Solution Overview

Problem

Current newborn theft prevention systems in hospitals lack identity recognition and comprehensive monitoring, leading to potential identity confusion and delayed alerts, which can result in harm to parents and newborns.

Innovation Solution

A security alarm system comprising bracelets with unique identification codes, positioning labels, and a computer that provides real-time monitoring and tracking, along with identity recognition and anti-dismantling features to prevent unauthorized removal and ensure accurate positioning of newborns.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If traditional positioning foot ring devices are used, then positioning function is provided, but identity recognition function is missing causing identity confusion

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepositioning accuracyVSAvoididentity recognition accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines the positioning foot ring device with an identity recognition module into an integrated system. The identity recognition module reads identity information from a card and associates it with the positioning data, ensuring that positioning accuracy is maintained while adding reliable identity verification to prevent identity confusion.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Loss of information

If camera-based theft prevention is used, then suspect capture is enabled, but real-time monitoring and early warning are not provided

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesuspect identification capabilityVSAvoidresponse time
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system establishes real-time monitoring and positioning before any theft incident occurs. The positioning module continuously tracks the newborn's location, and the system is ready to immediately send alarm notifications upon detecting unauthorized movement or separation, enabling early warning and rapid response rather than post-incident investigation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements continuous feedback through real-time monitoring of the newborn's position and status. When the newborn moves beyond authorized boundaries or is separated from the mother, the system immediately provides feedback through alarm notifications to the monitoring center and parents, enabling rapid response to potential theft attempts.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Device complexity

If simple positioning systems are used, then device complexity is reduced, but comprehensive monitoring and anti-dismantling features are missing

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesystem structureVSAvoidsecurity monitoring capability
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The positioning foot ring device is designed as a multi-functional integrated system that combines positioning, identity recognition, anti-dismantling monitoring, and alarm notification capabilities into a single device. This universal design provides comprehensive security monitoring without requiring multiple separate devices, balancing functionality with manageable complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system employs a nested structure where the identity recognition module and anti-dismantling monitoring features are integrated within the positioning foot ring device. The positioning module serves as the core function, with additional monitoring and recognition capabilities nested within the same device architecture, providing comprehensive security in a unified system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

AI summary

Disclosed is a security alarm system for newborns. The security alarm system comprises bracelets, positioning labels, limiting labels and a computer, wherein the bracelets comprise newborn bracelets and mother bracelets corresponding to the newborn bracelets, and the newborn bracelets and the mother bracelets corresponding to the newborn bracelets are matched and connected through unique identification codes; and the positioning labels are arranged in a corridor of a ward area, provide positioning information for the newborn bracelets, and provide communication connection between the newborn bracelets and the computer. In the mode, mother and infant identification can be realized through matching modules; when a newborn goes out, the newborn is positioned and the position is inquired in real time through positioning modules and the positioning labels, an alarm is given when the newborn goes out without authorization through the limiting labels, and images are transmitted in real time through camera modules.
