| 20080306772 | System and Method for Providing a Personal Internet of Objects and Information - A system and method are described for managing a personal Internet of objects and information, and applying the information to enhance the quality of daily activities such as situations where personal medical information is required but otherwise not available. The device can be used for performing various functions, such as re-ordering medication, keeping track of valuable objects, locating missing objects, performing authenticated financial transactions, contacting service providers to report failures and scheduling appointments. An information gathering module collects and organizes data on objects in partially pre-configured templates on a Personal Internet Card (PIC) embedded in an electronic device. Templates determine how that data is applied in the real world, and keep track of usage. Data collection by the PIC can be through wireless means or hardwire communication. A PIC-enabled device could apply the information and specific knowledge of objects in a manner that enhances the daily activities of its owner. | 12-11-2008 |
