Description:
BACKGROUND 
       [0001]    All references cited in this specification, and their references, are incorporated by reference herein where appropriate for teachings of additional or alternative details, features, and/or technical background. 
         [0002]    Disclosed is a smart jewelry system as distinguished from common jewelry systems some of which are even capable of expressing a user&#39;s emotional state albeit through manual manipulation of certain parts of the system. Among them is “Jewelry System and Method for Expressing Emotional State” described by Anita Scott in her US Patent Publication No: 2011/0209501 A1 as follows: 
         [0003]    The jewelry system  100  shown in  FIG. 1  includes a body member  110  having a front  120  and a back face  130  (shown facing the reader) oppositely disposed to the front face  120 , where various emotional states are shown. For illustrative purposes, back face  130  is shown here indicating in detail the various emotional states. When in use, back surface  130  rests on user&#39;s body (not shown) while front surface  120  rests away from the user&#39;s person; thus, front surface  120  is viewable by the general public. As such, front surface  120  can include attractive and decorative designs such as floral design. Noting however that body member  110  can also be worn such that front surface  120  rests on the user&#39;s body, while back surface  130  is away from the user&#39;s person, thus viewable by the public. The position of a bead  150  as explained further below expresses the user&#39;s current emotional state to the general public. The jewelry system further includes one or more detachable charms (not shown) reflecting one&#39;s love or grief for someone. 
         [0004]    As Anita Scott describes in detail, the grief stages are listed in the order of occurrence below each other on surface  130 . Here, the first grief stage is shock  132 . The next grief stage is denial  134  (below shock  132 ). Denial  134  is followed by guilt  136 . Guilt  136  is followed by anger  138 , bargaining  140 , depression  142 , hope  144 , and finally survivor  146 . The emotional states shown are not exhaustive, according to Anita. Other emotional states can be displayed. Back surface  130  also comprises a means for selecting any one of the plurality of emotional states. Specifically, said means is bead of acknowledgment system  160 . Bead of acknowledgment system  160  comprises pin  154  and smart bead  150 . A smart bead has a silicone lining through an aperture (not shown). The silicone allows the smart bead to clutch onto pin  154 . In this manner, smart bead  150  is maneuverable along pin  154  and remains in place when positioned by the user. User can move smart bead  150  upwards and downwards along pin  154  according to the user&#39;s current emotional state. Pin  150  is itself incorporated at its proximal end  158  and its distal end  152  into a contiguous groove or channel  156 . In operation, the user wishing to utilize the system described begins by grasping jewelry system  100  in the palm of one hand. Here, if user is unfamiliar with the various grief stages, the user can slide smart bead  150  along pin  160  to study each of the various stages. In this manner, the system can assist users to become aware of the various grief stages and at what stage they might possibly be. 
         [0005]    Prior art as shown in the References below, provides examples of many other types of wearable devices for the purposes for not only expressing one&#39;s emotions but also for monitoring activities at a body surface, and for that matter, changing the artistic appearance of jewelry worn on a body surface electronically. In contribution to these endeavors, a smart jewelry system disclosed herein and described further below in Detailed Description section provides a culmination of various wearable aspects into a single device capable of performing a plethora of expressive functions into a single electronic unit.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
       [0032]    In embodiments there is illustrated 
         [0033]    a smart jewelry system comprising an electronic/smart gemstone configured to pair with a mobile device to connect with loved ones or fans through an application specific traffic management cloud system capable of pinging specifically designated devices. The smart gemstone is personalized with customized logo and symbol carvings such that the gemstone is capable of emotionally connecting with a social network of two or more related people such as family, friends, and fans of a team having a common theme carvings on the semi-transparent smart gemstone worn by the same group of people that comprise the users of the cloud system server. When a user of the application software pings the other user or users wearing or carrying the disclosed semi-transparent or translucent smart-gem equipped with electronic Light-Emitting-Diodes (LEDs) special light effect blinks a pattern on the gem of the worn with a wireless communication command from the proximately receiving mobile communication devices such as tablets or cell phones. In addition to light patterns, the electronics embedded in the smart gemstone can inject electro-neural signals into the two point contact electrodes protruding from the backside of the gemstone and making contact with the body of the wearer when pinged by a faraway pinging party. For illustrative purposes, consider soccer team Barcelona scores a goal. With a ping generated by the bodily sensations generated of a soccer club member watching the game to club of jewelry wearer&#39;s network, the bodies of those members of the same club actively wearing the disclosed Smart-Gem jewelry would be triggered with the electro-neurological signal patterns in such a way so as to feel the same sensational impulses in addition to observing special light effects on their jewelry. Still another aspect of the disclosed smart electronic jewelry system is the direct wireless charging capability through audio-port of the mobile device having an audio channel. Still another aspect is charging through any available wireless power transfer device or charging through the charge port of the device, such as for example, when the smart jewelry is kept in a safe box. 
