  • Publication number: 20250140101
    Abstract: Described herein are systems, devices, methods, and media for an emergency response data exchange system. The system provides an operations center emergency management application with a textual and/or graphical notification of emergency communications initiated on a premises managed by the operations center. The system exchanges operations center data (e.g., floorplans, video feeds, point of contact information, building access controls) with an emergency communications center (ECC) and/or with a first responder device to facilitate reducing emergency response times. The system selectively establishes communications (e.g., messaging windows) between the operations center, ECC, and/or first responder device to facilitate real-time information sharing between relevant parties of an emergency.

  • Patent number: 12288459
    Abstract: An emergency response data system (ERDS) provides artificial intelligence (AI)-based emergency notifications to operations centers using radio-based dispatches from emergency communications center (ECC). The ERDS receives audio data of a radio-based dispatch of first responders to a location of an initiated emergency communication. The ERDS provides the audio data to an AI model with a prompt to transcribe the audio data into a radio dispatch transcript. The ERDS provides the radio dispatch transcript to the AI model with a prompt to analyze the radio dispatch transcript to extract a location of the initiated emergency communication from the radio dispatch transcript. The ERDS provides an AI-based emergency notification to an emergency response application that is operable to display the AI-based emergency notification on an operations center computing system. The AI-based emergency notification includes the location of the initiated emergency communication.

  • Patent number: 12041525
    Abstract: A system and method for generating and transmitting emergency messages and for maintaining real-time emergency communications sessions between users and emergency dispatch centers. A system receives data transmitted from a user device and constructs an emergency message related to a specific type of emergency scenario as well as the location, meta-data and background information of the user. The generated emergency message is transmitted via a communications network and delivered to an appropriate emergency dispatch center. The method enables the user to deliver a detailed request for help regardless of his or her location or, in another instance, delivers the basic emergency response related information for the user. The generated emergency message is universally compatible with emergency communications center infrastructure so long as the communications centers possess basic voice call equipment.
