Abstract
We have
developed the next generation internet search tool and are redefining the way
consumers access the web. We have harnessed the core strengths of the
mobile phone and complex applications and in doing so have provided a technical
solution compelling to both advertisers and retailers.
ARL
(Augmented Reality Link; Vision)
The
technology uses the mobile’s camera to take a photograph of an object (i.e. a
logo or a word) and submit the image to a server, which matches the
identification and returns the result back to the user.
VRL
(Voice Recognition Link; Audio)
Voice
recognition uses the telephone’s microphones to capture an audio file (i.e. a
word of phrase) and submits it to the server, which matches the identification
and returns the result back to the user.
GRL
(Geographic Resource Locator)
Utilizes
the telephone’s GPS capabilities to correlate the location of the user and the
search target. The information is sent directly to our high level
geo-coding facility and returned to the user as a map. The user is
able to view the search target on the map and easily locate the product or
services, which they want.
Barcode
Scanner
This new
facility enables an onboard barcode scanner which not only provides fundamental
product information including pricing, but will also provide the consumer with a
method of accessing product data and websites. Retailers are able to
condition this feature to ensure that the consumer gets the desired
information.
Technical
Overview
Our
application consists of a proprietary algorithm which operates agnostically
across several mobile platforms. The algorithm is designed to
function with the majority of popular embedded codes and necessarily is scalable
to accommodate the mass market.
The
algorithm is compatible with WiFi (Wireless local area network Wireless fidelity
IEEE 802.11), 3G (3rd
Generation WCDMA network incorporating HSDPA- High-Speed Data Packet Access and
UTMS- universal mobile telephone system). The algorithm is compatible
with proprietary GSM standards essentially utilizing EDGE (Enhanced Data Rates
for GSM).
It
represents a configuration of compiled data which interacts with wireless
networks (including mobile telephony networks) and with internally hosted
servers which correspond with mobile devices through multiple acccess
sockets. Sockets are allocated primarily for proprietary
applications. ARL (augmented reality link), VRL (voice recognition
link) and GRL (geographic resource locator). A newly assigned
algorithm includes a barcode scanner. The details of each facet are
described below:
ARL
essentially utilizes Augmented reality (AR) and is a technology which provides a
live direct or indirect view of a physical real-world environment whose elements
are augmented by virtual computer-generated imagery.
The link
utilizes the mobile’s digital camera to take a photograph of an object, logo or
word. The results are transmitted OA (over air) and submitted to a
proprietary’s source database. Thereonafter, the information is balanced,
moderated and processed within our vision cluster environment.
Additionally,
this link provides the user with an option to utilize image recognition both
uplink and downlink interacting with proprietary server systems. By
pointing the phone’s camera at the real world and receiving augmented
information directly related to the view of the camera. This might
include the position of points of interest or commercial outlets.
Additional
sockets are allocated for Voice Recognition Link (VRL) which uses the
telephone’s inbuilt microphone to capture an audio file which
is submitted it through to a proprietary server
environment. This audio file specifically interacts between the
production environment and the Nuance external voice recognition vocoding
server.
These
same sockets are allocated for Geographic Resource Locator
(GRL). This utilizes the telephone’s GPS (Global Position System)
capabilities to correlate the location of the user and the search
target. The information is sent directly to our high-level geocoding
decryption server and returned to the user as a map. The user is able
to view the search target on the map and easily locate the product or
services.
The
invention includes the provision of a barcode reader utilized to scan a standard
product two-dimensional barcode in order to receive product information and
pricing.
The four
elements above are combined into one unique application, which is designed to
facilitate the consumer mobile experience. This provides a compelling arena for
advertisers and retailers and through this combination the claimant monetizes a
purposeful methodology of business.
A fifth
element includes the provision of consumer metrics in the form of a user
specific dashboard explicating demographic data. Usage profiles
include traffic sources, operating systems and mobile devices, which utilize the
aforementioned systems.
The
combination of all of the above enables us to apply for a new patent code name:
LogoDrive. LogoDrive systematically guides the user through a
registration process and user guide, which provides specific information for
submitting individual brands to our customized designed dynamic
database.
The
methodology is designed to create a viral marketing and commercial campaign
aimed at financial rewards for the assignation of a logo corroborated with our
database and upon the execution of the commercial contract with the controller
of that particular logo, the consumer is rewarded a commission. The
application utilizes WAP (wireless application protocol) and TCPIP (transmission
control protocol internet protocol) to facilitate the methodology.
The
aforementioned commission is dispensed via a free provision of a debit card
which is issued directly and substantiated by a legally registered financial
entity.
The
described methodology is supported by a proprietary system architecture in which
we interact with the Amazon server cloud to achieve maximum functionality,
scalability and maintainability.
We
utilize a combination of automated deployment scripts and server role scripts.
The majority of our deployments are handled using a suite of scripts run by a
control panel, which position package repositories and system partitions. After
these primal scripts execute during the deployment process a machine may run
more granular script. We pull any role based information from the ops server and
executes the appropriate commands after first boot up. Such as; directory
layout, additional package installation, environment based code
deployment. Scripts exist within their portal and are
executed.
Scripts
are executed after first bootup and pull configuration information from /mnt
directory tree on the ops server.
Our cloud
infrastructure is backed up with several methods.
a)
Database servers: Production database servers are backed up daily and stored on
one of our Amazon S3 buckets. Each running database server also runs on a secure
EBS volume for up to the minute recovery.
b)
Production application servers: All production application servers, PHP, Java
and vision cluster operate on secure EBS volumes. There exists an EBS volume for
each critical slice of the application production infrastructure.
As part
of our mobile application we have migrated to two centralized storage locations
for content. All content now lives on the content server, externally visible
from xxxxxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx and internally to the cloud at
xxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx. On this server sits a 1TB EBS volume mounted at
/content using the XFS file system. All data is uploaded to this location using
SSH/SCP and key authentication. The Advertiser site utilizes SSH PHP functions
to create directories and upload respective files. The content is then served
directly to the client over HTTP using Lighttpd. The second
centralized location is the Data Manager of the vision cluster. Whereas in the
past each vision server would house generated SIFT files on themselves, our new
design allows for a central storage location which then assigns a series of
logos to each respective server. In this case content is stored on an XFS
formatted EBS volume at /home/vision/ vision/Data.
The
application servers utilize Amazon's load balancing services to
distribute load from mobile clients. The load balancer works in such a way that
a DNS entry for the mobile application site xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx CNAMES it to the
fully qualified domain name of the Amazon load balancer, which is a rotating IP
depending on geo-location.