         [0034]    More specifically,  FIG. 2  shows a plurality of components of the disclosed system  200  comprising electronically smart jewelry objects  210 ′,  210 ″,  210 ′″ . . .  210   n , worn or carried by at least two or more people  220 ′,  220 ″,  220 ′″ . . .  220   n  at their respective locations  225 ′,  225 ″,  225 ′″ . . .  225   n , and an associated cloud computing  230  with server  235 . Persons  220 ′,  220 ″,  220 ′″ . . .  220   n  may have social relationships such as family, friend or fans of a club, each preferably having a mobile electronic device (smart-phone, tablet, etc.)  240 ′,  240 ″,  240 ′″ . . .  240   n  capable of communicating with cloud server  235 . 
         [0035]    An aspect of the disclosed system is an application software program that is shared by each of the mobile electronic devices  240 ′,  240 ″,  240 ′″ . . .  240   n  in order to be able to ping only each other through cloud server  235  in cloud  230 . In other words, individuals with an accepted social relationship can install the common application software in their mobile devices and give each other permissions to allow pinging when desired. As an example, a user person  220 ′ at location  225 ′ with a mobile device  240 ′ can create a ping through his or her user profile in the application specific traffic management cloud server  235  directed to selected profiles of say, persons  220 ″,  220 ′″ at locations  225 ″,  225 ′″ in his/her social network using the configured Smart-Gem activated jewelry  210 ″,  210 ′″ each having a logo/symbol that is a part of a family of logos/symbols carved on the device as explained in more detail later below. The application software of the receiving end user mobile devices  210 ″,  210 ′″ checks server  235  to see if there is any ping request directed to their particular Smart-Gem jewelry device or module. The connection to the specific server, such as  235  is allowed through cellular mobile access base stations  250 ′,  250 ″,  250 ′″ . . .  250   n  that relay the ping requests to this particular server  235 . If the application program receives such a request, the software commands a translucent Smart-Gem (explained further below) in the smart jewelry activate the blinking pattern unique to a particular mood/message and lighting up the common theme symbol, say a star  310  shown in  FIG. 2 , carved on the smart gemstone accordingly. This local wireless connection to jewelry items can utilize any wireless communication standards such as Bluetooth or WiFi. 
         [0036]    Still another aspect of the Smart-Gem Jewelry system  200  wirelessly connects a particular social network of people  220 ′,  220 ″,  220 ′″ . . .  220   n  through a particularly carved Smart-Gem  300  signaling a particular graphical and illuminated message (a star like appearance  310  for illustrative purposes here, as shown in both  FIGS. 2 and 3 - a ,  3 - b ) that is activated by the cloud based ping-blink traffic management software  235 ′ (shown in  FIG. 2 ) loaded onto the cloud server  235 . Smart-gem  300  itself, displaying the blinking signal message can be attached to any jewelry accessory item such as schematically shown necklaces  210 ′,  210 ″, ring  210 ′″, bracelet  210   n  in  FIG. 2 . Smart-Gem  300  comprises appurtenances  320  such as hooks that enable attachability to a carrier  330  such as a necklace, wristband and the like. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the Smart-Gem  300  can be installed on any suitable object that can be worn or carried by the user. 
         [0037]    The presently disclosed Smart-Gem  300  is better seen enlarged in  FIG. 3 - b . Smart-Gem  300  comprises a precious or semiprecious translucent gemstone such as a garnet (not shown) cut in any desired shape, including a circular or rectangular shape  305  as shown for illustrative purposes in  FIG. 3 - b . Gemstone has a front side  305 ′ (not shown) and an opposing backside  305  carved out to receive an electronic subassembly  315  comprising a circuit board including an array of Light-Emitting-Diodes (LEDs)  317  which can be patterned into a desired graphical form, such as star  310  and bi-phasic neuro-stimulus electronics with two point contact electrodes  380  and  385  shown in  FIG. 3 - b  touching the wearer. LEDs  317  can flash with the desired pattern and the electrodes are driven with the desired neurological electro-stimulus signals when commanded through any one of mobile devices  220 ′,  220 ″,  220 ′″ . . .  220   n  shown in  FIG. 2  and paired with a wireless module  340  inside the electronic subassembly  315 . The semi-transparent precious or semiprecious gemstone  300 , including at least one or more appurtenances  320  is attached to jewelry and sealed. It will be evident to those skilled in the art that the translucent character of the gemstone  300  is such that it has the appearance of a desired jewelry while at the same time hiding the subassembly electronics  315 . That is to say, while the backside  305  is sealed (such as with silicone rubber RTV™, not shown, but showing the two point contact electrodes  380  and  385 ) front side  305 ′ (not shown) has the opacity to hide the electronic components from view, at the same time it has the transparency to display the programmed icons as an ornament of the Smart-Gem  300 . 
