Abstract: A transportation planner and route calculator for alternative travel methods that recommends alternative modes of transport relating to the preferences of the user. Recommendations draw upon preferences generated from the user's profile which is made up of inserted information from the user, travel historical log, a settings application and a method of auto adjusting the user's profile. A calculator unit retrieves one or more generated attributes of the user and obtains various related information such as available public transport, weather forecasts, historical travel log, to calculate travel options that best suit the users needs. The application constantly updates the users profile based on the users travel patterns and preferences, as the application learns more about the user the better the application becomes at recommending travel routes that suite the user's requirements.

Abstract: A tactile communication apparatus that includes a signal receiver configured decode data received via a wireless signal, a tactile communication device containing a plurality of pins on one side, each pin configured to respectively move in both an outward direction and inward direction to form a plurality of pin combinations based on a plurality of activation signals, and a communication processor configured to generate the plurality of pin activation signals based on the received data so as to convey the data to a user through the plurality of pin combinations of the tactile communication device. Data conveyed to the user includes data from external events, such as sporting or theatrical events.

Abstract: A tactile communication apparatus that includes a signal receiver configured to decode data received via a wireless signal a plurality of electro tactile pads on one side, each pad configured to respectively activate and deactivate to form a plurality of pad combinations based on a plurality of activation signals, and a communication processor configured to generate the plurality of electro tactile pad activation signals based on the received data so as to convey the data to a user through the plurality of pad combinations of the tactile communication apparatus.
