Abstract
Disclosed are systems, methods, and media capable of generating and implementing emergency flows. The emergency flow is highly customizable and can connect with various stakeholders (user, emergency contacts, corporate representatives, emergency service provider personnel, etc.). The systems, methods, and media can be triggered in various ways including user input (e.g. voice command) or by sensors (e.g. by using sound detection capabilities).
Claims14
A system for managing a response to an emergency, comprising:
- a triggering device associated with a user and configured to transmit an emergency alert when triggered by an emergency;
- and
- at least one server providing an emergency management application, the emergency management application configured to:
- maintain at least one database comprising a list of one or more associated devices of the triggering device;
- receive the emergency alert from the triggering device;
- responsive to determining the triggering device is able to host a connection with the at least one server, establish a connection with the triggering device;
- and
- responsive to determining the triggering device is not able to host a connection with the at least one server, connect to at least one of the one or more associated devices in the list, wherein the at least one of the one or more associated devices is authorized by the user to be connected to a dispatch center.
A method for managing a response to an emergency, comprising:
- maintaining, via an emergency management application provided by at least one server, at least one database comprising a list of one or more associated devices of a triggering device associated with a user;
- receiving an emergency alert from the triggering device at the emergency management application, wherein the emergency alert is transmitted from the triggering device associated with the user in response to the triggering device being triggered by an emergency;
- responsive to determining the triggering device is able to host a connection with the at least one server, establishing a connection with the triggering device;
- and
- responsive to determining the triggering device is not able to host a connection with the at least one server, connecting to at least one of the one or more associated devices in the list, wherein the at least one of the one or more associated devices is authorized by the user to be connected to a dispatch center.
