal sensor embedded in the card 101 detects the user’s thermal signature and triggers the alert via the interface when the card 101 is removed, prompting the user to wear it. The plurality of RFID-based location markers installed throughout the educational campus detect the presence of the user in specific predefined regions using the radio-frequency identifier embedded in the card. The real-time position data, combined with visual input from the camera 103 integrated with the processor within the card, is transmitted to the centralized server that maintains the database of user identities, schedules, location zones, and attendance records. When the user is outside campus boundaries, the covering unit 104 composed of the motorized spindle 104a deploys the cover sheet over the card, secured with the ferromagnetic bar 104c to cover the card. Additionally, the system incorporates a skin conductance sensor to detect stress, activating a fragrance spraying unit 105 comprising a fragrance chamber 105a and sprayer 105b to calm the user. A PPG sensor and microphone 106 monitor physiological signals and ambient audio to detect antagonistic behaviour, prompting the camera 103 to capture the situation and transmit the data to the server. The system also includes a projection unit 107 for navigational assistance, force sensors along the strap 102b to monitor distracted behaviour and trigger haptic feedback, and multi-colour lighting elements 108 to issue visual alerts in response to detected unruly conduct.
