Abstract

A carrying device with a built-in security system including a security unit 10 having components housed in an integral unit, where the components include a camera 1 with a light sensor 2 ; with a shatter proof clear cover 3 over the camera lens 16 ; a speed sensor 4 ; a distance sensor 9 ; a GPS tracker 8 ; a transponder 7 for sending and accepting digital data; a microcontroller 15 , and a rechargeable power supply 5 in electrical communication with the microcontroller 15 , the camera 1 , the speed sensor 4 , the distance sensor 9 , the GPS tracker 8 and the transponder 7 ; to monitor the location and contents of the carrying device and to provide real time feedback to the user.

Claims (37)

1. A carrying device with a built-in security system comprising:

a carry bag having an open and closed position and an outer surface ( 20 ) and an internal cavity ( 25 ); wherein said internal cavity has an inner surface ( 30 );

a security unit ( 10 ) comprising components consisting of:

a camera ( 1 ) with a light sensor ( 2 );

a speed motion sensor ( 4 );

a distance motion sensor ( 9 );

a GPS tracker ( 8 );

a microcontroller ( 15 );

a transponder ( 7 ) for sending and accepting digital data; and

a rechargeable power supply ( 5 ) in electrical communication with said microcontroller ( 15 ), camera ( 1 ), said speed sensor ( 4 ), said distance sensor ( 9 ), said GPS tracker ( 8 ) and said transponder ( 7 );

an eject button ( 21 ) to open said unit to remove only said rechargeable power supply ( 5 );

wherein said components are housed entirely within a single integral unit having a shatter proof clear covering ( 3 ) over the camera lens ( 16 ) and a hard plastic outer surface ( 13 ) over the rest of said security unit.

2. The carrying device according to claim 1 ; wherein said security unit further consists of a secure digital memory card ( 11 ).

3. The carrying device according to claim 2 , wherein said secure digital memory card ( 11 ) has a capacity between 4 GB and 128 GB.

4. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein said security unit further comprises a printed circuit board ( 22 ).

5. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein said security unit further comprises USB ports ( 6 ).

6. The carrying device according to claim 1 , further comprising a solar panel ( 14 ) on said outer surface ( 20 ) of the carry bag in electrical communication with said rechargeable power supply ( 5 ).

7. The carrying device according to claim 1 , further comprising a speaker/receiver ( 12 ).

8. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein said carry bag is luggage or a suitcase and said security unit further comprises an altitude motion sensor.

9. The carrying device according to claim 8 , wherein up to five said security units ( 10 ) are built-in and embedded in said inner surface ( 30 ) of said luggage or suitcase.

10. The carrying device according to claim 8 , wherein said altitude motion sensor ( 4 ) is preprogramed so that once the carry bag reaches an altitude height of 5,000 feet said camera is turned off.

11. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein said carry bag is selected from the group consisting of package delivery bags, handbags, briefcases, backpacks, golf bags and musical instrument cases.

12. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein said transponder ( 7 ) sends digital data to a remote central processor ( 19 ) wherein a user can access said central processor ( 19 ) via a personal digital assistance device ( 18 ) to view said digital data transmitted.

13. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein when the carry bag is in an open position said light sensor ( 2 ) is triggered to turn on said camera ( 1 ).

14. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein said distance sensor ( 9 ) is preprogramed to track the carry bag a desired distance.

15. The carrying device according to claim 14 , wherein when said desired distance is achieved an alert is sent to the user.

16. The carrying device according to claim 1 , wherein said speed motion sensor ( 4 ) is preprogramed so that once the carry bag hits speeds of 150 miles per hour said camera ( 1 ) is turned off.

17. The carrying device according to claim 1 , further comprising a remote control ( 17 ) in communication with said security unit.

18. The carrying device according to claim 17 , wherein said remote control ( 17 ) can turn on and off said security unit components.

19. A package delivery bag comprising:

a carry bag ( 23 );

a security unit ( 10 ) embedded in said carry bag comprising components consisting of:

a camera ( 1 ) with a light sensor ( 2 );

a microcontroller ( 15 );

a transponder ( 7 ) for sending and accepting digital data;

a rechargeable power supply ( 5 ) in electrical communication with said microcontroller ( 15 ), camera ( 1 ) and said transponder ( 7 ); and an eject button ( 21 ) to open said unit to remove only said rechargeable power supply ( 5 ); wherein said components are housed entirely within a single integral unit having a shatter proof clear covering ( 3 ) over the camera lens ( 16 ) and a hard plastic outer surface ( 13 ) over the rest of said security unit.

20. A package delivery bag according to claim 19 , further comprising a speed motion sensor ( 4 ); a distance motion sensor ( 9 ); and a GPS tracker ( 8 ).
