Benefits of technology

The invention is a computer system that allows users to communicate with each other using different methods based on their needs and the content of the message. The system includes a computer program that receives a message from a user and determines which method of communication to use based on the parameters of the message. The system can also automatically format the message to comply with the parameters of the destination and display it on the user's screen. The system can also consider the content of the message and the user's cognitive ability when determining the method of communication. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a more efficient and effective way of communication for users based on their needs and the content of the message.

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, persons with lower cognitive wellness might have lower test scores or difficulties performing basic tasks.
These individuals are particularly prone to depression and anxiety brought on by feelings of helplessness and isolation caused by a decline in physical or mental capacities.
Various memory aids are known but are not sufficiently personalized to each person to provide that person with daily relief and comfort in social settings.
Drugs, such as cholinesterase inhibitors, used in treatment of dementia, merely treat the symptoms rather than the underlying root of the symptoms and cannot be the sole treatment method of dementia.
Moreover, drugs are invasive and tend to have enhanced side effects in the elderly.
These side effects, including chemical imbalances in the body, can hinder a patient's independence and comfort in contacting his / her social network (i.e., due to memory problems, agitation, nausea, etc.), thereby also enhancing feelings of hopelessness.
The lack of treatment and effective memory aids lead to individuals having lower cognitive capabilities feeling isolated and incapable of communicating with others, including caretakers, family, and friends.
Further, individuals with lower cognitive abilities may have difficulties checking the news because of the large number of news sources available, leading to further feelings of isolation.
This is true even with individuals with higher cognitive abilities, as there is no effective manner of having a unified user interface for transmitting and receiving messages to and from a multitude of sources.

/ Primary Communication Parameters and Channels

[0042]In an embodiment, the current invention is a computer-implemented method of sending a text-based, image-based, video-based or audio-based message. An authorized party submits a preferred or primary method of communication for each of a plurality of contacts in a user's address book or directory. The primary method of communication has a first set of allowable message parameters. The user can compose a message by first selecting a recipient from the plurality of contacts. Upon composing the message, it is determined whether the message meets the first set of allowable message parameters. If it meets the parameters or can be formatted to meet the parameters, the message is sent via the primary method of communication. If the message does not meet the parameters and / or cannot be formatted to meet the parameters, the message is sent via a secondary method of communication that has a second set of allowable message parameters to which t...

ggregation / Receipt

[0043]In an embodiment, the current system is a communication interface that automatically chooses and formats how to present and process a message or response based on the preselected communication method and / or based on the transaction method. The in-basket presents the message (e.g., email, text, tweet, text document, etc.) to the recipient / user in the same form (look and feel) with no differentiation or identification of the original communication product / method. When the user responds to the normalized message, the response can be transmitted through the system to the sent-from address in the same original communication product / method (tweet, text, email, etc.) as used by the original sender, as managed by the system.

[0044]Referring to FIG. 2, message aggregation is a process, wherein the system receives messages from various sources and delivers them to the recipient in a unified interface and in a normalized format, regardless of the source (e.g., email, soc...

ransmission / Distribution

[0052]Referring now to FIG. 3, message distribution is a process wherein the system transmits messages from a user in a unified interface to various sources (e.g., email, social networking, text message, etc.). The process utilizes rules for sanitizing and formatting the outgoing messages, and for determining the communication method and transmitting the outgoing messages to a recipient.

[0053]The user benefits from this process because they can generate messages in a unified, normalized user interface and transmit the message to disparate systems. For low-to-medium functioning individuals, in particular, the unified user interface presents an opportunity for the individual to communicate with family, friends, news sources, etc. more easily than having to utilize different systems / sources for different modes of communication (e.g., having to use FACEBOOK for FACEBOOK-related communications, TWITTER for TWITTER-related communications, and also INSTAGRAM for INS...

Abstract

A system that provides an interface layer through which communications to users can be normalized by making consistent the value-reads (e.g., format) of the communications. The information or message inputted into the system can be used in each aspect of the system to personalize the user's experience. Also, when the system receives information / signals from the user himself / herself (e.g., time it takes to read or transmit a message, choice of communication, etc.), the system can adapt the user's experience to the user's cognitive wellness. The system includes normalization of messages for message aggregation and message distribution.
