Abstract
The present invention relates to an alarm triggering device. The alarm triggering device comprises a wristband (10) adapted to be worn by a user; and circuitry (30). The circuitry (30) comprises a power source (31) configured to power one or more units of the circuitry; first and second triggering buttons (32a, 32b) arranged on separate locations along an circumferential extension of the wristband allowing for simultaneous actuation by the user applying a gripping force by gripping the wristband; an alarm detection unit (33) configured to detect an alarm by detecting simultaneous actuation of the first and second triggering buttons; and a wireless communication unit (34) configured to wirelessly send an alarm message comprising the alarm to one or more alarm receiving units.
Claims23
An alarm triggering device comprising:
- a wristband wearable by a user;
- and
- circuitry comprising:
- a power source configured to power one or more units of the circuitry;
- first and second triggering buttons arranged on separate locations along a circumferential extension of the wristband allowing for simultaneous actuation by the user applying a gripping force by gripping the wristband;
- an alarm detection unit configured to detect an alarm by detecting simultaneous actuation of the first and second triggering buttons;
- a wireless communication unit configured to upon detection of the alarm wirelessly send an alarm message to one or more alarm receiving units and to receive a confirmation message from one or more of the one or more alarm receiving units;
- and
- a feedback unit configured to give feedback to the user upon detection of the alarm by the alarm detection unit to thereby provide the user with a first safety assurance, and to give feedback to the user upon receipt of the confirmation message to thereby provide the user with a second safety assurance, wherein the feedback to the user upon detection of the alarm by the alarm detection unit is different from the feedback to the user upon receipt of the confirmation message.
Circuitry for an alarm triggering device, the circuitry comprising:
- a power source configured to power one or more units of the circuitry;
- first and second triggering buttons;
- an alarm detection unit configured to detect an alarm by detecting simultaneous actuation of the first and second triggering buttons;
- and
- a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly send an alarm message comprising the alarm to one or more alarm receiving units and to receive a confirmation message from one or more of the one or more alarm receiving units;
- and
- a feedback unit configured to give feedback to the user upon detection of the alarm by the alarm detection unit to thereby provide the user with a first safety assurance and to give feedback to the user upon receipt of the confirmation message to thereby provide the user with a second safety assurance, wherein the feedback to the user upon detection of the alarm by the alarm detection unit is different from the feedback to the user upon receipt of the confirmation message.
An alarm triggering device comprising:
- a wristband wearable by a user, the wristband is made of elastic polymer material;
- and
- an electronic module comprising a circuitry comprising:
- a power source configured to power one or more units of the circuitry;
- first and second triggering buttons arranged on separate locations along a circumferential extension of the wristband allowing for simultaneous actuation by the user applying a gripping force by gripping the wristband;
- an alarm detection unit configured to detect an alarm by detecting simultaneous actuation of the first and second triggering buttons;
- a wireless communication unit configured to upon detection of the alarm wirelessly send an alarm message to one or more alarm receiving units;
- and
- a feedback unit configured to provide the user with first and second safety assurances relating respectively to detection of the alarm by the alarm detection unit and confirmation of receipt of the alarm by one of the one or more alarm receiving units,
- wherein the electronic module is configured to be removably inserted into the wristband,
- wherein the wristband comprises an opening on an inside of the wristband for inserting the electronic module therein.
