Abstract

An electronic notebook system is described that comprises a housing, a computing device, wireless interfaces, antennas, sensors, a touch display configured to receive input via a stylus and/or human digit input, the stylus comprising a pressure and/or an inclination sensor, a microphone, camera, the notebook system configured to provide a user condition interface, receive a user selection of a first user condition, provide an interface configured to receive user details, receive audible user details via the microphone, convert the audible user details received via the microphone to text, perform natural language processing to identify text keywords utilizing sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, paraphrase recognition, and/or co-reference resolution, identify a condition based at least in part on the identified one or more keywords, dynamically generate an alert based at least in part on the identified condition, wirelessly transmit the generated alert to one or more destinations via at least a first wireless interface and antenna.

Claims

1. An electronic notebook system comprising:

a housing;

at least one computing device;

a plurality of wireless interfaces;

a plurality of antennas coupled to respective wireless interfaces in the plurality of wireless interfaces, one or more of the plurality of antennas located within or on the housing;

a touch display configured to receive input via a stylus and/or a human digit input;

a microphone;

a camera;

the stylus comprising a pressure sensor and an inclination sensor;

non-transitory memory that stores program instructions executable by the at least one computing device to perform operations comprising;

use the camera to capture video data, and to wirelessly stream the video data to a destination;

provide a user condition interface;

receive a user selection of a first user condition;

provide a request for at least one type of user detail to the user;

provide an interface configured to receive user details;

after providing the request for at least one type of user detail to the user,

receive, using the microphone, one or more user details via voice the user details comprising a sequence of words;

enable natural language processing, comprising language modeling and statistical analysis, to be performed on the received user details comprising the sequence of words to convert the user details received via voice to text;

identify one or more keywords in the sequence of words;

generate a criticality score using the keywords identified in the sequence of words and respective keyword weightings, wherein a first keyword in the sequence of words is associated with a first weight and a second keyword in the sequence of words is associated with a second weight;

identify an urgent user condition based at least in part on the criticality score generated using the keywords identified in the sequence of words and respective keyword weightings;

establish a virtual private network between the electronic notebook system and a remote cloud system;

encrypt and transmit data from the user and synchronize the data from the user with other data associated with the user stored on the cloud system via a transmission of the encrypted audible response to the cloud system using the virtual private network and a first of the plurality of wireless interfaces;

dynamically generate an alert based at least in part on the identified user urgent condition, wherein the dynamically generated alert comprises one or more of the keywords identified in the sequence of words;

wirelessly transmit the dynamically generated alert, including the one or more of the keywords identified in the sequence of words, to one or more destinations via at least one of the plurality of wireless interfaces and least one of the plurality of antennas;

determine stylus inclination and user pressure being applied to the stylus using the pressure sensor and the inclination sensor;

based at least in part on the determined stylus inclination and user pressure being applied to the stylus, determine whether the user is under stress;

transmit a stress indication to one or more destinations via at least one of the plurality of wireless interfaces and least one of the plurality of antennas;

authenticate the user utilizing a biometric sensor; and

grant the user to access to at least a first set of user data in response to authenticating the user utilizing the biometric sensor.

2. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is further configured to identify slurred speech, and based at least in part on the identified slurred speech, dynamically generate an alert, wherein the dynamically generated alert is composed to indicate that slurred speech was received via the notebook system.

3. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is further configured to convert voice-to-text using pattern matching, feature analysis, and/or neural networks.

4. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is further configured to generate a timeline identifying a plurality of user-related events at respective timeline time periods, and to dynamically update the timeline at least partly in response to detecting a new user-related event.

5. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is further configured to detect whether the stylus is being subject to a pressure greater than a first pressure threshold while in contact with the touch display, and at least partly in to generate an alert, wherein the generated alert is composed to indicate that the stylus is being subject to a pressure greater than the first pressure threshold.

6. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is further configured to identify a relationship type of the user with another user based at least in part on the received user details.

7. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is further configured:

to identify a relationship type of the user with a second user based at least in part on the received user details; and

based at least in part on the identified relationship type, determine alert types that are to be transmitted to the second user.

8. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is configured to determine a template to be used to obtain user information based at least in part on the received user selection of the first user condition.

9. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the electronic notebook system is further configured to generate a logarithmic timeline identifying a plurality of user-related events at respective timeline time periods, and to dynamically update the logarithmic timeline at least partly in response to detecting a new user-related event, wherein the logarithmic timeline is configured to be zoomed by a user gesture detected via the touch display.

10. The electronic notebook system as defined in claim 1, wherein the natural language processing determines a probability of certain words or sounds following on from one another to thereby speed up word recognition and improve recognition accuracy.
