Abstract

A system for monitoring a safety condition of a user includes: a hero device; a measuring device; and a mobile device, the mobile device comprising a processor and a memory device, the memory device configured to store a safety mobile application enabling the mobile device to: record a video recording of the user using the measuring device during a measuring period, receive, from the measuring device, user data measured by the measuring device of the user during the measuring period, transmit, to a server, the user data and video recording of the user from the measuring period, and transmit, to the hero device, a status report message comprising the user data and video recording of the user from the measuring period.

Claims

1. A system for monitoring a safety condition of a user, the system comprising:

a hero device associated with a hero;

a first measuring device and a second measuring device, each measuring device configured to measure biometric data of the user; and

a mobile device, the mobile device comprising a processor and a memory device, the memory device configured to store a safety mobile application enabling the mobile device to;

record a video recording of the user using the first measuring device during a measuring period,

receive, from the first measuring device, a first type of user data measured by the first measuring device of the user during the measuring period,

receive, from the second measuring device, a second type of user data measured by the second measuring device,

transmit, to a server, the first type of user data, the second type of user data, and the video recording of the user from the measuring period,

determine whether the first type of user data is above a predetermined threshold, and

responsive to a determination that the first type of user data is above a predetermined threshold, automatically transmit, to the hero device, an alert message comprising the first type of user data, the second type of user data, and the video recording,

wherein the predetermined threshold is a first predetermined threshold, and wherein the safety mobile application further enables the mobile device to determine whether the second type of user data is above a second predetermined threshold.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the first measuring device is a breathalyzer.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the safety mobile application further enables the mobile device to:

receive, from the user, a request for assistance from the hero; and

transmit, to the hero device, a request message for assistance from the hero, the request message having the first type of user data, the video recording of the user from the measuring period, and a geolocation of the mobile device.

4. The system of claim 1, wherein the safety mobile application further enables the mobile device to determine a geolocation of the mobile device, wherein the alert message transmitted to the hero device further includes the geolocation of the mobile device.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the hero is associated with a predetermined contact selectable on the mobile device.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the alert message includes user identification information.

7. The system of claim 6, wherein the user identification information includes at least one of a time stamp and a date stamp.
