Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a funeral method, specifically an interactive high-altitude funeral method. Background Technology

[0002] Burial, cremation tower burial, and eco-friendly burial are all common burial methods. Due to limited land resources and changes in modern lifestyles, cremation tower burial has gradually replaced traditional burial and become the mainstream of modern funeral practices. In addition, eco-friendly burials (such as tree burial, sea burial, and flower burial) can reduce the environmental burden, promote the sustainable use of land resources, and eliminate the complicated procedures of subsequent maintenance and memorial services, thus becoming a new type of funeral option. As can be seen, different forms of funeral often reflect personal beliefs and values, and the changing times are constantly driving changes in funeral practices.

[0003] With the rapid development of technology, high-altitude burial is no longer an unattainable dream. Whether one dreamed of taking a high-altitude trip in life or was filled with curiosity about space exploration, high-altitude burial can be a way to witness the beauty of the earth in the final journey of life, serving as an adventurous journey to the end of life. In addition to fulfilling the deceased's wish to travel in the sky and allowing relatives and friends on earth to look up at the stars and receive spiritual comfort, high-altitude burial is more environmentally friendly and does not waste land resources compared to the aforementioned common funeral forms. Therefore, high-altitude burial services that combine modern technology, environmental protection concepts, and personal dreams are receiving increasing attention.

[0004] A recent search of US Patent Publication No. US2003 / 0065720A1 reveals a method and system for the public to participate in online space funeral memorial services. This system sends the deceased's ashes into space, allowing people in different locations to hold online memorial services to remember the deceased and interact with each other. However, while the main purpose of a memorial service is to gather relatives and friends to express their grief and remembrance, and to help the living express their emotions and accept the passing through mutual interaction, holding such services is not efficient given changes in family structure and decreasing family size. Furthermore, memorial services must be held at a specific time after the deceased's death. If relatives and friends miss the designated time or after the service, they cannot easily remember, commemorate, or interact with the deceased anytime, anywhere, which is not in line with the needs of modern society and requires improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide an interactive aerial funeral method that can track the location of the aerial vehicle carrying cremated remains at any time, and enable living relatives and friends to interact and connect with the deceased, providing comfort and spiritual support to relatives and friends who miss the deceased, and alleviating the impact of the deceased's departure.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention provides an interactive high-altitude funeral method, which includes: A preliminary step involves preparing the ashes of the deceased to be buried in the sky, and a sealed container for holding the ashes, and placing the ashes into the sealed container. One transportation step involves carrying at least one of the sealed containers on a high-altitude aircraft and orbiting the Earth while the high-altitude aircraft transmits real-time location information. A data processing step includes a processor comprising a control unit, a receiving unit connected to the control unit, a transmitting unit controlled by the control unit, a storage unit connected to the control unit, and an analog synthesis unit connected to the control unit. The receiving unit receives the position information of the high-altitude aircraft, the transmitting unit outputs the position information of the high-altitude aircraft, and the storage unit stores the position information of the high-altitude aircraft. The storage unit also stores relevant data about the deceased. The analog synthesis unit synthesizes and simulates a response message based on the relevant data stored in the storage unit, and the transmitting unit outputs the response message. An interactive step enables the contact person corresponding to the deceased to have an operating device connected to the processor, so as to receive the location information of the high-altitude aircraft output by the transmitting unit and the response message generated by the analog synthesis unit through the operating device, so as to establish an interactive connection between the contact person and the deceased; to make up for or alleviate the regret in the hearts of relatives and friends, and to provide emotional support and comfort.

[0007] As a further improvement to the invention, the deceased can be a person or a pet.

[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, the relevant information of the deceased may include chat messages between relatives and friends and the deceased before his / her death, posts made by the deceased on social media, as well as photos, videos, audio data or personal information of the deceased.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, the response message generated by the simulation synthesis unit can replicate the deceased's speaking habits, voice or actions to provide an interactive experience similar to that with the deceased.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, the high-altitude aircraft is launched and transported to high altitudes of the Earth by a high-altitude vehicle.

[0011] As a further improvement to the invention, the high-altitude burial is carried out in outer space. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

[0013] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the preferred embodiment.

[0014] Symbol explanation: 3: Interactive high-altitude funeral methods 31: Preliminary Steps 32: Transportation Steps 33: Data Processing Steps 34: Interactive Steps Detailed Implementation

[0015] The foregoing and other technical contents, features and effects of the present invention will become clear from the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0016] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the interactive high-altitude funeral method 3 includes a pre-processing step 31, a transport step 32, a data processing step 33, and an interactive step 34. In the pre-processing step 31, the ashes of the deceased are prepared, and a sealed container is prepared. Part of the ashes are placed into the sealed container. The deceased can be a person or a pet (animal). The ashes refer to the ashes obtained after the deceased's body has been cremated and then ground. The weight of the ashes can be adjusted according to the needs or the size limitations of the sealed container. Of course, the ashes of multiple deceased persons can be placed in the sealed container at the same time, or the sealed container can be divided into multiple independent spaces for storing the ashes of different deceased persons.

