Security event detection, recognition and location system

Abstract

A system for detecting the direction of an occurrence of an event from a known point or the location of an event comprising at least two of: a sensor comprising: a microprocessor; a wireless network; an element sensitive to evidence of the event communicating with the microprocessor; and a first Ultra-Wideband Radio module; wherein: the element sensitive to evidence of the event is in communication with the microprocessor allowing the microprocessor to function to detect the event; the first Ultra-Wideband Radio module functions to determine the location of the sensor; the wireless network system allows for the interfacing and sharing of data between the sensor and other components of the system for detecting events; and the system for detecting events functions to multi-laterate the location and time of the event. The use of ultra-wide band radio modules allows for very precise location of events and enhanced communications as compared to conventional systems. It also allows for the correction of GPS locationing and for use inside of structures and other venues where GPS is not effective.
