DESC:FIELD OF THE INVENTION:
The present invention provides for a computer based system and method for tracking and locating a configurable device which sends and receives alerts from a Central Monitoring and Management Server which monitors the user/device during normal and emergency situations and enables the 5 user to get help quickly in a variety of emergency situations. More specifically the present invention provides a networked personal safety system to help the victims of different degrees of assaults, people suffering from mental and physical disorders or any other vulnerable individuals to create an alert and get help during distress. The present invention also 10 helps in tracking and confirming the safety of such persons during normal and emergency situations.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION:
Today life has become very uncertain and unpredictable on a day-to-day 15 basis. Incidences of people being subjected to violence is at an all time high with assault, battery, molestation, abduction, harassment etc increasing day by day affecting humanity as a whole. Further, there is a significant increase in the number of incidences where elderly people suffering from dementia, Alzheimer’s and other diseases which includes physical and 20 mental disorders, wander off to unknown locations without being aware of their whereabouts themselves. Additionally disasters both natural and made-made like floods, terrorist attacks create situations where people are often untraceable by their friends and relatives.
25
Some of the examples are the increased violence against women and children. And as the geriatric population is increasing, memory loss
3
problems and other cognitive problems associated with them are also increasing thereby increasing the rates of morbidity and mortality.
In such times, the distressed person may create an alarm by attracting the attention of other people for immediate help and succour. However, due to 5 the prevalent distress causing situation such as deserted locations, break down of systems due to disaster; it may not always be possible to get immediate help. The next reflex action is to run from the scene to find someone or someway of contacting someone to ask for help. The person under distress may also call any of his contacts or an emergency number 10 which is easily accessible from any location. But there may be times when the personnel employed to answer such exigencies are engaged in other matters and it may take time for the victim to get through to someone to ask for help. In such cases the likelihood of receiving help becomes very bleak and may result in an unfortunate incident. Even if the call gets 15 through, the personnel only have access to the phone number or the address linked to it, if any. If at any time such a call gets interrupted or disconnects due to some reason, the original location of the person under distress may vary making it difficult or impossible for the dispatched authorities to find the location of the person under distress. There maybe 20 times where the distress situation is such that the person doesn’t have the time to find a public phone or use his phone to call the emergency service. In such cases the emergency service is of no help.
Calling an emergency number or attracting attention of others may not be 25 options for the person under distress to call for help. Therefore it is immensely important to employ a computer based system and method for tracking and locating a configurable device which on detecting adverse,
4
dangerous, or abnormal situations sends alerts to locate the whereabouts of a person under distress and immediately informs his specified emergency contact(s) for ensuring help in the least amount of time.

13
The system in the present invention requires the user (28) to first register user’s personal information with the CMMS (27) by providing personal details and information relating to any emergency contact(s) (29) who must be contacted during different types of emergencies, distress etc. The system may then send username and one time password to all the registered 5 contacts of the user (28), with the help of which they could join in a conference call and/or login to the web based portal to get more information about the current situation of the user (28) depending on the designated emergency type.
10
The present invention can operate in a variety of modes, including but not limited to default and emergency mode. In default mode the device (11U) acquires and sends information relating to device’s health status, real time situational awareness, user geo-location and any other audio/video information to said CMMS (27). The CMMS (27) stores and analyzes all the 15 information received from the user’s device (11U) and transmits the information to the emergency contact(s) (29), auxiliary services (31) or other configured agencies (33) depending on the type of the situation. The information can also be used for a variety of forensic and archival analyses such as building safety zones, based on the user’s regular activity location. 20
The emergency mode of the system is activated when the device (11U) and the CMMS (27) detect a change in at least one event selected from voice patterns, including the unique distress sounds, words, wails, etc., press of a button, change in any gesture of the user and vital body parameters. Once 25 the emergency mode is activated, the system creates an alert and sends information relating to the identity of the registered user and the user’s geo-location to the CMMS. Such identity and location information can be
14
obtained through cell phone towers, GPS and Wifi locations, depending on the indoor and outdoor scenarios and the availability of the signals.
The device (11U) has the capability to monitor the basic vital parameters of the human body and record and transmit the same to an analytical engine, 5 while having the capability to trigger the emergency alert based on the change or abnormality in vital parameters. For instance, the device is capable of self-triggering based on the sudden variation in the pulse of the wearer of the device. During the emergency, the system informs the user and emergency contact(s) and also helps the user in finding the critical 10 information about auxiliary services such as nearest hospitals, fire stations and other emergency related information. The system feeds these crowd sourced information to the CMMS (27).
The device (11U) has the capability to identify the risky areas/geo location 15 by getting the feed from CMMS (27) which is crowd-sourced from the news and other web related portals and data and alerting the user as needed.
