Abstract: Systems, apparatus, and methods for occupancy tracking using augmented reality are disclosed herein. An example apparatus includes memory; instructions; and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to detect a first face in image data, the image data generated by image sensors in an environment and including at least a portion of the environment, the first face corresponding to a subject in the environment; define a first facial unit in the image data based on facial features associated with the first face; associate a first virtual object with the first facial unit in the image data; and determine an occupancy metric for the at least the portion of the environment based on the first virtual object and one or more other virtual objects associated with facial units defined in the image data.

Abstract: The present invention is a system guiding an evacuation route for occupants using an augmented reality of mobile devices. The system includes: an occupant's mobile device installed with an evacuation guidance application for showing an evacuation route from a current location of the occupant to an evacuation point in the occurrence of a disaster; and a server providing a plurality of evacuation route information to the mobile device, wherein the mobile device executes the evacuation guidance application to display an evacuation guidance interface, displays a captured landscape image on an image display area of the evacuation guidance interface, displays one of the plurality of evacuation routes set based on specific information related to the type of disaster, the user's exercise ability, and personal conditions on a map display area of the evacuation guidance interface.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for setting an evacuation exit under a crowd emergency evacuation scenario are provided. A simulation model is constructed based on a social force model, and a behavior parameter of an evacuating crowd under the crowd emergency evacuation scenario is obtained by a numerical approximation method with actual trajectory data of individuals in the evacuating crowd under a specific emergency evacuation scenario as a reference; an evacuation exit set is set, an integer programming solution for evacuation exit decision under the emergency evacuation scenario is constructed, and a total evacuation cost of the evacuation exit is obtained based on the simulation model; and reduction of the total evacuation cost is taken as an optimization target to construct an emergency evacuation optimization model based on constraint conditions, and the emergency evacuation optimization model is solved to obtain a recommended integer programming solution for evacuation exit decision.

Abstract: A remote fire detection system includes a plurality of sensor nodes, each comprising a smoke sensor, a temperature sensor, a gas sensor, and a processor having inputs coupled to the outputs of the sensors. The processor processes the sensor signals to generate at least one of smoke, temperature, or gas metric information, and determines a unique time window within a reporting period. A transmitter transmits report generated by the processor during the unique time window within the reporting period. A personnel node includes a location processor that generates location information of the personnel node and a transmitter that transmits the location information. A gateway node includes a receiver that receives reports generated by the plurality of sensor nodes during the unique time window within the reporting period.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a control program that causes a terminal device to execute a process, the terminal device being coupled to an information processing device, the process including displaying an operation screen of the information processing device on a display, determining, when an operation on the displayed operation screen is detected, whether an elapsed time after a timing of a previous operation of the operation screen has exceeded a reference time, transmitting operation information corresponding to the detected operation to the information processing device when it is determined that the elapsed time has not exceeded the reference, and when it is determined that the elapsed time has exceeded the reference, displaying, on the display, a screen that requests an input of identification information that identifies an operation-target information processing device without executing the transmitting.

Abstract: An evacuation system which maintains an active count of people in real time in a location, for example a building or other geographic area with defined boundaries and dynamically calculates the best path for a user or group of users to follow when an emergency situation occurs. The people in the location may be tracked by a user wearable RFID device and may classify the people based on specific needs or other criteria.

Abstract: A database and communications server allow for composure of an emergency disaster plan that is tailored to the demographic and geographic information provided by a subscriber to the disclosed system. In the event of an emergency, relevant portions of a family disaster plan are communicated to a subscriber and the family members of the subscriber. Each subscribing family member may communicate with the database, which in turn automatically distributes the message to all family members. After the disaster has ended, insurance information is relayed to the subscriber, and the subscriber's insurance companies are notified.

Abstract: Method and systems of improving the response of public safety personnel to or evacuation from a desired location are provided. In addition to path information obtained through traditional sources, information is used to determine the optimal route for emergency personnel to an emergency situation and for aiding emergency personnel to route people from the situation. The information may also be used to automatically prioritize vehicles and personnel to optimize response time. Further, the information may also be used to in situations in which it is advantageous for the vehicle or personnel to be tactically positioned in nearby locations rather than at the incident scene. Although the descriptions below will primarily focus on routes to a particular location, similar methods can be used for evacuations from the location. The optimal route may use historical information stored in a database local or remote to the dispatcher and/or real-time information updated during the emergency situation.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for generating emergency plans for a facility are provided. In embodiments, an emergency plan is generated for a designated area of a facility. An alert is received that includes an alert type. The alert type is identified and a plurality of emergency plans associated with the alert type are provided. The plurality of emergency plans includes a primary emergency plan and an alternate emergency plan. A determination is made whether any factors that affect the primary emergency plan are present. If no factors that affect the primary emergency plan are present, the primary emergency plan is displayed to a user. If factors that affect the primary emergency plan are present, the alternate emergency plan is displayed to the user.
