Abstract

A safety system includes a wearable device having means to determine whether a child has been left in a car seat and further having means to detect the wearable device'"'"'s global position and the ambient temperature, heart rate, and activity of a person wearing the wearable device. The wearable device can send notice to a smartphone or other designated device when certain specified conditions have been met or exceeded. The information monitored and/or gathered can be stored and retrieved as needed.

Claims

1. A wearable device comprising means to contemporaneously

(1) detect when a bluetooth signal between the wearable device and a smartphone is becoming weaker,

(2) detect when the ambient temperature is changing,

(3) detect whether activity of the person wearing the device has fallen below a specified threshold, and

(4) detect whether the GPS location is changing.

2. A wearable device as in claim 1, the wearable device further comprising means to make a telephone call.

3. A wearable device as in claim 1, the wearable device further comprising means to store a geographic boundary.

4. A wearable device as in claim 1, the wearable device further comprising means to store a specified ambient temperature.

5. A wearable device as in claim 1, the wearable device further comprising means to store a specified heart rate.

6. A wearable device as in claim 1, the wearable device further comprising a buckle.

7. A wearable device as in claim 1, the wearable device further comprising an anti-bacterial film.

8. A wearable device comprising means for

(1) detecting its global position,

(2) detecting the ambient temperature around the device,

(3) detecting the heart rate of a person wearing the wearable device,

(4) detecting the activity of the person wearing the wearable device, and

(5) making a telephone call for the purpose of sending information.

9. A wearable device as in claim 8, the wearable device further comprising means to store a geographic boundary.

10. A wearable device as in claim 8, the wearable device further comprising means to store a specified ambient temperature.

11. A wearable device as in claim 8, the wearable device further comprising means to store a specified heart rate.

12. A wearable device comprising means for

(1) sending a bluetooth signal,

(2) detecting the ambient temperature around the device,

(3) detecting the heart rate of a person wearing the wearable device,

(4) detecting the activity of the person wearing the wearable device, and

(5) making a telephone call for the purpose of sending information.

13. A wearable device as in claim 12, the wearable device further comprising means to store a specified ambient temperature.

14. A wearable device as in claim 12, the wearable device further comprising means to store a specified heart rate.