         [0038]    Subassembly electronics  315  shown in  FIG. 3 - b  further comprises a controller  340 , wireless charging coils  325 , solar charging cells  360  and a battery charger  370  all embedded in the stone and sealed to be a water proof smart gemstone  300  except for the two wire electrodes  380  and  385  emerging from the sealant RTV, for example, ready to be in intimate contact with the wearer as shown schematically in  FIG. 3 - b . When LEDs  317  are activated, light rays illuminate and expose the shared theme symbol  310 , a star in this example, carved on to the visible side of the stone. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that shared symbol  310  can be the initials of a beloved person, symbol of a constellation for a group of star gazers, a logo of a sports club or a company, shape of a common theme object (heart, flowers etc.) depending upon the common interests of each group of people. Ping-blink traffic management software  235 ′ in cloud server  235  than directs a ping from a mobile device of a particular group as distinguished by their special symbol to the appropriate group having the same special group symbol by pinging their mobile devices  220 ′,  220 ″,  220 ′″ . . .  220   n  shown in  FIG. 2 . 
         [0039]    For illustrative purposes,  FIGS. 4 - a, b, c  show a ring  405 , a pendant  415  on a necklace, and a men&#39;s expandable bracelet  425 , respectively, engraved with a logo  310 , which is a star for illustrative purposes here, but in an unpinged normal dimmed state, and hence barely visible in contrast with the brilliancy of the jewel that is being worn.  FIGS. 4 - d, e, f , on the other hand, show the instant in which the logos  310  are lit up (in bold) the instant pinged from one of the users. 
         [0040]      FIGS. 5 - a, b, c  and  FIGS. 5 - d, e, f , on the other hand, show the similar accessories, namely, a ring  505 , a pendant  515  on a necklace, and a men&#39;s expandable bracelet  525 , respectively, in pinged (that is, lit-up) state; however,  FIGS. 5 - a, b, c  show pinging/messaging among members of one group different from the pinging/messaging taking place among the members of a different group of  FIGS. 5 - d, e, f , each group having a different secondary logos  510  (concentric circles) and  510 ′ (a circle inside a polygon) superimposed on the master logo  310  (star) for all, to distinguish between the two groups within the larger group encompassing the two groups, in this illustrative case. It will be understood for those skilled in the art that there can be an infinite n number of such groups having n number of superimposed secondary logos/icons which are distinctly recognizable as secondary groups within a larger universe of all accordingly by the traffic management software  235 ′ of cloud server  235  of  FIG. 2 . 
         [0041]    In operation, a ping from a member of a group, say a sports club member is immediately directed to other members of the same group. In a further aspect of the presently disclosed Smart-Gem Jewelry System &amp; Associated Cloud Server, traffic management program  235 ′ is capable of pinging an emotional message, for example, across different groups by lighting up an appropriate symbol, such as happiness for a newly born baby, or sympathy for the loss of a loved one, and so on as those skilled in the art can contemplate other expressive graphics for various occasions. This feature is accomplished by superimposing still another special symbol (emoticon) for the occasion over the existing master symbol  310  commonly shared by all members of all the groups as it will be evident that the array of LEDs  317  on the electronic subassembly  315  is capable of generating any combination of graphics with various intensities and configurations. Emoticons reside in cloud server  235  and can be activated by a separate application program (not shown) provided in the mobile devices of all members of the groups having access to the cloud server  235 . 
         [0042]    Another aspect of the presently disclosed battery operated Smart-Gem  300  is the wireless charging though component  370  that is incorporated into the electronic subassembly  315  shown in  FIG. 3 . Wireless charging is accomplished through wireless coupling of component  370  with the associated mobile device carried by the user of Smart-Gem  300 , say user  220 ′ in position  225 ′ in  FIG. 2 . The presently disclosed wireless charging of Smart-Gem  300  utilizes two different modes; namely, charging through universal audio port of the mobile device of the user, or thorough power and communication port of the mobile device of the user. 
