Abstract

Disclosed is a method, system, and computer program product for downloading medical awareness objects on communication devices. In one embodiment, the method comprises: accessing a web server through a network by the communication device; sending a menu data to be displayed on the communication device upon authentication of the communication device by the web server; sending a download request on selecting the medical awareness object from the menu data by the communication device; accessing a database having the medical awareness object by the web server, on receiving the download request; and transmitting the medical awareness object from the web server to the communication device, thereby downloading the medical awareness object on the communication device.

Claims

1. A method for downloading a medical awareness object on a communication device, comprising:

accessing a web server through a network by the communication device;

sending a menu data to be displayed on the communication device upon authentication of the communication device by the web server;

sending a download request on selecting the medical awareness object from the menu data by the communication device;

accessing a database having the medical awareness object by the web server, on receiving the download request; and

transmitting the medical awareness object from the web server to the communication device, thereby downloading the animated medical awareness object on the communication device.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the communication device is a mobile communication device selected from the group consisting of cellular phones, wireless phones, personal digital assistants, and handheld devices.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the method further comprises playing the animated medical awareness object on the communication device.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the method further comprises compressing and formatting the medical awareness object before transmitting the medical awareness object from the web server to the communication device.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein the medical awareness object is compressed and formatted using a MPEG file format or a 3GP file format.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the medical awareness object is personalized by adding text description.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the medical awareness object is personalized by adding music in the form of a ring-tone for the communication device.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the medical awareness object is a three-dimensional animation ribbon.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the downloaded medical awareness object is locally stored in a memory of the communication device.

10. A system, comprising:

at least one mobile communication device;

a network;

a web server; and

a database having at least one animated medical awareness object;

wherein the system implements a method for downloading the animated medical awareness object on the mobile communication device, the method comprising;

accessing the web server through the network by the mobile communication device;

sending a menu data to be displayed on the mobile communication device upon authentication of the communication device by the web server;

sending a download request on selecting the animated medical awareness object from the menu data by the mobile communication device;

accessing the database by the web server, on receiving the download request; and

transmitting the animated medical awareness object from the web server to the mobile communication device, thereby downloading the animated medical awareness object on the mobile communication device.

11. The system of claim 10, wherein the mobile communication device is selected from the group consisting of cellular phones, wireless phones, personal digital assistants, and handheld devices.

12. The system of claim 10, wherein the animated medical awareness object is compressed and formatted using a MPEG file format or a 3GP file format.

13. The system of claim 10, wherein the animated medical awareness object is personalized by adding text description.

14. The system of claim 10, wherein the animated medical awareness object is personalized by adding music in the form of a ring-tone for the communication device.

15. The system of claim 10, wherein the animated medical awareness object is a three-dimensional animation ribbon.

16. The system of claim 10, wherein the downloaded animated medical awareness object is locally stored in a memory of the mobile communication device.

17. A computer program product having a computer readable medium having computer executable instructions recorded thereon for downloading a animated medical awareness object on a communication device, the computer program product performing a method, comprising:

accessing a web server through a network by the communication device;

sending a menu data to be displayed on the communication device upon authentication of the communication device by the web server;

sending a download request on selecting the animated medical awareness object from the menu data by the communication device;

accessing a database having the animated medical awareness object by the web server, on receiving the download request; and

transmitting the animated medical awareness object from the web server to the communication device, thereby downloading the animated medical awareness object on the communication device

18. The computer program product of claim 17, wherein the communication device is a mobile communication device selected from the group consisting of cellular phones, wireless phones, personal digital assistants, and handheld devices.

19. The computer program product of claim 17, wherein the animated medical awareness object is compressed and formatted using a MPEG file format or a 3GP file format.

20. The computer program product of claim 17, wherein the downloaded animated medical awareness object is a three-dimensional animation ribbon.
