Methods and systems for a voice ID verification database and service in social networking and commercial business transactions

1. A method of contact tracking comprising:

obtaining acoustic information from a first device;

obtaining location information from the device;

selecting a time of interest;

identifying at least one acoustic segment of the acoustic information related to a vocalization;

obtaining acoustic characteristics of the acoustic segment;

comparing the acoustic characteristics with stored voiceprints to identify a contact; and

if a contact is identified, sending a notification to a second device.

2. The method according to claim 1 , further including the step of:

obtaining second location information from the second device.

3. The method according to claim 2 , further including the step of:

time matching the location information with the second location information.

4. The method according to claim 3 , further including the step of:

comparing the difference between the location information and the second location information to see if the location of the second device was within a threshold value from the first device.

5. The method according to claim 4 , further including the step of:

setting a positive notification value if the location of the second device was within a threshold value of the first device.

6. The method according to claim 4 , further including the step of:

setting a negative notification value if the location of the second device was outside a threshold value of the first device.

7. The method according to claim 5 , further including the step of:

sending a positive notification signal.

8. The method according to claim 7 , further including the step of:

sending a notification message to the second device.

9. The method according to claim 4 , where the first device is at least one of an earphone, a phone, or a computer.

10. The method according to claim 9 , where the second device is at least one of an earphone, a phone, or a computer.

11. The method according to claim 10 , where the threshold value is between 1 ft and 30 ft.

12. The method according to claim 11 , further including the step of:

obtaining second acoustic information from the second device.

13. The method according to claim 12 , further including the step of:

identifying a second acoustic segment of the second acoustic information within the time of interest.

14. The method according to claim 13 , further including the step of:

obtaining second acoustic characteristics of the second acoustic segment.

15. The method according to claim 14 , further including the step of:

comparing the second acoustic characteristics with stored voiceprints to identify a second contact.

16. The method according to claim 15 , further including the step of:

sending a verification notification to the first device if the second contact is a user of the first device.