[0017] Continuing from the previous description, in the transport step 32, a high-altitude aircraft and a high-altitude vehicle are provided. The sealed container is loaded onto the high-altitude aircraft, preferably an artificial satellite, and the high-altitude aircraft can carry at least one sealed container, that is, it can carry one or more sealed containers. Then, the high-altitude aircraft is loaded onto the high-altitude vehicle, preferably a rocket, space shuttle, etc. That is, after the high-altitude aircraft completes its inspection, it is installed on the high-altitude vehicle to await launch, and the launch procedure is carried out at the predetermined launch time. The high-altitude vehicle can be used to send the high-altitude spacecraft into the Earth's atmosphere, preferably into space orbit. The following explanation will take the high-altitude spacecraft entering space orbit as an example. After the high-altitude spacecraft successfully arrives at space orbit, it will then orbit the Earth along the space orbit, while transmitting its current location information. In this way, the dream of the deceased traveling around and exploring outer space can be realized. At the same time, the deceased can become stars in the sky, and relatives and friends on Earth can remember or be comforted by looking up at the starry sky, and can also feel the deceased silently watching over them from heaven.

[0018] Continuing from the previous description, in the data processing step 33, a processor is provided. This processor includes a control unit, and a receiving unit, a transmitting unit, a storage unit, and an analog synthesis unit connected to the control unit. Images related to the launch process and subsequent flight of the high-altitude aircraft in the transportation step 32 can be received and transmitted in real time through the processor. They can also be recorded and stored in the processor for viewing and remembrance by family and friends. The receiving unit then receives the location information from the high-altitude aircraft, and the transmitting unit outputs the location information. Furthermore, the processor... The storage unit stores the location information of the high-altitude aircraft. After the location information of the high-altitude aircraft is received, it can be output or stored first, depending on the situation. Then, the storage unit stores the relevant information of the deceased. The aforementioned relevant information may include, but is not limited to, the conversation records between relatives and friends and the deceased, the deceased's posts on social media, the deceased's photos, videos, audio, personal information, daily life information, or any other type of information about the deceased. Then, the simulation synthesis unit synthesizes and simulates a response message based on the relevant information in the storage unit, and outputs the response message through the transmission unit.

[0019] Continuing from the previous description, in the interactive step 34, an operating device connected to the processor is provided so that the contact person can receive the location information of the high-altitude aircraft through the operating device. That is, after the receiving unit receives the location information transmitted from the high-altitude aircraft, the control unit controls the transmitting unit to transmit the location information of the high-altitude aircraft to the operating device. The contact person can track the coordinates of the high-altitude aircraft in real time through the operating device, and can also send a notification when the high-altitude aircraft passes above the operating device. Therefore, the contact person can use the operating device to remember the deceased when they miss them, without being limited by time, place or number of participants, which is more in line with the lifestyle of today's society. In addition, the contact person can also upload relevant information about the deceased to the processor for storage through the operating device, and send what they want to say to the deceased to the processor through the operating device. The simulation synthesis unit is trained and learned from the relevant information about the deceased, and can imitate the deceased's personality, characteristics, tone, word choice, thought process and response logic. The system generates corresponding response messages and can also use images and videos to create character models to enhance the realism of the interaction. The response messages generated by the simulation synthesis unit are then transmitted to the operating device through the transmitting unit, allowing the contact person and the deceased to chat and interact. Of course, the processor can also continuously learn and adjust during the chat interaction, thus realizing the revival of the deceased's voice and appearance through technology, creating a two-way and real-time interactive mode, allowing relatives and friends to express their longing, make up for regrets, and provide emotional comfort, reducing the impact of the deceased's departure and helping to quickly regain confidence in life. Furthermore, the high-altitude aircraft can carry the sealed container and continuously orbit the space orbit as needed, or after completing the predetermined orbit time, put the sealed container or the deceased's ashes into space and let it return to Earth, burning up as a meteor when passing through the atmosphere. Relatives and friends can watch it through the operating device. This is not only environmentally friendly and does not waste land resources, but also has special significance, realizing a romantic and symbolic farewell.

[0020] In summary, the interactive high-altitude funeral method of the present invention transports a sealed container containing the deceased's ashes in a high-altitude aircraft, which then orbits at high altitudes. Simultaneously, a processor connects the high-altitude aircraft and the operating device, allowing the processor to receive and transmit the aircraft's location information to the operating device and store this information. Furthermore, the deceased's information can be uploaded and stored in the processor via the operating device. This allows the processor to be trained and learn, mimicking the deceased's behavior and responses to generate reply messages. This establishes an interactive connection between the contact person and the deceased, enabling them to remember the deceased anytime, anywhere, while also providing emotional support and comfort, helping relatives and friends to recover from grief more quickly.

[0021] The above description is only for illustrating preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. Any simple equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the patent application and the contents of the specification of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent of the present invention.
