Hygiene tracking compliance
View Patent ↗One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for personal tracking of hygiene compliance of a user. For example, a mobile device may host a tracking component (e.g., a personal hygiene compliance app deployed on a cell phone or tablet). The tracking component may be configured to establish a communication connection, such as a Bluetooth communication connect, with a hygiene device (e.g., a soap dispenser). The tracking component may generate either a hygiene compliance metric or a non-hygiene compliance metric based upon whether a dispense event notification, indicating compliance by the user with a hygiene opportunity, is received from the hygiene device. In this way, the user may personally track hygiene compliance information based upon automated communication signals shared between the mobile device and the hygiene device.
1. A method for tracking hygiene compliance of a user, comprising:
receiving a connection request from a hygiene device;
establishing a communication connection between a mobile device and the hygiene device based upon the connection request;
receiving a user zone entry notification from the hygiene device, the user zone entry notification indicating that the mobile device is within a hygiene zone associated with the hygiene device;
displaying an alert, generated based upon the user zone entry notification, through a personalized hygiene compliance tracking interface hosted by the mobile device;
responsive to receiving a dispense event notification from the hygiene device, sending a hygiene compliance metric to a centralized processing device for community hygiene compliance aggregation;
receiving an aggregated community hygiene compliance metric from the centralized processing device; and
displaying the aggregated community hygiene compliance metric through the mobile device.
2. The method of claim 1 , comprising:
providing an audio notification of the alert through the mobile device.
3. The method of claim 1 , comprising:
providing a vibration notification of the alert through the mobile device.
4. The method of claim 1 , the receiving a user zone entry notification comprising:
generating a zone entry metric for the user.
5. The method of claim 1 , comprising:
displaying a map through the mobile device, the map populated with one or more hygiene device indicators.
6. The method of claim 1 , the receiving a connection request comprising:
receiving, by the mobile device, a wireless signal from the hygiene device, the wireless signal comprising the connection request.
7. The method of claim 1 , the communication connection comprising a 2-way wireless communication connection.
8. The method of claim 1 , comprising:
sending a programming instruction to the hygiene device over the communication connection.
9. The method of claim 8 , the programming instruction specifying at least one of a location of the hygiene device or a hygiene zone definition of the hygiene zone.
10. The method of claim 1 , comprising:
responsive to not receiving the dispense event notification before at least one of expiration of a threshold time or receiving a user zone exit notification, after receiving the user zone entry notification, generating a hygiene non-compliance metric for the user; and
providing the hygiene non-compliance metric to a second user.
11. The method of claim 1 , comprising:
responsive to receiving the dispense event notification from the hygiene device, after receiving the user zone entry notification, generating the hygiene compliance metric for the user; and
providing the hygiene compliance metric to a second user.
12. A system for tracking hygiene compliance of a user, comprising:
a tracking component configured to:
receive a connection request from a hygiene device;
establish a communication connection between a mobile device and the hygiene device based upon the connection request;
populate a map with a hygiene device indicator, representing the hygiene device, at a location within the map that represents a physical location of the hygiene device; and
display the map through a user interface of the mobile device.
13. The system of claim 12 , comprising:
a personalized hygiene compliance tracking component configured to:
responsive to receiving a dispense event notification from the hygiene device, display a hygiene compliance metric through a personalized hygiene compliance tracking interface.
14. The system of claim 12 , the tracking component configured to:
receive a user zone entry notification from the hygiene device, the user zone entry notification indicating that the mobile device is within a hygiene zone associated with the hygiene device; and
provide a hygiene compliance opportunity alert based upon the user zone entry notification.
15. The system of claim 13 , the personalized hygiene compliance tracking component configured to:
display an aggregated community hygiene compliance metric through the mobile device, the aggregated community hygiene compliance metric corresponding to an aggregate of the hygiene compliance metric with hygiene metrics of one or more community users.
16. The system of claim 12 , the communication connection comprising a 2-way wireless communication connection.
17. The system of claim 12 , comprising:
a programming component configured to:
send a programming instruction to the hygiene device over the communication connection.
18. A method for tracking hygiene compliance of a user, comprising:
receiving a connection request from a hygiene device;
establishing a communication connection between a mobile device and the hygiene device based upon the connection request;
populating a map with a hygiene device indicator, representing the hygiene device, at a location within the map that represents a physical location of the hygiene device; and
displaying the map through a user interface of the mobile device.
19. The method of claim 18 , comprising:
receiving a user zone entry notification from the hygiene device, the user zone entry notification indicating that the mobile device is within a hygiene zone associated with the hygiene device; and
displaying an alert, generated based upon the user zone entry notification, through a personalized hygiene compliance tracking interface hosted by the mobile device.
20. The method of claim 18 , comprising:
responsive to receiving a dispense event notification from the hygiene device, sending a hygiene compliance metric to a centralized processing device for community hygiene compliance aggregation;
receiving an aggregated community hygiene compliance metric from the centralized processing device; and
displaying the aggregated community hygiene compliance metric through the mobile device.
