Some such positioning systems rely on the terrestrial communication network by obtaining location information for one or more network base stations that the device is connected to. Other positioning systems leverage existing satellite networks used to implement a general positioning system.
- a satellite positioning system typically includes a system of transmitters positioned to enable entities to determine their location on or above the Earth based, at least in part, on signals received from the transmitters.
- Such a transmitter typically transmits a signal marked with a repeating pseudo-random noise (PN) code of a set number of chips and may be located on ground based control stations, user equipment and/or space vehicles. In a particular example, such transmitters may be located on Earth orbiting satellite vehicles (SVs).
- PN pseudo-random noise
- a SV in a constellation of Global Navigation Satellite System such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Galileo, Glonass or Compass may transmit a signal marked with a PN code that is distinguishable from PN codes transmitted by other SVs in the constellation (e.g., using different PN codes for each satellite as in GPS or using the same code on different frequencies as in Glonass).

- Such systems include a processor, which may be a processor shared with another device, and one or more sensors for detecting the objects motion.
- the sensors may be implemented using acceleration sensors, such as accelerometers, rotational sensors, such as gyroscopes, or any number of other types of motion sensors or combinations of motions sensors.
- acceleration sensors such as accelerometers, rotational sensors, such as gyroscopes, or any number of other types of motion sensors or combinations of motions sensors.
- the various aspects of the teachings herein are not limited to any particular type of sensor.
- the inertial reference systems allow the wireless devices to detect their orientations for purposes of screen display orientation, as input to games or other applications running on the device, or the like.
- Many wireless devices also include the capability to transmit data messages (e.g., text messages, multimedia messages, emails, and the like).
- the device user will manually enter the message using various keypad configurations and entry methods on the device, provide an address of the intended recipient or recipients, and transmit the data message over the available wireless communication network to the intended recipient or recipients.
- the recipient's wireless device will indicate the arrival of the data message, provide an interface prompt to the recipient to view the data message, and then, when selected to view the data message, display the data to the recipient on the visual display of the recipient's device. Because of the immediacy of exchanging data messages, human nature often reflects a compulsivity to both view and respond to such data messages as soon as possible.
- FIGURE 2 a diagram is shown illustrating a wireless communication network 20 configured according to one aspect of the present teachings.
- Two occupants of an automobile 200, a driver 201 and a passenger 204 each have a mobile device, devices 203 and 205. Additionally, the driver 201 is wearing a headset 202 that enables hands-free communication through the device 203.
- a sender 206 sends a data message to the passenger 204 using the mobile device 207.
- the mobile device 207 transmits the message to a network base station 208, which relays the message to the mobile device 205.
- the mobile device 205 Upon receipt of the data message, the mobile device 205 first determines its state of motion.
- the mobile device 205 includes an accelerometer (not shown) that is capable of determining its velocity. The mobile device 205 determines that it is traveling at a velocity that is faster than a human could possibly run or walk. Based on this velocity determination, an automated response feature in the mobile device 205 presents a prompt on its display asking the passenger 204 whether he or she is able to safely handle the incoming data message. Because the passenger 204 is not driving the automobile 200, the passenger 204 responds to the prompt that he or she can safely handle the message. Based on this response, the automated response feature allows the message to be presented to the passenger 204 on the display of the mobile device 205. The passenger 204 would then be able to read and respond to the message as normal.
- an accelerometer not shown
- the sender 206 then decides to send a data message to the driver 201.
- the mobile device 207 transmits the message to the network base station 208, which relays the message to the mobile device 203.
- the mobile device 203 Upon receipt of the data message, the mobile device 203 first determines its state of motion.
- the mobile device 203 includes an accelerometer (not shown) and an SPS receiver (not shown).
- the SPS receiver receives positioning signals from an SPS that includes a satellite 209.
- the accelerometer in the mobile device 203 determines its velocity.
- the mobile device 203 determines that it is traveling at a velocity that is faster than a human could possibly run or walk. Based on this velocity determination, an automated response feature in the mobile device 203 selects a prompt to present to the driver 201.
- the mobile device 203 detects that the driver 201 is currently using the headset 202. Instead of simply presenting the prompt on its display, the mobile device 203 plays an audio prompt to the driver 201 via the headset 202 in addition to presenting the prompt on the display.
