- the electronics embedded on the filter patch and classifies this information.
- the next step (406) is to generate a message that contains the identification parameters and to send the message to the communicating entity.
- This message is divided into two fields.
- a header contains information about the communication protocol and a message body that contains the information to be transmitted.
- the information to be transmitted is a pre-recorded command of the type "change of music" or "someone knocked on the door". Alternatively, it may be a voice message that will be processed by the communicating unit.
- the communication protocols are in a preferred implementation Bluetooth or WiFi technology.
- the next step performed by the communicating entity is to classify the event and generate another message that contains an action associated with the event type.
- the communicating entity selects the non-communicating entity or entities concerned according to the event and sends the message to them.
- a message containing execution information of an action associated with the detected event is received by the non-communicating entity.
- This message is divided into two fields. A header that contains information about the communication protocol and a message body that contains the information to be transmitted.
- the message contains in response from the central unit, the type of message to be sent from the non-communicating entity, for example voice message on the weather, or announcing the receipt of a text message, or sending a message. music frame to play.
- the next step (410) is to convert the digital data of the received message into an electrical signal, and amplify the signal.
- the electrical signal makes it possible to vibrate the elements piezoelectric elements coupled to the interaction module and generating (412) an acoustic wave by transformation of the vibration.
- a next step (414) the corresponding function is executed via the passive surface of the non-communicating object.
- This procedure can be repeated continuously on detecting a new event.
- the position of the communicating entity can be used to adapt a feature such as the restitution of the music. If the user moves, another closer non-communicating entity is activated to play the music.
- the usage functions that can be deported to non-communicating objects can be:
- the message of the step (406) received by the communicating entity contains the information relating to the event, the data requested and the identity of the non-communicating entity to be functionalized.
- the communicating entity collects the required data that may be available in memory as a library of music, a prerecorded message or retrieves data from websites or from a calendar. The data is then grouped and sent in a return message to the interaction module.
- the content and the receiving units of the message depend on the information to be transmitted.
- a message to inform that a person is knocking at the front door can be sent to all users.
- communicating can be chosen by the user with the help of a button to trigger an action.
- the present invention may be implemented from hardware and / or software elements. It may be available as a computer program product on a computer readable medium.
- the support can be electronic, magnetic, optical, electromagnetic or to be a diffusion medium of the infrared type. Such supports are, for example, Random Access Memory RAMs (ROMs), magnetic or optical tapes, disks or disks (Compact Disk - Read Only Memory (CD-ROM), Compact Disk - Read / Write (CD-R / W) and DVD).
