Abstract

Real Transfer allows to transfer money or another measurable commodity between two mobile devices, and to visualise this action in a way representing physical decanting of liquid between two vessels. The transfer may be carried out between a mobile device equipped with a mechanism of specifying a position in space (a gyroscope, acceleration sensor) and another mobile device or computer. The funds are transferred by means of a gesture of decanting the liquid from one device to another. On the basis of the position of the device, the speed and quantity of the transferred commodity is specified while the funds are being transferred. Both the sending and the receiving device must be equipped with a mechanism of wireless communication, e.g. WIFI or Bluetooth. The devices must also have access to the Internet in order to ensure connection with the application server.

Claims

1. Process of transferring any commodity between one electronic device and another electronic device using a gyroscope or acceleration sensor.

2. Process of transferring any commodity of claim 1;

may be transferred to many Recipients.

3. Process of transferring any commodity of claim 1;

the Recipient is not required to have a gyroscope or acceleration sensor.

4. Process of transferring any commodity of claim 1;

will be presented (visualised) by means of decanting of liquid.

5. Process of transferring any commodity of claim 1;

may be simulated (visualised) by means of pouring other things e.g. sand or coins from a box.

6. Process of transferring any commodity of claim 1;

may particularly concern transfer of cash.

7. Process of transferring any commodity of claim 1;

may concern setting a quantity for a commodity different than money e.g. loyalty points or phone top-up.
