Abstract

This invention relates to a personal information transmission system acting as a bespoke universal gateway. The system allows an end user, via subscription, to transfer and receive information that would otherwise not be possible due to conflicts of proprietary rights in IT systems which are each designed to offer specific services or products on a particular technological platform. The hardware and software of the present invention crosses these platforms via the respected third party licensing rights. The system includes means to receive and transmit subscriber messages, a database of subscriber information, a database of possible recipients and a computer platform programmed with rules to analyse subscriber messages, determine an appropriate recipient and what personal information to add to the subscriber message. The system offers extra multi-platform and system communications, services and products including, for example, emergency access to personalized information and notifying emergency centers with a user's contact and medical details.

Description

DATA STORAGE AND INFORMATION TRANSMISSION

Introduction

This invention relates to a personal information transmission system that is particularly, but not exclusively, used in respect of emergency messages.

Background

The mobile phone (cellular phone) has had a revolutionary worldwide impact on communications and a most important feature is that of emergency messages.

However, this emergency messages facility is essentially a duplication of that provided by conventional landline telephone systems. However, the range of facilities and the manner of operation provided by cellular and the like communication devices, such as wireless, PDA, laptop, gaming, music, TV, IT/PC, portable and other established and emerging technical units & device(s), enables more than a simple emergency message to be sent.

Object of the Present Invention It is an object of the present invention to enhance emergency and the like messages by adding and transmitting selected, related information to the original message.

Statement of Invention

According to the present invention, a personal information transmission system comprises:-i) means to receive a subscriber message from any one a range of communication devices; ii) a database of subscriber personal information; iii) a database of possible recipients, including addresses and transmission medium; iv) means to transmit said subscriber message with added personal information to the determined recipient; and, v) a computer platform operatively connected to the reception and transmission means and the databases and programmed with rules to analyse the subscriber message, determine an appropriate recipient and what personal information to add to the subscriber message.

I

In one embodiment, the present invention is a mobile portal directory and service provider.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the subscriber communication device is programmed to transmit a subscriber message to the system message in addition to an addressed recipient.

The system of the present invention is essentially a universal IT hardware software communicator Through the agreement of third party use proprietary rights and the mid ware written algorithms and/or hardware development; the system becomes a "glue" to allow push pull technological communications to occur. The system will allow an end user, via subscription, to transfer and receive information which is currently not possible due to conflict of proprietary rights in IT systems which are each designed to offer specific services or products on a particular technological platform. The hardware and software of the present system has been designed to cross these platforms via the respected third party licensing rights in return for appropriate remunerations. In summary, the present system is a bespoke universal gateway algorithm/s hardware and software system, which offers the licensed partner company and/or the customer subscriber extra multi-platform and system communications, services and products The services provided by the present invention include:- 1. Invoke Emergency Services from a Mobile phone.

2. Personalised information to access on emergency 3. Custom notification for subscribers 4. On emergency call notifies emergency centres with the medical, contact details and personal information of the user

Introduction to the Drawings

The above and further features of the present invention are illustrated by the Drawings, wherein:-Fig. I is a schematic of an "EVE" application server in accordance with one embodiment of the system present invention; Fig. 2 is a schematic of architecture for the system of Fig. 1; and, Fig. 3 is a box diagram illustrating operation of the system of Fig. 1.

Detailed Description

The emergency message embodiment of the present invention operates by the following steps: 1. input subscriber info into the application server using ID for security.

2. information stored in the central server until emergency services request 3. emergency use request can be via voice hardware software and preset user alarm methods 4. upon a subscriber dialling 999 the network route the call to Eve and 999 services.

5. the 999 call is dealt with normally except the information stored by the user is sent simultaneously to the emergency services handler's screen and the subscribers mobile phone.

6. as there are different software systems the gateway to the server needs to be a patented universal software system 7. the gps chip in the phone is activated remotely and the location information sent to the emergency service.

8. the software in the phone is changed to force it in the case of an emergency to find the strongest signal whatever the network (roaming).

9. the phone software is changed to act as if the battery was flat and not allowing normal use when a set time is still left in case of an emergency.

The application server responds when a user calls 999 emergence service to send user information and user geographical location to the base station controller which transfers the call to an emergency unit (call centre) and transfers user information to a registered application server. The application server notifies the central server and alerts message sent with the personal details. The application server m Makes a call(s) to contact person and emergency medical units, e.g. ambulance with user information and Location.

The system can be provide the following, additional features:- 1. enables subscription product's to securely roam and address x-billing to any subscription third party mobile, 3g and wireless network; from any subscription mobile phone, or other internet enabled it devices in a given region(s); 2. save battery life for user's emergency phone calls, sms, email or data-backup; 3. server/storage centre/receiver of ping's; 4. retail and b2b customer/user subscription sales are available by partnership; 5. virus updates occur every 3 or 24 hours via intel [auto or auto-rrse ping's]; 6. customer's own alerts for doctors or dentist appointments, order prescriptions and pick-ups at retailers; 7. 1one work and leisure' options; 8. an internal id systemlmethod that links to third parties to confirm customers id; 9. in case of emergency information to add all here user's key health, medical, allergy & blood type information passed securely.

The emergency message service in accordance with the present invention saves time and lives in emergencies. One secure mobile call via 999 activates:- 1. in case of emergency (ice) information; 2. user's key health, medical, allergy, medication, blood type, doctor information passed securely/encoded to 999 response or rescue teams.

Further emergency services can include:- 1. handsets gps location; 2. informing/updating user's family and work contacts; 3. a copy ice information sent to handset; 4. car recovery; 5. personal accident/injury back-up & lawyer service.
