Abstract: The escape assistance arrangement and the escape assistance method guide a user to a safe target position if an alarm situation has occurred in a spatial area and an alarm message has therefore been sent. The user carries an escape assistance device with a vital parameter sensor, a geoposition sensor and an output unit. A navigation unit calculates an escape route for the user, wherein the escape route leads from the current geoposition of the user to the safe target position. The navigation unit generates an escape route description for this escape route. For this purpose, it classifies the user's current state depending on a vital parameter and generates the escape route description depending on the classified current state. The output unit outputs the escape route description.

Abstract: A process for operating a gas sensor (10), which process includes a calibration of the gas sensor (10). A test gas (16) is drawn in via a pump (12) coupled with the gas sensor (10), whereby the test gas (16) is supplied to the gas sensor (10). Different volume flows are generated by the pump (12) and respective volume flow-dependent measured values (26) are detected by the pump (12). The volume flow-dependent measured values (26) are recorded together with the respective volume flow. A sensor control unit and a computer program functioning as a control program (48) are provided to implement the process.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor having a filter arrangement, downstream of which there is arranged a detector arrangement, and an evaluating device connected to the detector arrangement. The filter arrangement has at least a first filter, the suspect filter, and at least one second filter, the reference filter(s). The first filter is configured as a band pass filter allowing the passage of a first predetermined band, the suspect band. The at least one second filter is configured as a band pass filter allowing the passage of a second predetermined band(s), the reference band(s). The detector arrangement has at least one detector associated with at least one of the filters. The band passes reference filters are distributed above and below the band pass of the suspect filter. The sensor with advantage could be utilized within the IR band, and could advantageously be used to detect CO2.
