Image based traffic Signalling

May be a junk concept:

Also not that feasible to implement.

Take a photo of the Road in front of you

Search for the empty area in the photo

If the top portion of the Photo is not heavily populated( still has the color of road), it means that the road is not heavy on traffic.

Based on this decide when to sitch on/off a signal

Mobile Auto Charge

I had thought of this concept when I saw a blinking panel attached to most of the mobile ( for showoff) a few years back.

I was amazed about how the light blinked without power. Then when I learnt telecom I know it was Power transmitted from BTS.

When we can light up an LED then why not charge the mobile?

A power wave is continusoly broadcated to our mobile frequently frm the BTS to locate our Mobile/Keep track of it. The Power radiation can be then amplified and used to fuel the mobile.

We can make the backcover of the mobile as a reciever of such signal and charge the mobile.

SMS Based Door lock

This concept is not my original. I borrowed it from a telecom weekly from Ericson.
Ericson uses a high end telecom network UMTS to make this possible.

The door can be locked or unlocked by sending an SMS.
The Number of users registered can be defined. Its as good as us duplicating the house key.
A motor can lock or unlock a door once it recieves and verifies the SMS. The concept can be used ofr other home appliances also

Get SMS Marks for School

Send SMS and know the details of your child studying in school.
Know his attaendance, Marks,
Also get daily updates on their home work etc....

Visiting Card Reader and map update - frndOnMap ( friendOnMap )

Well to be frank some of the ideas are based on different concepts already available.I have heard a few years back of a samsung phone capable of reading the Visiting card.
Well as always, not very sure if such an app exists. Well if it doesn't then I expect to code it some day in the nearest future.
This idea came after seeing a Android Application for Bar code reading goCart.
We can develop an application for use in Camera phones which can have a snapshot of visiting card and then parse the photo. After parsing the details in the visiting cards are organized and the person detail and location are updated on a Map.
Next time when you are travelling on a particular road and your appl is on you Can know who is around that area whom you know.
For e.g I scan a Visting card of a person in J P Nagar 6th Phase , and 1st main, the next time I go by this route I can see the details of the person who is nearby in my mobile app.Also all his details.

This can always help in case of emergencies.

Bluetooth terminal

How about realtime video streaming via Bluetooth ?
The person connected to the Bluetooth Mobile can see the same video as the One at the source.
This would be similar to the VNC of Mobile via bluetooth. Also we can share music thisway

Central SMS Server

Sometimes you have a mobile with unlimited SMS . But it would be fun if friends can share a common Mobile SMS service over a network.
Also sometimes in Mobile testing application there would be need to continuously generate SMS or Multiple people can share the same Mobile/SIM to send SMS for testing.
Many such applications already exist. But this is my visualization of the implementation.
A PC is connected to the Mobile which can deliver SMS. This PC is web enabled (Hosts a web sever) and hence requests for SMS can be raised by anyone who logs into a web server that resides on the PC connected to the Mobile.
The request for SMS consists of destination and Message and are Logged at the PC in a database and are delivered one after the other.
It would also possible to share a single Mobile for receving SMS. For eg,
1. A person can configure the list of Numbers from which he expects the SMS
2. If the SMS is prepended with the ID of a person then the SMS will be sent to his account.
3. We can chat using this concept
4. Reply messages can be Prepended by Usernames.

Develop a SNMP Trap Alerter system via SMS

The concept is based on SNMP Traps.
For eg. Consider a printer which generate alarms such as "PaperOver","PaperJammed", "InkOver" etc. There can be multiple printers in the network and can be managed via SNMP.
Each of these Printers which are SNMP compliant sends a Trap on each of the above mentioned ERRORS to a centralized system .
The centralized system is attached to a Mobile Phone which can send SMS via COMM port.
On recieving the traps based on the configured Mobile station an SMS can be delivered.
For E.g on recieving error "PaperOver" of "InkOver" the SMS can be sent to a Non-Technical person who can replace the Toner or Put the paper in a Tray. etc....etc. A GUI can exist for configuring the target and the type of alarms to be forwarded for a particular destination.
Also the SMS can be logged before bein sent. Hence the Central system can also act as an NMS.
