Quorum Organization System Using Geolocation Matching
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to efficiently organize and identify qualified members for a quorum, particularly in religious contexts, as it is challenging to determine who meets the necessary qualifications and gather the required number of individuals for religious activities like public prayers.
Innovation Solution
A method using an electronic device application to request and organize a quorum by registering users with identifiable information, determining their qualifications, and sending notifications to potential members within a geographic area, allowing them to accept or reject requests and ensuring a predetermined number of qualified individuals are present.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual methods are used to identify and organize quorum members, then individual qualification verification can be thorough, but the process is time-consuming and inefficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual mechanical processes of identifying and contacting quorum members with an automated electronic system. The server automatically queries databases to identify qualified members based on criteria (age, religion, location) and electronically notifies them, eliminating the need for manual phone calls or physical distribution of information.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service by allowing individuals to register their qualifications and preferences in advance. When a quorum is needed, the system automatically queries the registered database and notifies appropriate members without requiring active participation from each individual to seek out the quorum.
2Measurement precision
If comprehensive qualification criteria are applied to identify quorum members, then the accuracy of member selection is improved, but the complexity of the identification process increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the qualification verification process into distinct database queries for each criterion (age, religion, geographic location). The server independently queries each database and combines results, making the complex multi-criteria identification process manageable and systematic rather than attempting to evaluate all criteria simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The server acts as an intermediary that manages the complexity of multi-criteria qualification verification. Instead of requiring direct complex evaluation, the server mediates between the quorum request and the member identification by systematically querying databases and matching criteria, simplifying the overall process.
3Adaptability or versatility
If geographic location filtering is applied to find nearby quorum members, then the relevance of notified members is improved, but the difficulty of detecting and measuring qualified members increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces manual geographic filtering with automated electronic database queries. The server electronically queries the database for members within the specified geographic radius and automatically processes location data, eliminating the need for manual map measurements or distance calculations.

AI summary
A method and system for organizing a quorum is provided. The method includes requesting, using an application on an electronic device, the formation of a quorum at a predetermined geographic location, identifying a plurality of individuals within that predetermined geographic location, and sending a notification to a secondary electronic device for each of the plurality of individuals, wherein the notification notifies each of the plurality of individuals of the predetermined geolocation of the quorum.