The device (11U) also has the capability to send geo-location information of the user using communication medium such as an SMS to multiple people 20 at the same time without having to enter all the recipient information.
Further the device (11U) also has the capability to have multiple mechanisms such as pre-authorization to disconnect where one needs to be authorized before disconnecting the device (11U), if the authorization is 25 unsuccessful which may be when the device is removed from the user, the device may send an alert immediately. The device (11U) is equipped with a protected lock mechanism, removing which in an unauthorized way will
15
trigger an alert. This shall help in ensuring that if someone tries to remove the device, before the victim triggers it, the device will generate alert to the CMMS (27).
Once an alert is received by the CMMS (27) from the device (11U) the 5 audio, video and images of said user’s(s) surroundings are recorded and stored in the device and also transmitted to the CMMS (27) based on available bandwidth and signals. The information so stored is erase protected, hence no one can alter or erase the information which is stored. Further the basic vital parameters of the human body and are monitored, 10 recorded and transmitted to the CMMS (27), while triggering the emergency alert based on the change or abnormality in vital parameters. Further, using context awareness (34) the device (11U) and CMMS (27) together initiate machine to machine communication so as to learn from the situational data, such that the user (28) is provided with immediate 15 assistance in a situation of distress.
Apart from sending alerts to the CMMS (27), the device (11U) is also configured to perform voice and video calls with the CMMS from where it can be streamed in to one or more approved emergency contacts of the 20 User. In addition, the device also has the capability to record audio, video and images of the user’s surroundings and store it in the device and also transmit the same based on the available bandwidth and signals to the CMMS. The transmitted images, audio and video are also stored in the CMMS for forensic and archival analysis. The device is also equipped with 25 speakers which allow the first responders or volunteers to provide immediate help or suggestions through voice as well. The device further has the capability to receive the call using the CMMS without needing any
16
action by the end-user. The device has the capability to have multiparty conference facility, without having to dial all the parties’ numbers. These facilities potentially help to identify the situation, when the user of the device is not capable or is not in a position to operate the device.
5
The system also uses social networking platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, etc., in addition to the above-mentioned modes to alert the emergency contacts who have signed up and specified these configured agencies (33) as a communication mode, providing the incident and location information of the user. The User may designate contacts to 10 receive information on specific types or all types of emergencies. The device in the system is capable of sending information to such social media sites including Twitter, Facebook, etc. about the emergency situational awareness, there by alerting the volunteers and other auxiliary services. The system is capable of adopting such recourse with or without having 15 the internet data plan of a network service provider.
The system with the CMMS and the device has the capability to use context awareness and alert the nearby users or volunteers about any incident, which results in faster response times. The system also has the capability to 20 customize the distance information, which may be used for sending alerts based on the location of the user.
The system has the capability to provide virtual and physical assistance functionality via the CMMS which can help to provide virtual assistance by 25 means of audio and video streaming, in the case of a suspicious area or scenario which may deter any criminal activities. The system is capable of automatically identifying the risky area using a scoring system which is
17
based on the number and types of crimes which occurred in a specific location. Further, the device is also equipped with speakers which will allow the first responders or volunteers to provide immediate help or suggestions through voice as well.
5
For the elderly, children and other needy citizens, the system can detect and create specific kinds of alerts designated to specific emergency contacts during fall events such as sudden falls, drowning, extreme temperatures, etc., using sensors.
10
Furthermore, customizable single layer and multi layer geo-fencing can be applied to each end user. When the user crosses the geo-fence, the CMMS can be alerted and video can be turned on by the CMMS which may be used to guide the user of the device. CMMS also notifies specified emergency contacts in such a situation. 15
Apart from Geo-fencing the system also has the capability to automatically and manually configure the usual or safe path information. This is done to find out if the children/elderly and other disabled citizens have moved away from their usual path. The system also has the capability of 20 remembering the location of the person, and provide alert when there is a deviation in the location or path. For instance, the system is capable of identifying whether a child who is going to school every day is deviated from his usual path, as in the case of abduction, the system can thus identify & alert without having to trigger the system. 25
The device has the capability to use a film or a wafer based battery or a super capacitor to reduce the weight of the battery. The device is also
18
capable of charging itself by harvesting energy from sources selected from at least one of piezo effect, solar, crank and other body energy sources. The device also has the capability to detect any tampering which includes, change in the hardware, Software and SIM, and also removal/forcible removal/attempted destruction of the device. The device sends alerts and 5 stores information about the tampering locally as well as in the CMMS.
Hence the present invention employs a computer based system and method for tracking and locating a configurable device which sends and receives alerts and thereby can ensure the personal safety of a human in 10 any situation.
