TERMINAL DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18272866 titled 'TERMINAL DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a terminal device that collects information related to a person suspected of having an infectious disease. Here are the key points of the innovation:

  • Communication means connecting first and second terminal devices
  • Difficulty information obtaining means to gather data on challenges in obtaining physical condition information near the first terminal device
  • Selecting means to choose between the first and second terminal devices based on difficulty information
  • Physical condition information obtaining means to retrieve physical condition data from the selected terminal device

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in healthcare settings to efficiently gather information on individuals suspected of having infectious diseases.

Problems Solved: This innovation streamlines the process of collecting physical condition information from individuals in a specific location, making it easier to identify potential cases of infectious diseases.

Benefits: - Faster and more accurate collection of physical condition information - Improved ability to identify and respond to potential infectious disease cases

Potential Commercial Applications: "Enhanced Infectious Disease Surveillance System for Healthcare Facilities"

Possible Prior Art: Prior art may include similar systems or devices used in healthcare settings for collecting and analyzing patient data.

Unanswered Questions: 1. How does the terminal device ensure the privacy and security of the collected physical condition information? 2. What measures are in place to prevent misuse or unauthorized access to the data collected by the terminal device?


Original Abstract Submitted

In order to suitably collect information relating to a person who is suspected to have an infectious disease, a terminal device A includes: a communication means communicating with a first terminal device and a second terminal device; a difficulty information obtaining means that obtains information relating to difficulty in obtaining physical condition information in a place around the first terminal device; a selecting means that selects one of the first and second terminal devices based on the information relating to the difficulty in obtaining the physical condition information; and a physical condition information obtaining means that obtains, from the terminal device selected by the selecting means, the information relating to the physical condition of the pedestrian.
