This invention consists of an electronic unit that transmit real time video via the 3rd generation cell phone network. This is intended as an auxiliary unit for alarm and control systems (206, 406, and 506). This unit has been pre-programmed to call a 3rd generation cell phone subscriber when the alarm system triggers.
A state of the art 3rd generation cell phone can call this unit at any time, given the unit has pre-programmed this phone as an approved subscriber.
Bluetooth handshake is used for on/off control of the alarm system.
Previous inventions as in GB 2 372 612 has described the use of a electromechanically operated standard GSM phone as means to transmit video without explaining how to interface this phone to a TV camera, nor addressing the lack of bandwidth for this application on GSM, or option for remote control.
Previous invention as in GB 2 396 763 has described the transmit ion of video clips as a MMS via the GSM/GPRS but do not include real time video, or remote control.
Previous invention as in WO 91/16695 for arming and disarming of alarm systems has been designed as a hardware solution, with no operational flexibility.
The limitation in the above-mentioned inventions has been solved by use of electronic 3rd generation state of the art cell phone technology, with sufficient bandwidth for real time video and sound.
This invention utilizes state of the art Bluetooth hardware in combination with customized software, which adds flexibility and programmability, to the arming/disarming functionality.
With this invention you do not need to carry any electronic transceiver other than your state of the art cell phone for arming and disarming the alarm system. This invention utilizes the fact that state of the art cell phones are equipped with Bluetooth.
With reference to figure 1.
The Bluetooth module (103) is based on state of the art Bluetooth technology (Bluetooth chip set).
The unit will identify a state of the art cell phone with active Bluetooth function by engage the electronic handshake (given that preprogramming between this to units has been done). Pre-programming can be done in many different methods including remote programming via SMS or MMS, or storing the Bluetooth key on the SIM card.
Bluetooth is considered to have a limited range. The Bluetooth module (103) is considered to be an option for automatic on/off function of the alarm system. The Bluetooth range will establish the boundary for when the alarm is on or off. This works so that when the phone is within range of the unit the alarm system are off (electronic handshake are active). automatic turns on after receiving the command signal from the interface module (105).
If several users are participating in the control of the alarm system, the alarm will arm (turn on) when the last cell phone with Bluetooth handshake with the unit steps out of Bluetooth range.
If the Bluetooth function is not used, the on/off function of the alarm system can be utilized.
The Digital camera module (104) also contains a microphone for transmit ion of real time sound in addition to video. This is based on state of the art components.
The RF module (102) is based on state of the art 3rd generation cell phone components. The intention is to interface a cell phone network for transmit ion of real time video and sound. The SIM card included in the RF module has a list of telephone numbers that represent the approved subscribers that are called upon alarm, and are able to call the unit.
Automatic call (after alarm), is done by calling the first number on the SIM card for 15 seconds before the next number is called, until connection has been established. This is to avoid that the call goes to a voicemail. It is possible to send SMS and MMS to this unit for control and programming. In addition functions can be controlled (activated) from a state of the art cell phones keyboard.
The interface module (105) is flexible and easily programmable depending on the application. It will interface all alarm/control systems and local area network. Programming can be done via Bluetooth (103) or via the interface module (105).
The power supply module (101) will make sure all modules get the right power for operation. External input will as a minimum include 12V DC, 110V/60HZ and 220V/50HZ.
Description of the drawings
Figure 1 is a block diagram of the invention as described under system description.
Figure 2 shows a house alarm example. The unit has been connected to an alarm system with smoke detectors and burglar alarm (206). When leaving the house the alarm system becomes active after the Bluetooth (203) connection between the unit and the cell phone are broken. After 3 hours the unit call the cell phone and transmit live video that verify an attempted fire. The fire department is called next. It is possible to activate the alarm system when in Bluetooth connection by turning off the cell phone, or the Bluetooth function on the cell phone. Useful for those who like to have the burglar alarm active at night. Figure 3 shows an access control example. By physically limit the Bluetooth range to an area just in front of a door with automatic door opening system (302) this unit becomes an access control system. As illustrated in figure 3 can activity be logged in a central PC (304) for several doors via a local area network (303), (illustrated with 2 doors). SMS or MMS can be utilized to send access code to cell phones.
Figure 4 illustrates a car alarm and control example. The unit has been connected to a burglar alarm system with electronic door lock/unlock system (406). The owner approaches the car, Bluetooth (403) connection establishes between the unit and the cell phone. Car doors unlock and alarm system turns off.
Figure 5 are remote control examples. The unit has been connected to a control system (506).
First case, this is your cabin. You plan to arrive at the cabin Friday afternoon. It is Thursday and you call up the unit at the cabin. You then push [1 #] on your cell phone and the electric heating has been turned on. Your cabin will be warmed to ideal temperature before arrival on Friday.
Second case, this is your boat. You call up the unit at your boat after a storm. You push [1 #] on your 3G-cell phone, and the light turns on. You discover that the boat needs pumping. You push [5 #] to start the pump. You call back 10 minutes later and push [5 *] to stop the pump. Then push [1 *] to turn off the light.
Third case, this is dam gates controller at a remote location. You are the power plant engineer in charge. After bin called (alerted) by the unit you find that some adjustments have to be done to prevent flooding. You push [8 #] to open gate 8. You monitor this action via 3G-video on your cell phone, until you are pleased with the water level, then you push [8 *] to close the gate.
Forth case, this is your house with smart house controller.
You are expecting a parcel, but are not able to wait at home for this delivery. When the delivery person rings the front door bell, the unit call your cell phone, you verify via video and push [1 #], and the front door opens for 30 seconds. In this case a loudspeaker has been connected to the unit via the interface module (505) for two-way voice communication.
These are just a few examples of applications for this unit. This patent is not limited to these applications. Thus, the scope of the invention should be determined by the appended claims and their legal equivalents rather than by the examples given.
