Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current security systems face challenges in distinguishing between false and true alarms, leading to delayed responses and potential safety risks during intruder events, as they often require manual verification and struggle to quickly identify and address legitimate threats.
Innovation Solution
A monitoring system that utilizes wireless devices to connect with intruders' cellular phones, determining their authenticity and sending deterrent messages, while tracking their location and potential accomplices, and integrating with IoT systems for real-time monitoring and alerting security personnel.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If manual verification is used to distinguish false alarms from true alarms, then the system can reduce false alarms, but the response time is delayed and valuable time is wasted during genuine alarm events
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by proactively contacting the intruder's cellular phone before an alarm is triggered, establishing communication channels and gathering information in advance. This preliminary engagement allows the system to have verification capabilities ready before a genuine threat occurs, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual verification during actual alarm events.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements continuous feedback loops by monitoring cellular phone connections, tracking intruder location in real-time, and receiving responses from deterrent messages. This feedback mechanism provides ongoing verification information that helps distinguish false alarms from true threats without requiring manual intervention, as the system automatically processes verification feedback.
2Reliability
If the system contacts the intruder's cellular phone to verify identity and send deterrent messages, then the ability to distinguish false alarms improves, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The monitoring system is designed with multi-functionality to perform diverse operations through a unified architecture: establishing cellular communication channels, sending deterrent messages, tracking intruder location, identifying accomplices, and providing safe exit routes. This universal design consolidates multiple functions into integrated system components, managing complexity while enhancing intruder identification capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses the intruder's own cellular phone as an intermediary device to facilitate identification and communication. By leveraging the phone's existing capabilities and connecting it to the monitoring system, the patent avoids the need for complex dedicated identification hardware, as the cellular phone serves as a mediator that enables verification and tracking functions.
3Productivity
If the system tracks the intruder's location and identifies accomplices in real-time, then the effectiveness of security response improves, but the processing requirements and system resource consumption increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary tracking and identification actions by establishing communication with the intruder's cellular phone and monitoring its location from the moment of contact. This continuous preliminary tracking ensures that when a genuine threat is confirmed, the system already has location data and accomplice information ready, eliminating the need for intensive real-time processing during critical response phases.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements selective monitoring by focusing tracking resources on confirmed threat scenarios. While the system maintains the capability to track location and identify accomplices, it applies these resources partially or excessively only when necessary - such as when deterrent messages fail or genuine threats are detected - thereby optimizing resource consumption while maintaining high security response effectiveness.
