Abstract: An automated personal safety system and method for detecting and communicating unsafe temperature conditions in an automobile is disclosed. The system/method includes a device comprising a temperature sensing unit that senses human body temperature and ambient temperature. A controller in the device detects changes between a programmed threshold temperature and sensed temperatures. When in an automobile, the device communicates unsafe conditions to an automobile electronics panel that reacts accordingly to alleviate the unsafe conditions before any support arrives to the automobile. The temperature data is also constantly monitored by a third party at a remote location. Another embodiment includes a system to detect device malfunctioning in real time and react accordingly to provide assistance.

Abstract: A system to provide safety information to a remote location may include a personal safety device to wirelessly transmit a safety signal, a wireless receiver to receive wireless the safety signal from the personal safety device and a wireless device to receive the signals from the wireless receiver.
