Description

L'invention concerne un procédé d'alerte au moyen d'un terminal mobile, ainsi qu'un terminal mobile et un serveur agencés pour mettre en oeuvre un tel procédé.The invention relates to a warning method using a mobile terminal, and a mobile terminal and a server arranged to implement such a method.

Lors d'un déplacement, notamment pour la pratique sportive, l'utilisateur d'un terminal mobile peut se trouver en difficulté, par exemple suite à un accident, un malaise ou une agression. De ce fait, il peut être intéressant pour un utilisateur de disposer sur son terminal mobile de moyens agencés pour lui permettre d'alerter rapidement des tiers, par exemple ses proches ou des services de secours.During a trip, especially for sports, the user of a mobile terminal may be in difficulty, for example following an accident, malaise or aggression. Therefore, it may be advantageous for a user to have on his mobile terminal means arranged to allow him to quickly alert third parties, such as his relatives or emergency services.

A cet effet, on connaît des solutions pour terminal mobile qui permettent à l'utilisateur de déclencher une alerte par une action simple, notamment par activation d'un bouton spécifique.For this purpose, there are known solutions for mobile terminal that allow the user to trigger an alert by a simple action, including activation of a specific button.

Par exemple, l'application iREGA® développée par la Garde Aérienne Suisse de Sauvetage (REGA) pour l'iPhone® d'Apple® permet à l'utilisateur d'appeler automatiquement la centrale d'intervention de la REGA en activant simplement un bouton interactif affiché sur l'écran de son terminal mobile. En outre, cette application comprend des moyens pour calculer automatiquement les coordonnées géographiques de l'utilisateur après activation du bouton et des moyens pour envoyer à la centrale d'intervention lesdites coordonnées et des données personnelles dudit utilisateur, notamment relatives à son identité.For example, the iREGA® application developed by the Swiss Air Rescue Service (REGA) for the Apple® iPhone® allows the user to automatically call the REGA dispatch center by simply activating a button displayed on the screen of his mobile terminal. In addition, this application includes means for automatically calculating the geographical coordinates of the user after activation of the button and means for sending to the central intervention said coordinates and personal data of said user, including relating to his identity.

Par ailleurs, le document WO-2011/106200 décrit un système de localisation comprenant un dispositif sans fil et un dispositif adjoint destiné à être branché à un port d'un terminal mobile, lesdits dispositifs comprenant chacun une interface utilisateur spécifique et étant reliés par une communication sans fil de type Bluetooth®. Pour déclencher une alerte, l'utilisateur appuie sur un bouton spécifique de l'interface de l'un des dispositifs, afin que le terminal mobile émette automatiquement un appel d'urgence, par exemple sous forme d'un SMS (pour Short Message Service), ledit appel comprenant une information de position dudit terminal, notamment des coordonnées géographiques. Cependant, ces solutions ne donnent pas entière satisfaction, en ce que l'utilisateur doit visualiser le bouton à actionner et donc saisir son terminal mobile pour pouvoir déclencher une alerte. En outre, certaines applications nécessitent plusieurs manipulations du terminal mobile, notamment pour naviguer dans les menus dudit terminal et/ou pour confirmer une alerte avant son déclenchement effectif.In addition, the document WO-2011/106200 discloses a location system comprising a wireless device and an adjunct device for connection to a port of a mobile terminal, said devices each comprising a specific user interface and being connected by a wireless communication type Bluetooth®. To trigger an alert, the user presses a button specific to the interface of one of the devices, so that the mobile terminal automatically issues an emergency call, for example in the form of an SMS (for Short Message Service ), said call comprising position information of said terminal, including geographical coordinates. However, these solutions are not entirely satisfactory, in that the user must view the button to be operated and thus enter his mobile terminal to be able to trigger an alert. In addition, some applications require several manipulations of the mobile terminal, in particular to navigate the menus of said terminal and / or to confirm an alert before its effective trigger.

Or, dans le cas d'un accident grave ou d'une agression, l'utilisateur peut ne pas avoir le temps et/ou la capacité physique pour effectuer de telles manipulations, ce qui complique le déclenchement de l'alerte.However, in the case of a serious accident or aggression, the user may not have the time and / or the physical capacity to perform such manipulations, which complicates the triggering of the alert.

L'invention vise à perfectionner l'art antérieur en proposant notamment une solution permettant à l'utilisateur d'un terminal mobile de déclencher une alerte de façon simple, rapide et intuitive.The invention aims to improve the prior art by proposing in particular a solution allowing the user of a mobile terminal to trigger an alert in a simple, fast and intuitive way.
