Abstract:

The disguised personal security system in a mobile communications device (MCD) has two modes of operations: audible and silent. Depend on the situation, the user may activate an audible alarm to fend off the perpetrator or in hostile situation, secretly contacts an emergency monitoring service (EMS). The system may be activated manually or automatically. When activated, the MCD contacts an EMS and transmit its location coordinates. The EMS then transmits an acknowledgement signal and activates a “hyper-state” microphone to monitor the user's environment and dispatches the corresponding assistance or authorities. The disguised personal security system is seamlessly integrated into a mobile communication device so that close scrutiny of the device will not be able to distinguish it as a personal security system. The system includes hidden setup menus that accessible by the secret key sequence.
