Abstract

A user assistance system comprising a wearable device that enhances personal safety and health management. The wearable device includes an enclosure with a display screen to display a multidimensional code and an input interface for SOS signals. Additionally, the enclosure includes a geolocation unit and a data transceiver for communication with a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal scans the multidimensional code, establishes a communication link with the wearable device, and receives a user profile. The user profile includes emergency contacts, login details, and medical data. In emergencies, the system activates an SOS protocol, transmits a notification with the location of user to designated recipients, and facilitates response and assistance.

Claims (42)

1. A user assistance system, the system comprising:

a wearable device to be worn by the user, wherein the wearable device comprises:

an enclosure for housing one or more electronic components, wherein the enclosure is connected to a band to enable wearing of the wearable device around a body part of the user, wherein the one or more electronic components are selected from:

a display screen disposed on a top of the enclosure, wherein the display screen displays a multidimensional code;

an input interface disposed on a side of the enclosure, wherein the input interface receives a SOS input to trigger a SOS signal;

a geolocation determination unit determines a current geolocation of the wearable device; and

a data transceiver to enable communication with a mobile terminal; and

the mobile terminal:

scans the multidimensional code to establish a persistence communication session between the mobile terminal and the wearable device;

receives a user profile, wherein the user profile comprising at least one of:

at least one emergency contact details of one or more recipients;

a login credential;

a medical record data;

acquires the triggered SOS signal; and

triggers an emergency notification to the one or more recipients, wherein the emergency notification comprising the determined current geolocation.

2. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the user profile is tagged with an order history comprising one or more placed orders, wherein each order is indexed, individually, with:

a list of purchased products or services and a vendor thereof;

a loyalty data corresponding to each of purchased product or service; and

a payment data.

3. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the loyalty information is selected from the loyalty points, the discount coupons, or a membership status.

4. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the multidimensional code is a QR code that encodes information related to an identity of the user or medical information.

5. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the input interface is a button, a touch-sensitive surface, and a voice-activated unit.

6. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the emergency notification includes an audio data, a visual alert, or a vibration alert.

7. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the wearable device comprises a fall detection unit that automatically triggers the SOS signal.

8. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the SOS signal includes a pre-recorded audio message that is transmitted to the one or more recipients.

9. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the wearable device further includes a camera capable to capture multi-media data.

10. The user assistance system of claim 1 , comprising a server arrangement to analyze the order history and flags a suspicious transaction.

11. The user assistance system of claim 1 , wherein the server arrangement uses a machine learning algorithm to personalize one or more shopping suggestions based on the order history.

12. A method for assisting a user, the method comprising:

arranging of one or more electronic components in an enclosure of a wearable device, wherein the enclosure is connected to a band to enable wearing of the wearable device around a body part of a user, wherein the one or more electronic components enable:

displaying a multidimensional code on a display screen, wherein the display screen is disposed on a top of the enclosure;

receiving a SOS input on a user interface, to trigger a SOS signal;

determining a current geolocation of the wearable device;

scanning the multidimensional code, through the mobile terminal, to establish a persistence communication session between the mobile terminal and the wearable device;

communication with a mobile terminal, through a data transceiver;

receiving a user profile, at the mobile terminal;

acquiring the triggered SOS signal, at the mobile terminal; and

triggering, through the mobile terminal, an emergency notification to the one or more recipients, wherein the emergency notification comprising the determined current geolocation.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the wearable device generates and emits a unique sound to assist search and rescue teams in locating the user.

14. The method of claim 12 , wherein the wearable device generates an augmented reality display to provide a guidance instruction to the user during emergencies.

15. The method of claim 12 , wherein the multidimensional code is a QR code that encodes information related to an identity of the user or medical information.

16. The method of claim 12 , wherein the input interface is a button, a touch-sensitive surface, and a voice-activated unit.
