System and method for group search-based lost bag search and recovery

摘要

A system and a method are disclosed for group search-based lost bag search and recovery. In one embodiment of the invention, the system for group search-based lost bag search and recovery includes a bag/luggage information database and a lost bag group search organizer system, which can identify and organize search groups for lost bag search and recovery based on geographic proximity of search agent devices or a common theme. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, this system is operatively connected to a plurality of devices, such as a consumer's device, a ticket agent's device, a regulatory information database, and one or more search agent devices categorized by search groups. In one example, the one or more search agent devices integrate mobile applications, which detect an electrically-identifiable bag wirelessly within a defined perimeter and report back to the lost bag group search organizer system.
