Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying data at an incident scene is provided herein. During operation an officer will be assigned to a particular incident having an identified “incident type”. Individuals at the incident scene are identified via facial recognition and criminal histories for all recognized individuals are obtained. The incident type will be used to determine criminal histories relevant to the incident type. Only the criminal histories of those individuals at the incident scene that are relevant to the incident type will be displayed (ideally displayed proximate to the identified individuals).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for PTT over IoT is described herein. During operation IoT devices will be dynamically added to a particular talkgroup. The particular devices added to the talkgroup will be based on a current public-safety event along with a location of the public-safety officer.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for identifying individuals using augmented-reality is provided herein. During operation individuals at an incident scene are identified via facial recognition. Residence information for the identified individuals is determined, and the individuals are highlighted in the augmented-reality system based on how far they reside from the incident scene.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for PTT over IoT is described herein. During operation each IoT device will be assigned to a talkgroup. Some talkgroups may have a single IoT device assigned, and other talkgroups may have multiple IoT devices assigned. During operation, an action command is received over a first talkgroup and a first command type is issued to a first IoT device assigned to that talkgroup. A second action command is received over a second talkgroup and a second command type is issued to a second IoT device assigned to the second talkgroup.

Abstract: An Internet of Things (IoT) device contact section of a user address book will be created for devices accessing IoT devices. IoT devices will appear in the various sections of a user's contact list. For example, recently-accessed IoT devices may appear in the “recently called” section of the user's contacts, favorite IoT devices may appear in a “favorites” section of the user's contacts, and/or nearby IoT devices may appear in a “nearby IoT devices” section of the user's contacts.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for coordinating applications between incident-area networks (IANs) are provided herein. During operation an application server (serving as an app store within an IAN) will monitor all IAN Apps stores that are on scene (at an incident). All app stores on scene will share information regarding the content/applications they can provide. When a connected radio requests particular content from an IAN, the application server will determine a best app store to provide the content. The connected radio will be directed to hand over to the appropriate IAN app store to retrieve the content.

Abstract: A trolley for transporting individuals of limited capacity in a sedentary position on a chair is disclosed. The aforesaid trolley comprises (a) a carrying structure and (b) at least three wheels rotatably secured to the structure within a perimeter thereof. The carrying structure is configured for releasably fixating legs of the chair such that the chair is reversibly mountable on the carrying structure.
