A system and method for localized data retrieval to disseminate data about points of interest at a display venue, based on a local area network established with a series of commonly named wireless access points operatively connected to a main router. The system is connected to a user's mobile device through an application they are directed to download. Each WAP has a common name and is located about the display venue in close enough proximity to other WAPs so as to constitute an uninterrupted communication platform with the main LDRS computer from which data about the points of interest is polled. Interspersed about the display venue is a series of tracking devices causing nearby mobile devices to self report their location to the LDRS computer.

It is discloses a method and system for measuring and assessing the impact of non-verbal responses of a respondent to a stimulus, the method comprises the steps of presenting a reference stimulus to the respondent; recording immediate non-verbal responses via an imaging device to said presented reference stimulus; presenting a stimulus under test to the respondent; recording immediate non-verbal responses via an imaging device to said presented stimulus under test; presenting a questionnaire with questions on the stimulus under test to the respondent; obtaining verbal responses to the questions; immediately transmitting the recorded image of said non-verbal responses to the reference stimulus and the stimulus under test across a communications network to an image processing unit and after having received said images at said image processing unit automatically calculating emotion probabilities of the non-verbal responses of the respondent from said images; and calculating a emotional intensity score derived from the emotional probabilities. The method described in this invention bridges the gap between verbal self-report and autonomic non-verbal emotional response measurement methods while adding an objective and scientific analyze of non-verbal response to a stimulus.

The invention is directed, in part, to method of using self-reported health data in online communities to predict significant health events in life-changing illnesses to improve the lives of individuals and to improve patient self-management. The invention provides a method for providing real-time personalized medical predictions for an individual patient. The method includes: providing a database containing patient information for a plurality of other patients including one or more attributes for each patient in the database; constructing a model of a disease based on disease progressions for the plurality of patients; receiving a request from the individual patient, the patient associated with one or more attributes; and making a real-time prediction for the individual patient based on the mode and the individual patient's attributes.

The present invention provides a fresh method and system for truly automated online prescription purchases while providing improved security for issuing prescription simultaneously. Within the said online pharmacy network, both patients and doctors (M.D.s) are registered users. Doctors (M.D.s) will be verified by one of the authorities, such as the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS), an organization that maintains a database of physician board certification information on more than 700,000 specialty physicians representing 36 medical specialties and 88 subspecialties. ABMS contains information primary sourced from 24 recognized medical specialty boards, not self reported by physicians, and is fully recognized by key healthcare accreditation organizations for credentialing purposes. Once a doctor's status is verified, he / she has the authority to issue online prescriptions or approve patients' online prescription requests within the said online pharmacy network. Patients who wish to purchase prescription online will register with the said online pharmacy network and provide personal information such as credit card numbers, email addresses, and etc. Once a patient is registered with the said online pharmacy network, he / she has the ability to request an online prescription that will be used towards prescription purchases within the said online pharmacy network. A patient can choose from diverse payment methods and delivery preferences without obtaining or dropping off a conventional paper prescription at a pharmacy that has a physical location for pick-up. The present invention will reduce the likelihood of prescription abuse by avoiding counterfeit paper prescriptions, improve the efficiency of the prescription purchase by automating the processing of prescription writing and dropping off, permitting patients who wish to order discounted prescription drug online without adopting the existing prescription fax-in or mail-in methods.

The invention discloses a Beidou data transmission method based on confirmation mode, wherein a special data encoding method and communication sequential control are adopted, an announcement call function included by a Beidou command terminal is combined, and confirmation for the self-reported data of all telemetering stations in a system is realized in a Beidou data message, so as to avoid the problem of increase for the power consumption of the telemetering stations due to too large time delay caused by a point-to-point confirmation mode; and moreover, communication expense can be greatly saved.
