  • Patent number: 10049509
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for transmitting apparatus-related information in real time. The system comprises at least one server in signal communication with at least one external apparatus in a wired or wireless way. While an abnormality of an external apparatus occurs, the external apparatus transmits a set of abnormality information to the server. After an information receiving interface of the server receives the set of abnormality information transmitted by the external apparatus, an information processing module vocally broadcasts the set of abnormality information. An information transmitting module transmits the set of abnormality information to the client device of at least one assigned related person. While an external apparatus suffers abnormality, the system can inform the related persons in real time to repair the external apparatus instantly.
