Patent number: 12293676Abstract: The disclosed technology provides for generating simulation training models that can be used to prepare people (i.e., building occupants, first responders) to safely and calmly respond to emergencies, such as fires in high-rise buildings. Using the training models, people can better cope with decision-making during emergencies. The disclosed technology also uses signaling devices, wearables, and other devices and sensors distributed throughout a building to provide egress or stay-in-place guidance to people located in the building during an emergency. Audio and/or visual information can be outputted to people to guide them along a safe pathway that is selected to provide safe egress for the person, including anticipating and protecting the person from changing emergency conditions within the building and in response to how the person responded to the simulation training models.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2024Date of Patent: May 6, 2025Assignee: TABOR MOUNTAIN LLCInventors: Russell G. Derickson, Susan R. Hilliard

Patent number: 12223819Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for providing distributed security event monitoring. The system can include a central monitoring system and sensor devices positioned throughout a premises that passively detect conditions and emit signals guiding people on the premises when a security event is detected. The sensor devices can include suites of sensors and can transmit detected conditions to the central monitoring system.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2023Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: Tabor Mountain LLCInventors: Edward Michael Donegan, William Delmonico, Joseph Schmitt

Patent number: 12214283Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods provide for generating real-time egress plans for users in a building, based on the users' current locations. As the users' current locations change, egress plans associated with the users can be dynamically modified in real-time. The egress plans can also be generated, modified, and/or trained based on inputted information about the user. The disclosed technology can include a mobile application for presenting, in a centralized interface, information about user-specific egress plans, training the user for different emergency scenarios, improving or changing features in the building to improve safety, and user profiles. The mobile application can include training simulation games to help prepare the users to safely egress during an emergency. The disclosed technology can also predict building component and structure emergency risk levels. The disclosed technology can also designate zones in the building based on possible egress routes.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2023Date of Patent: February 4, 2025Assignee: Tabor Mountain LLCInventors: Bill Delmonico, Joseph Schmitt

Patent number: 12205447Abstract: The disclosed system can determine egress guidance during a building emergency using artificial intelligence (AI). The system can include sensors positioned throughout the building to detect building conditions and a computing system to determine egress guidance in the building. The computing system can perform operations including: receiving, from the sensors, information indicating the building conditions, detecting, based on processing the conditions, an emergency in the building, determining, based on applying AI techniques to the information, scenarios indicating potential spreads of the emergency, generating, based on the determined scenarios, egress guidance to assist users in safely egressing from the building. The egress guidance can include at least one egress strategy instructing the users to move along a pathway that avoids the emergency and the potential spreads of the emergency.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2023Date of Patent: January 21, 2025Assignee: Tabor Mountain LLCInventor: Russell G. Derickson

Patent number: 12115402Abstract: In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, at a computer system, information that indicates that a fire has been detected in a building and that a fire suppression system within the building has begun dousing the fire; monitoring sensor information from one or more sensors located within the building; determining, by the computer system and based on the sensor information, whether the fire has been extinguished; activating, in response to determining that the fire has been extinguished, a feature to turn off a water supply to the building, the feature being presented on a computing device for a user who is associated with the building; receiving, after activating the feature and from the computing device, a command to turn off the water supply; and transmitting, by the computer system, a control signal that causes an electromechanical device to close a water valve within the building.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2023Date of Patent: October 15, 2024Assignee: Tabor Mountain LLCInventors: Joseph Schmitt, Michael Kramer, Ronak Desai, Randall Kurtz

Patent number: 11756399Abstract: The disclosed technology uses signaling devices and sensors that are distributed throughout a building in order to provide egress guidance to people located in a building when an emergency occurs. Such signaling devices can be located at or near doors, windows, and/or other junction points between different parts of a building (e.g., passageways between different rooms). Signaling devices can provide audio and/or visual information to people to guide them along a safe pathway that is selected to provide safe egress for the person, including anticipating and protecting the person from changing emergency conditions within the building.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2022Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Tabor Mountain LLCInventor: Russell G.