         [0043]      FIG. 6  discloses a first portable charging device through universal audio jack port  245 ′ of mobile device  240 ′ of user  220 ′ of  FIG. 2 . A wireless charging device  600  comprises a multi-layer circuit board  610  having planar transmission coil windings  620  (dashed lines) and  630  (solid lines), and a headphone emulation load R  605 . When activated through a charging application program in mobile device  240 ′, audio jack port  245 ′ provides differential full swing audio-band AC signal to the left and right ( 640 ,  645 ) connectors on port and creates a magnetic field to be coupled to the receiver coil  350  and electronics  315  embedded in the Smart-Gem  300  of  FIG. 3 - b  when placed on charging device  600 . The full-strength artificial audio signal that is fed into the headphone audio drivers of the phone, tablet or any other type of mobile electronic device with headphone jack port, say a full-swing 10 KHz sine tone swinging in positive signal polarity at the right channel of the stereo and opposite polarity negative signal at the left channel of the stereo creates large current into an headphone emulation load formed by the series combination of R  605  and the multi-layer charging coil  620  and  630  of  FIG. 6 . In this manner, largest amount of current possible is drawn from the driver combining the drive strengths from both the left and right stereo channels by emulating a real headphone load but in reality serving another purpose; namely transferring the power to the smart-gem. Thus, with the presently disclosed left-channel and right-channel opposite polarity drive scheme, since the applied signal is arranged to be a differential opposite signals, ground port of the audio jack is not even needed. Both channels use the same ground reference on the phone board (not shown). It will be obvious to those in the art that the two-layer printed circuit board (PCB)  610  can include many more layers of windings and ferrite material coating to increase the power transfer efficiency to the power receiving Smart-Gem  300 . Efficient external coils with many more windings rather than the embedded planer PCB coils may also be employed to maximize the charging efficiency and speed. 
         [0044]      FIG. 7  discloses a second portable charging device  700  that connects directly to the power and communication port  255 ′ of mobile device  240 ′ through a matching male connector  750 . The charging electronic circuits  760  generate the drive waveforms by additional power circuitry that taps into battery  765  of the device directly and generates the necessary AC drive current into the multi-layer planar PCB coil  770  to wirelessly charge the disclosed Smart-Gem  300 . 
         [0045]    A jewelry storage box  800  shown in  FIG. 8  provides further convenience in keeping the presently disclosed Wireless Charging Smart-Gem  300  charged automatically when it is placed or dropped from an opening having a lid  890  into the box for storage as shown in  FIG. 9 . The electronically configured jewelry storage box  800  shown schematically in  FIG. 8  comprises a multi-layered printed circuit board (PCB)  810  secured on four pedestals  805  installed at four corners of the rectangular box. It will be evident to those skilled in the art that the box can be made of any desired material such as wood, metal, glass with lining, etc., and the shape of the box can be circular, octagonal or any other shape, and the raised floor secured onto pedestals  805  can be accomplished in many other different ways which will not be discussed here further in order not to unnecessarily obscure the present disclosure of the box. Furthermore, the electronic circuits are printed and components mounted on the bottom side  810 ′ of the Printed Circuit Board, as depicted under a shaded surface  810 . It will be noted that top surface  810  does not include any electronic components to allow smooth surface where the wirelessly chargeable Smart-Gem  300  jewelry can be placed or simply dropped onto ( FIG. 9 ). If desired, the wireless power transmit coil winding traces  820  and  830  shown to be two layers can be printed on the top surface  800  since they are very thin so as to not incur any rough surface, although they are shown here towards the bottom surface  810  for illustrative purposes. The charging electronics  840 , universal micro-USB (not shown) or any other universal female power connector  850 , turn-ON and LED switches  860 ,  870 , respectively, are placed on the back surface  810  of the PCB  800  where socket openings  880  are provided for a universal wall charger (not shown) to have access to a wall outlet  887 . The electronically configured jewelry box  800  as presently disclosed in  FIG. 8  can be disconnected readily by pulling the electrical cord  885  from the wall outlet  887 , or disconnecting cord  885  from the socket openings  880  on the side of the jewelry box. It will be known to those skilled in the art that if desired, an additional pushbutton switch can be used to activate or deactivate the box charger. 
         [0046]    A further aspect of the jewelry box  900  is shown in  FIG. 9  wherein lid  890  of the box is fitted with a solar panel  895  and associated energy lines  897  that connect the solar panel  895  to the electronic subassembly  810  of jewelry box  800  of  FIG. 8 . The user can always unplug box  900  fitted now with a solar panel lid from the wall  887  and carry the jewel box anywhere to expose its solar panel  895  to sunlight so that the battery (not shown) in box  800 / 900  can recharge for wirelessly recharging a Smart-Gem  300  with its associated jewelry, such as men&#39;s expandable bracelet  425  is dropped into the box shown in  FIG. 9  anytime and anywhere. 
         [0047]    Though these numerous details of the disclosed device have been set forth here, such as electronic components installed or embedded into a gemstone and associated wireless chargers including energy captured from solar cells of the presently disclosed Wireless Charging Smart-Gem Jewelry System &amp; Associated Cloud Server, it is to be understood that these details of the present disclosure have been described by way of illustration and not limitation. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that there are other specific details which are inherent in the Smart-Gem, such as, for example, the device can be made to operate on a private mode where only confidential information may be displayed by the clicking of a special icon or can be put on a public mode by clicking the same or another icon for, say, displaying the time of the day, weather or other public information that is readily available elsewhere. The device can also be programmed to go to public mode after a set time when not in use. Furthermore, a code can also be entered remotely to move from one mode to another for security purposes.
