The identification unit is provided for storing sonic wave information and body temperature information of a plurality of home members. The intellectual processor is interconnected to the identification unit, and to compare the sonic wave value of the sound sensor with the sonic wave information and the body temperature value of the thermal sensor with the body temperature information to identify which home member stays in the house.

## Background
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a positioning system, and more particularly to a home intellectual positioning system.
2. Description of Related Art
Position tracking systems are used in a wide variety of applications such as home positioning system provided for tracking persons in the house. However, signals of position sensors may be interfered by barriers easily. In addition, the identification of persons may be insufficient by merely one type of position sensors.
A conventional home positioning system comprises a plurality of transmitters disposed in objects with different codes. A plurality of signal receivers disposed at a ceiling. Every four of signal receivers define a square receiving grid. A processing module calculates signals from the signal receivers and takes three highest signals of four signal receivers to define a triangular area so as to simply define the position of the object.
Nevertheless, the conventional home positioning system is unable to identify ID information of persons.
The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the disadvantages of the conventional home positioning system.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The main objective of the present invention is to provide an improved home positioning system.
To achieve the objective, a home intellectual positioning system for use in a house, the system includes a power supply, a sound sensor, a thermal sensor, an identification unit and an intellectual processor. The sound sensor is provided for detecting and tracking a sonic wave of a home member to generate a sonic wave value. The thermal sensor is provided for detecting and tracking a body temperature of the home member to generate a body temperature value. The identification unit is provided for storing sonic wave information and body temperature information of a plurality of home members. The intellectual processor is interconnected to the identification unit, and to compare the sonic wave value of the sound sensor with the sonic wave information of the identification unit and the body temperature value of the thermal sensor with the body temperature information of the identification unit to identify which home member stays in the house.
Preferably, the identification unit further stores ID information of each home member such as name, sex, age, height, body conformation, medical record. Also, the identification unit further stores environmental information which is renewable, wherein the environmental information includes indoor temperature.
Preferably, the sonic wave information includes sounds of voice and sounds of walking step; and the body temperature information includes day and night body temperature information and body temperature information in various seasons.
Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.



BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the home intellectual positioning system of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a flow chart of the home intellectual positioning system of the present invention;
FIG. 3 illustrates that single home member is located in the house in which the home intellectual positioning system of the present invention is disposed; and
FIGS. 4-5 illustrate that two home members are occupied in the house shown in FIG. 3.



DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Referring to FIGS. 1-3, a home intellectual positioning system in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a power supply 1, a sound sensor 2, a thermal sensor 3, an identification unit 4 and an intellectual processor 5. The power supply 1 could be mains supply or battery, which is provided electric power for above devices.
The home intellectual positioning system is disposed in a house for identifying a plurality of home members in the house. The sound sensor 2 in the house is provided for detecting and tracking a sonic wave of any one home member and to generate a sonic wave value. The thermal sensor 3 is provided for detecting and tracking a body temperature of the home member and to generate a body temperature value. The identification unit 4 is provided for storing sonic wave information and body temperature information of home members.
With reference to FIGS. 1-2, the intellectual processor 5 is interconnected to the identification unit 4. The intellectual processor 5 is configured to read the sonic wave value from the sound sensor 2 and the body temperature value from the thermal sensor 3, and further to compare the sonic wave value of the sound sensor 2 with the sonic wave information of the identification unit 4 and the body temperature value of the thermal sensor 3 with the body temperature information of the identification unit 4 to identify which home member stays in the house, as shown in FIG. 3.
Referring to FIGS. 4-5, there are two home members in the house while the sound sensor 2 and the thermal sensor 3 are provided to detect and track sonic waves and body temperatures of the two home members and to generate two sonic wave values and two body temperature values. The intellectual processor 5 compares each sonic wave value of the respective home member with the sonic wave information of the identification unit 4 to generate two sound identification values, and also compares each body temperature value of the respective home member with the body temperature information of the identification unit 4 to generate two body temperature identification values. The two sound identification values and the two body temperature identification values could be cross compared to be double checked. Therefore, the home intellectual positioning system could exactly track every home member in the house.
Furthermore, the identification unit 4 could further store ID information of each home member and environmental information. The ID information includes name, sex, age, height, body conformation, and medical record of each home member. The environmental information includes indoor temperature, which is provided the intellectual processor 5 with error correction.
Specifically, the sonic wave information includes sounds of voice and sounds of walking step for every home member. Further, the body temperature information includes day and night body temperature information, and body temperature information in various seasons or emotions. The thermal sensor 3 could detect a body temperature distribution of every home member. Since every home member has their own body temperature distribution, the accuracy of body temperature identification is increased.
Although embodiments of this invention have been fully described with reference to the accompanying drawings, it is to be understood that various modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