- the prompt asks the driver 201 if he or she would like to hear the data message converted into audio by a text-to-speech function or enable the automated response.
- the prompt may also provide an option to the driver 201 to directly dial the sender 206 to have a hands-free conversation.
- speech recognition functionality extracts the response commands and triggers the associated function.
- the driver 201 speaks the command to hear the data message read. Based on this command, the mobile device 203 converts the data message into an audio file using a text-to-speech function, and plays the audio to the driver 201. When the audio ends, the mobile device 203 plays an additional prompt to the driver 201 providing options to dial the sender 206 for a hands-free call, to enable the automated response, or to construct a response message verbally. The driver 201 answers with a command to record a response message verbally. The mobile device 203 then records a verbal message dictated by the driver 201.
- the mobile device 203 then presents an option to the driver 201 whether to send the verbal message as an audio file or whether to convert the driver's verbal message to a text message using speech-to-text functionality in the mobile device 203.
- the driver 201 selects to send an audio file
- the mobile device 203 packages the verbal message into a multimedia message file.
- the mobile device 203 transmits the multimedia message file to the sender 206 using a compatible multimedia message protocol, such as MMS.
- MMS multimedia message protocol
- the mobile device uses its speech-to-text functionality to convert the driver 201 's verbal message into its text equivalent.
- the mobile device 203 may then package the converted text into a text message and transmit the text message back to sender 206.
- the logic in the mobile device 203 may sense the length of the verbal message to be sent. If the message is shorter than a predetermined length, the mobile device 203 autonomously converts the verbal message to text using a built-in speech-to-text functionality. Otherwise, the mobile device 203 continues to package and send the verbal messages as an audio file using a multimedia message.
- FIGURE 3 is a diagram illustrating wireless communication system 30 configured according to one aspect of the present teachings.
- a sender 300 with a mobile device 301 transmits a data message addressed to a recipient 302 traveling on a train 304.
- the data message is transmitted to a network base station 305 in communication with the mobile device 301.
- the network base station 305 transmits the message over the communication network backbone 306 to a network base station 307, which is in communication with the mobile device 303 of the recipient 302.
- the network base station 307 forwards the message to the mobile device 303.
- an automated message function on the mobile device 303 determines its current velocity.
- the mobile device 303 uses positioning signals from an SPS which includes satellites 308-311.
- the automated message function determines the velocity of the mobile device 303. Because the velocity of the mobile device 303 is higher than the velocity that a person could walk or run, the mobile device 303 determines that the recipient 302 may be driving. In response, the mobile device 303 presents a prompt to the recipient 302 on its display asking whether the recipient 302 is able to safely handle the incoming message. Even though the recipient 302 is not driving, he or she does not believe that they want to handle the incoming message and, instead, selects the response to the prompt that enables the automated response. The mobile device 303 accesses a database of pre-determined responses and selects the response previously designated by the recipient. It then transmits the response message to the network base station 307, which transmits the response message to the network base station 305 over the communication network backbone 306. The network base station 305 forwards the automated response message to the mobile device 301 and presents it to the sender 300.
- the mobile device 301 also includes a safety log (not shown) which records all activities of analyzing the automated response functionality.
- a safety log (not shown) which records all activities of analyzing the automated response functionality.
- An employer or even a law enforcement official may obtain the information or records maintained in the safety log by various means, including long- or short-ranged wireless protocols, or through direct connection with a physical connector.
- a law enforcement official may use a secret, law enforcement code to access the mobile device 301 in order to obtain the information in the safety log. If enabled for wireless connectivity, a law enforcement official may even obtain this data by driving along side the vehicle in which the mobile device 301 is located. Therefore, evidence of a possible violation of any anti-mobile device laws could be obtained prior to the official stopping the vehicle.
- the employer may either completely prevent the employee from responding to data messages while traveling above a certain velocity or may provide the employee with the ability to make their own decisions regarding how to safely respond.
- the safety log feature would also provide a benefit to employer-supplied mobile devices in order to maintain a record of how their employees are assessing safe or dangerous response situations.
