PREVENTATIVE WORKPLACE INJURY ALERTING SYSTEM UTILIZING MMWAVE 5G POSITIONAL LOCALIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17643033 titled 'PREVENTATIVE WORKPLACE INJURY ALERTING SYSTEM UTILIZING MMWAVE 5G POSITIONAL LOCALIZATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for monitoring a user's movements during a flight and warning them of potential injuries. This is done by analyzing body movements and postures using a network of sensors over a period of time. If the analysis determines that the user's movements could lead to an injury, a real-time alert is issued to warn the user.

  • The method uses a mesh network of sensors to monitor a user's body movements and postures during a flight.
  • The analysis of the data collected helps determine if the user's movements could result in an injury.
  • If a pre-set threshold of risk is reached, a real-time alert is sent to the user to warn them of the potential injury.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be used in the aviation industry to monitor and warn pilots or passengers of potential injuries during flights.
  • It can also be applied in other modes of transportation, such as trains or buses, to ensure the safety of passengers.
  • The method can be used in sports training to monitor athletes' movements and prevent injuries.

Problems Solved

  • This technology addresses the problem of potential injuries during flights or other activities by providing real-time alerts to users.
  • It helps prevent short-term or long-term injuries by monitoring and analyzing body movements and postures.
  • The method solves the problem of users being unaware of the potential risks associated with their movements.

Benefits

  • The real-time alerts provided by this technology can help users avoid potential injuries and take corrective actions.
  • By monitoring body movements and postures, this method can prevent both short-term and long-term injuries.
  • The use of a mesh network of sensors enables accurate monitoring and analysis of user movements.


Original Abstract Submitted

In an approach for monitoring a user's in-flight activity and/or a pattern of movement of a user and warning the user of an in-flight activity or a pattern of movement that could lead to a potential short-term or long-term injury, a processor monitors a body movement and a posture of a user through an application of micro-location analysis enabled by a mesh network of G sensors over a period of time. A processor determines whether the body movement and the posture detected can lead to an activity or a series of activities that can result in a potential injury. Responsive to determining a pre-set threshold of risk has been reached, a processor issues a real time alert to the user to warn of the potential injury.
