Description

SYSTEM FOR SEARCHING PEOPLE BY SPECIFIED PARAMETERS

The technical field to which the utility model belongs.

The utility model relates to the field of information retrieval, namely, people search systems by specified parameters, including a housing, interconnected power supply, reception unit and electromagnetic signal transmission unit, signaling device, control element, and can be used to search for people according to specified parameters, for example, for dating, searching for missing people.

The level of technology.

A known system for searching people for given parameters, containing wearable client devices, including a housing, interconnected power source, a reception unit and a transmission unit of electromagnetic signals, a signaling device, a control element, described in the description of the patent for the utility model of the Russian Federation Ns 124504, published 2013 year

In it, the purpose of finding people according to the specified parameters is to get acquainted, as wearable client devices are used phones, tablets, smartphones, computers and other things that have a mandatory connection to the Internet.

Its disadvantage is the low functionality of the people search system for the given parameters, due to the fact that the system only works with a functioning integrated network connecting client devices, for example, the Internet. In its absence, for example, in the metro, in sparsely populated areas, on the ski slopes, when descending into caves, the system does not work.

The prior art also includes a system for searching people by preset parameters, comprising wearable client devices, including a housing, interconnected power supply, a reception unit and an electromagnetic signal transmission unit, an alarm device, a control body, described in the description of the patent for a utility model of the Russian Federation Ns82897, published 2009

The purpose of the search is to get acquainted with it, wearable client devices are made in the form of cell phones, and the data obtained through the built-in satellite location system with an electronic terrain map, which made with the possibility of displaying on the display the location of users - potential dating objects and own position of the owner of the mobile phone

This system is the closest in technical essence and the achieved technical result to the proposed solution and is taken as a prototype of the proposed utility model.

Its disadvantage is the low functionality of the people search system for the given parameters, due to the fact that a cellular network is required, as well as the presence of an integrated satellite positioning system with an electronic map of the area. At the same time, in areas where there is no cellular communication, this system will not work, for example, in the mountains. It is this fact that does not allow using this system to search for missing people in sparsely populated areas, on ski slopes, when descending into caves. ''

Disclosure of a utility model.

Based on this original observation, the present useful model mainly aims to offer a system for searching people by given parameters, which allows at least mitigating the above drawback, namely, expanding the search functionality, for example, for searching people on ski slopes, at descent into the caves or for dating.

To achieve ^" this goal, the people search system for the given parameters contains at least one signal coding unit corresponding to client parameters and client request parameters.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to ensure that any wearable client device sends a signal that encodes information about the parameters of the first client, for example, his age, gender, etc., and about the parameters of his request, that is, about whom he is looking for.

In addition, each first wearable client device contains an electromagnetic signal analysis unit connected to the signaling device from any other second wearable client device, which determines the coincidence of the request parameters of the first client with the parameters of the second client and, at the same time, the coincidence of the request parameters of the second client with the parameters of the first client, adapted for the operation of signaling devices first and the second wearable client device when the specified parameters match for the first and second client.

Due to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible for each request generated by the signal coding unit, and corresponding to the client parameters and client request parameters, to determine the correspondence, which is necessary, for example, for acquaintance. Indeed, if a man wants to get acquainted with a woman, and vice versa, the system should only respond when mutual requests coincide.

There is a variant of the utility model in which a signal encoding unit is located inside the body of a wearable client device and is connected to a control body providing encoding.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to organize the system so that customers can themselves generate a signal on their wearable device, which would contain the necessary parameters both about the client and about his request.

There is an alternative utility model in which a signal encoding unit is located on a remote device, and each wearable client device has a means of connecting to a remote device.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to organize the system in this way; so that customers can use the simple embodiment of their wearable device, without complex blocks, but simply be able to connect it to a remote device, on which they already produce the necessary signal.

There is a variant of the utility model in which the connection tool includes a USB connector for connecting to a computer device containing a remote device or adapted to connect to a remote device via an integrated network.

Thanks to this advantageous feature, it becomes possible to use a regular computer, which practically everyone has, as a remote device, and make a connection with a regular USB connector. At the same time, it also becomes possible to have one common signal coding unit for all client devices, to place it on a remote device, which can be connected via an integrated network, for example, the Internet. Mostly wearable client devices are adapted to receive and transmit electromagnetic signals at distances up to 1000 meters.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to provide a search for customers on a large territory, which is especially important when searching for missing people when the exact coordinates are not known. With such a large radius, the action becomes necessary not so many rescuers, which increases the likelihood of detecting a missing client.

Advantageously, in such an embodiment, the control element further comprises a range controller of the electromagnetic signal transmission unit

Thanks to this advantageous feature, it becomes possible not only to find a missing customer in a large area, but also to be able to narrow it down and quickly determine the exact location of a customer with high accuracy.

There is a variant of the utility model in which wearable client devices are adapted to receive and transmit electromagnetic signals in the radio range.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to ensure the operation of the system in those places where cellular networks do not work and it is impossible to use alternative search methods.

There is a variant of the utility model in which the signaling device is made in the form of an audio and / or light and / or vibrational signaling device.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to provide a simple version of the message to the client of the first wearable device that a second client was found upon his request.

There is a variant of the utility model in which wearable client devices are made in the form of a key fob.

Thanks to this advantageous feature, it becomes possible to provide a simple option for the continuous use of a wearable client device, for example, it can be hung on a bunch of keys.

There is an alternative utility model in which wearable client devices are adapted to be worn on the arm. Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to provide an alternative simple option for the continuous use of a wearable client device, for example, it can be worn on your hand like a clock.

There is a variant of the utility model in which the control is made in the form of a touch input device.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to provide the possibility of entering various kinds of parameters and combining controls on a small surface in the absence of buttons on the device itself.

