Definitions

  • This invention pertains to an information distribution system using the Internet to disseminate data about a specific object.
  • the object is associated with a specific URL address, said URL address identifying an Internet web site providing information about the object.
  • a portable device is used to obtain this URL address and, optionally, to access the designated web site over the Internet and download the required information.
  • Transponders and similar devices which can be attached to or incorporated into certain objects and can be interrogated to obtain the identity of the object.
  • One common use for transponders is in airplanes. International regulations require that larger airplanes carry an RF transponder which, when queried, provides the identification of the respective plane. This information is used by onboard computers of other planes and/or air traffic control systems.
  • Toll collection systems used to control vehicle access to certain roads or bridges and to collect usage fares are also known which are based on motor vehicles with transponders.
  • the transponder When a motor vehicle passes through a toll gate, the transponder is queried and, in response, it provides an identification code. This code is relayed to a master computer which determines if the identification code is valid, and charges the account of the motor vehicle operator.
  • Systems of this kind are described for instance in U.S. patents No. 5,819,234 to Slavin et al and the references cited therein, all incorporated herein by reference.
  • Some anti-theft devices for automobiles are also known which make use of a transponder incorporated into the ignition keys.
  • the transponders carry an identification number specific to each automobile.
  • Transponders for this type of anti-theft devices are described in U.S. Patent No. 5,739,766 to Chaloux, incorporated herein by reference.
  • the anti-theft device prevents the operation of a motor vehicle with an ignition (or entrance key) which does not have a proper transponder identification.
  • Another type of an anti-theft device makes use of a transponder which can be queried remotely. If a motor vehicle with this type of transponder is stolen, the owner contacts the local law enforcement agency which then sends an RF signal activating the transponder. The transponder then starts sending out its identification signal and this signal is used to locate the stolen motor vehicle.
  • Retail stores including clothing stores, electronic stores and other stores carrying relatively expensive items, also attach or otherwise incorporate transponders in their goods for inventory control and to deter theft. Transponders for this purpose are described in U.S. Patent No. 5,785,181 to Quartararo, Jr.; U.S. Patent No. 5,812,065 to Schrott and U.S. Patent No. 5,751, 223 to Turner and incorporated herein by reference.

  • U.S. Patent No. 5,729,697 to Shkolnick incorporated herein by reference.
  • an intelligent shopping cart system for a supermarket or similar retail outlet is described.
  • every item for sale is provided with a transponder identifying the item.
  • a purchaser puts all the items he or she has chosen in a special shopping cart.
  • the shopping cart includes a transceiver which queries the transponders of the items contained in the shopping cart and obtains their corresponding indentifications. It then contacts a master (or store) computer and transmits these identifications.
  • the master computer uses this information to generate a bill for the customer at exit.
  • the bill, or at least the total amount is optionally transmitted back to the shopping cart for display to the customer.
  • the transponder is associated with a specific item, and it is adapted to generate identification signals which uniquely identifies that particular object.

  • a further objective is to provide an information distribution system which allows a person to access certain information about an object where and when the person so desires.
  • Yet another objective is to provide an information distribution system in which the data about a particular object can be updated very easily without handling or manufacturing the product itself.
  • a further objective is to provide an information distribution system for data about specific objects, wherein the manufacturer, seller or provider of the object, or any information "publisher” can direct the data directly to a potential customer or interested party.
  • a further objective is to provide a very flexible information distribution system which can be used to obtain information concerning different types objects, including products, services, or geographic locations, tourist sites and so on, using a simple, easy to use desirably portable device.
  • an information distribution system for disseminating data about specific objects includes a transponder associated with each object.
  • This transponder may be queried by a person activating an appropriate portably query device.
  • the transponder transmits a URL to the query device identifying an Internet address of a source of information associated with that object.

  • the capacitor 32 is coupled to the antenna 30 and is arranged so that the energy of certain RF signals received by the antenna 30 is stored in the capacitor 32, as discussed more fully below.
  • transponders are used in a large number of applications. However, previous transponders were used to obtain an identification of the object associated with the transponder itself. For example, in the toll collecting systems the transponder identifies the person who is responsible for paying the toll. Transponders incorporated in motor vehicle keys are used by anti-theft systems to identify a key authorized to operate the motor vehicle.
  • transponder 14 From time to time, it may be necessary to reprogram the memory 38 of transponder 14. This process can be performed in a number of ways. One way is to make memory 38 a removable memory (i.e., a flash memory). A new removable memory can be programmed or loaded with the correct data at a remote location and then used to replace an existing memory. A second way is to remove the transponder 14 from its normal place (i.e., a chain) take it to a remote location and reprogram its memory 38. The third way is to use a portable programming device (not shown) which can be taken to the transponder and used to reprogram memory 38. In some instances, the transponder 14 may be coupled to an Internet connection device, in which case its memory 38 can be reprogrammed through the Internet.
  • a portable programming device not shown
  • the transponder 14 could be directly connected to a central station and could be reprogrammed through this connection.
  • An important feature of the present invention is that the information in the memory 38 may or may not, optionally, identify the object; in this case, chair 12, but definitely identifies a remote database such as a web site on the Internet which contains information about the object. For example, upon inquiry, the "name", the style and the date of manufacture of the chair may be given as well as the related URL, whereupon current delivery time can be given.