- the automated message function of the mobile device 301 includes a simple binary functionality, such that if the velocity is determined to be higher than the velocity that a person could walk or run, a determination is autonomously made that it is unsafe for the recipient 302 to respond and an predetermined message is autonomously sent to the sender without first prompting the recipient 302. In such cases, either the recipient 302 will be able to respond to the sender 300 when the mobile device 301 is not moving faster than the velocity limit or if it is moving faster, the response functionality available to the recipient 302 will be deactivated.
- the mobile device 301 instead of completely deactivating the response capability of the mobile device 301 while it is traveling faster than a certain velocity, the mobile device 301 will first search to detect whether the recipient 302 is using a hands-free communication device. If the mobile device 301 detects such a hands-free communication device, it will continue to allow the recipient 302 access to the range of response options discussed with regard to the first aspect described in FIGURE 3. Otherwise, if no such hands-free device is detected, the mobile device 301 proceeds with deactivating the entire response capability.
- FIGURE 4 is a diagram illustrating wireless communication system 40 configured according to one aspect of the present teachings.
- Mobile devices such as mobile devices 401 and 403 also include camera functionality.
- the users, a driver 400 and a passenger 402 would use such camera functionality to take photographs or videos.
- this camera functionality does not need to be reserved only for recreational application.
- Applications running on the mobile device may take control of the camera functionality to create visual images that the application may use to analyze the positioning of the mobile device.
- an application may take control over the microphone to take audio samples of the surrounding area. These audio samples have even been used to detect the heart rate of the person near the microphone.
- applications designed to provide automated response functionality may leverage additional information from the camera functionality and/or microphone to aid in the analysis for determining whether the mobile device belongs to the driver 400.
- a sender (not shown) initiates a call to the driver 400.
- the mobile device 401 receives indication of an incoming call, it begins by analyzing a velocity of the mobile device 401. After determining that the mobile device 401 is traveling at a velocity exceeding a walking speed, an automatic response application takes control of the camera function of the mobile device 401. With the mobile device 401 in a belt holster of the driver 400, a small, clear view from the camera function is able to capture an image facing the passenger side 405 of the car. The response application analyzes the captured image and detects the passenger seat 406 being located on the left-side, i.e., the passenger side 405 of the car.
- the application may determine that the mobile device 401 is located on the driver side 404 of the car.
- the response application running on the mobile device 401 takes control of the microphone to take an audio sample of the surrounding location.
- the audio sample is used to listen for the closest heart beat.
- the application can determine the proximity of the mobile device 401 to the heart beat and may also determine the location from which the closest heart beat is being heard and the heart rate.
- the direction and proximity of the heart beat may be used to determine if the mobile device 401 is in the possession of the driver 400.
- the heart rate may also be used in a statistical analysis to determine whether the person in close proximity to the mobile device 401 is, perhaps, driving or not. Studies have indicated that people exhibit a slightly elevated heart rate when driving, as opposed to when these persons are not driving.
- the application running on the mobile device 401 may initialize itself by taking the resting heart rate of the driver 400, such that when comparing the measured heart rate during an automated response situation, it would have the resting heart rate to compare against the measured heart rate.
- the application running on the mobile phone 401 determines that, based on the detected heart rates, the mobile phone 401 is in possession of the driver 400, and also that the detected heart rate is elevated from the normal resting heart rate of the driver 400. Using this information, the application on the mobile phone 401 determines that the driver 400 is driving and the mobile phone 401 is in possession of the driver 400.
- the mobile phone 401 prevents the incoming call from ringing and, instead, sends an automated message to the sender indicating that the driver 400 is not in a position to safely answer the mobile device 401.
- the application allows the sender to leave a message that will be presented to the driver 400 when the driver may safely address the message.
- the mobile device 403 also is configured with an automated response system.
- a sender places a call to the passenger 402.
- the mobile device 403 detects the incoming call, it performs a velocity check to determine if the mobile device 403 is moving faster than a walking speed. If so, then the automated response system further analyzes the status of the mobile device 403 by assuming control of the camera component of the mobile device 403.
- the camera component captures image data that is analyzed by the automated response system.
- the automated response system determines that the mobile device 403 is located on the passenger side 405 by recognizing the position of the driver seat 407 and the center console 408. Because the determination is that the mobile device 403 is on the passenger side 405, the analysis stops and the incoming call is allowed to come through in a normal manner.
- FIGURE 5 is a block diagram illustrating detailed components of the mobile device 203.