There is a variant of the utility model in which wearable client devices further comprise a display connected to an electromagnetic signal analysis unit and a control.

Due to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to expand the functionality of the system, for example, with the introduction of additional data visualization (this may be an image on the first wearable client device of the second client).

The set of essential features of the proposed utility model is unknown from the prior art for devices of similar purpose, which allows us to conclude that the criterion of "novelty" for the utility model is met.

Implementation of a utility model.

The people search system for the given parameters works in the following way. (See FIG. 2).

Example 1. The functioning of the search system for people according to the given parameters in relation to the search for missing people.

Stage A1. In a place where people may be lost, for example, on a ski slope, during extreme sports, when descending into caves, customers at risk are provided with wearable client devices 1.

Stage A2. Each client of the system is assigned to its parameters (for example, name and surname) a certain code that corresponds to the encoding of the signal emitted by the transmission unit 5 of its device 1, as well as the code of one or more system operators that play the role of “customer requests” in this example.

Stage A3. Client devices periodically (for example, once every few seconds) and continuously catch ether in a given range.

Stage A4. In the case of receiving a signal, the electromagnetic signal analysis unit 9 compares two parts of the code in the received signal. In the absence of a signal from an operator’s wearable device, which can be configured to search for all customers or a sample quantity, and which is a complete analogue for each client device 1, the signaling devices of all wearable client devices 1 are not active.

Stage A5. In the event of an emergency, for example, a snow avalanche, and a blockage of people, it is necessary to intensify their search, for which an operator or a group of operators equipped with wearable device operators are sent to comb the area. Their wearable device in the presence of adjustment of the range include at maximum. As soon as a signal from another device is caught by one of the devices - the operator or the missing client, the client and its request codes match, the second device will instantly send a response signal and both devices will sound alarms.

Stage A6. Reducing the range of the wearable device of the operator, the operator himself can gradually specify the location of the missing client.

The sequence of steps is approximate and allows you to rearrange, add or perform some operations at the same time without losing the ability to search by parameters. Modifications and variations of the implementation of this solution are possible. For example, a search may be performed at once for all participants, or may be performed one at a time. Each operator can search for all participants, or maybe only one or several.

Example 2. The functioning of the people search system for the given parameters in relation to the acquaintance of people.

Stage A1. Everyone who wants to find their pair, get acquainted is equipped with wearable client devices 1.

Stage A2. Each client of the system is assigned its parameters (for example ^, gender, age, dating purpose - flirt, serious relationship) and similar parameters of his request a certain code that corresponds to the encoding of the signal emitted by the transmission unit 5 of his device 1.

Stage A3. Client devices periodically emit their encoded signals (for example, once every few seconds) and continuously capture the air in a given range.

Stage A4. In the case of receiving a signal, the electromagnetic signal analysis unit 9 compares two parts of the code in the received signal for their coincidence. If there is no signal or if the request parameters of the first client do not match the parameters of the second client and at the same time, the request parameters of the second client coincide with the parameters of the first client, the signaling devices of all wearable client devices 1 are not active.

Stage A5. If the parameters of the request of the first client do not coincide with the parameters of the second client and the parameters of the request of the second client coincide with the parameters of the first client, the second device will instantly send a response signal (without waiting for the queue) and the signaling devices will work for both devices.

Stage A6. The radius of action in this option is selected from the possibility of visibility or audibility of clients during the operation of their devices. For example, it is selected in the region of 30-50 meters. Naturally, this distance applies to an open area in the absence of interference, in the presence of walls, interference and other things - the radius of action will decrease.

In this case, step 2 may have a sub-step, which consists in a method of encoding a signal. If the encoding unit 8 is located inside the housing 2 of the client device 1, then encoding can be performed using the control 7, or, if available, the touch panel 14. If the encoding unit 8 is located inside the remote device 10 (operator), then the encoding can be performed by the operator . In this case, it may be necessary to additionally connect to the operator’s device through an integrated network.

The sequence of steps is approximate and allows you to rearrange, add or perform some operations at the same time without losing the ability to search by parameters. Modifications and variations of the implementation of this solution are possible. For example, acquaintances can be made by several participants at once if they are simultaneously located in one place and if several cross-requests are satisfied simultaneously. Or there may be an option when only one pair of devices will work.

Also, modifications that allow you to solve the problem may concern the devices themselves. For example, clients' wearable devices 1 may have an additional unit inside the case 2, which allows the operator to remotely block the operation of the wearable device 1 or the ability to block the ability to charge the wearable battery device 1 from the computer. (This may be necessary in the case of organizing the operation of the system on a reimbursable basis, especially when activating the subscription chamber).

In accordance with the proposed utility model, the applicant made a search system for people by given parameters.

The transmit and receive unit has been adapted to a frequency of 433.92 MHz.

The power of the transmission unit was chosen - 9 mW, falling within the allowed range with a transmitter power not exceeding 10 mW, since such transmitters do not require special permissions from the State Committee for Radio Frequencies (State Committee on Radio Frequencies).

The pilot operation of the people search system for the given parameters showed that it allows you to:

- generate for each wearable client device a signal corresponding to client parameters and client request parameters;

- analyze for each wearable client device the signal it receives for the matching of the request parameters of the first client with the parameters of the second client and at the same time the matching of the request parameters of the second client with the parameters of the first client;

- with the simultaneous coincidence of the above parameters, ensure the operation of the signaling devices of both devices;

- in the end, provide the ability to search for people in order to meet or search for the missing;

- operate in areas where there are no traditional communications such as cellular communications and Internet networks.

In addition, the proposed system of people search by given parameters solves some problems of society, for example, by offering people who do not use the Internet, options for getting to know each other.

All this, ultimately, expands the functionality of the people search system for the given parameters.
