Candle alert monitoring apparatus and method
View Patent ↗A reusable igniter having an igniter processor, a memory storage device coupled to the igniter processor, and a first short-range wireless device coupled to the igniter processor. A mobile device may be communicably coupled to the reusable igniter. The mobile device has a second short-range wireless device couplable to the first short-range wireless device and a downloadable software application having a notification system.
1 . An apparatus comprising:
a reusable igniter having:
an igniter processor;
a memory storage device coupled to the igniter processor; and
a first short-range wireless device coupled to the igniter processor;
a mobile device communicably coupled to the reusable igniter, the mobile device having:
a second short-range wireless device couplable to the first short-range wireless device; and
a downloadable software application having a notification system; and
a disc having:
a disc processor;
a pressure sensor coupled to the disc processor; and
a third short-range wireless device couplable to the second short-range wireless device.
2 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the reusable igniter is an electric rechargeable igniter.
3 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the reusable igniter is a butane filled igniter.
4 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the mobile device is a software-enabled watch.
5 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the notification system is a geolocation push notification system.
6 . The apparatus of claim 1 wherein a second alert system is coupled to the disc processor.
7 . A method comprising:
activating a reusable igniter having:
an igniter processor;
a memory storage device coupled to the igniter processor; and
a first short-range wireless device coupled to the igniter processor;
a mobile device communicably coupled to the reusable igniter, the mobile device having:
a second short-range wireless device couplable to the first short-range wireless device; and
a downloadable software application having a notification system and a geolocation restriction setting;
igniting a candle with the reusable igniter;
the igniter processor communicating with the mobile device that the reusable igniter was activated;
the notification system alerting a user that the reusable igniter was activated; and
the notification system alerting the user when the geolocation restriction setting is breached.
8 . The method of claim 7 further comprising:
a disc having:
a disc processor;
a pressure sensor coupled to the disc processor; and
a third short-range wireless device couplable to the second short-range wireless device.
9 . The method of claim 7 wherein the reusable igniter is an electric rechargeable igniter.
10 . The method of claim 7 wherein the reusable igniter is a butane filled igniter.
11 . The method of claim 7 wherein the mobile device is a software-enabled watch.
12 . The method of claim 7 wherein the notification system is a geolocation push notification system.
13 . The method of claim 8 wherein a second alert system is coupled to the processor.
14 . A method comprising:
placing a candle on a disc having:
a disc processor;
a pressure sensor coupled to the disc processor; and
a third short-range wireless device coupled to the disc processor;
the disc processor communicating with a mobile device having:
a second short-range wireless device couplable to the third short-range wireless device; and
a downloadable software application having a notification system and a geolocation restriction setting;
the disc processor sending a first pressure sensor reading to the mobile device;
configuring a pressure reading restriction on the mobile device;
the notification system alerting the mobile device once the pressure reading restriction is exceeded.
15 . The method of claim 14 further comprising:
a reusable igniter couplable to the mobile device, the reusable igniter having:
an igniter processor;
a memory storage device coupled to the igniter processor; and
a first short-range wireless device coupled to the igniter processor.
16 . The method of claim 15 wherein the reusable igniter is an electric rechargeable igniter.
17 . The method of claim 15 wherein the reusable igniter is a butane filled igniter.
18 . The method of claim 14 wherein the mobile device is a software-enabled watch.
19 . The method of claim 14 wherein the notification system is a geolocation push notification system.
