Abstract
A computer device generates a response to an emergency being reported by a plurality of sensor devices. The memory contains a sensor data engine and a determinant code calculator. The computer device determines the likelihood of an emergency based on received sensor data and, in some embodiments, answers received from an information provider. The sensor data engine receives external sensor data, determines data values associated with the external sensor data, and calculates an emergency likelihood based on the data values. The determinant code calculator generates a determinant code based on the calculated likelihood, and provides the code to an emergency responder system to generate an emergency dispatch response.
Claims27
A system for assisting in responding to an emergency being reported by an information provider, the system comprising:
- one or more computing devices comprising at least one processor and memory storing instructions, which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the one or more computing devices to perform operations comprising:
- receiving answers from an information provider to pre-programmed inquiries associated with an emergency protocol;
- receiving sensor data from one or more devices via a network;
- generating, based on the received answers to the pre-programmed inquiries and the sensor data, a determinant code indicating a priority of an emergency response;
- determining an accuracy of the determinant code based at least on weighting the sensor data such that evidence of a past event will weigh in favor of an emergency incident;
- and
- providing the determinant code to an emergency responder system to generate an emergency dispatch response.
A method to assist in responding to an emergency being reported by an information provider, comprising:
- receiving, at one or more processors, answers from an information provider to pre-programmed inquiries associated with an emergency protocol;
- receiving, at the one or more processors, sensor data from one or more devices via a network;
- generating, by the one or more processors, a determinant code based on the received answers to the pre-programmed inquiries and the sensor data, the determinant code indicating a priority of an emergency response;
- determining, by the one or more processors, an accuracy of the determinant code based at least on weighting the sensor data such that evidence of a past event will weigh in favor of an emergency incident;
- and
- providing the determinant code to an emergency responder system to generate an emergency dispatch response.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- receive, at the one or more processors, answers from an information provider to pre-programmed inquiries associated with an emergency protocol;
- receive, at the one or more processors, sensor data from one or more devices via a network;
- generate, by the one or more processors, a determinant code based on the received answers to the pre-programmed inquiries and the sensor data, the determinant code indicating a priority of an emergency response;
- determine, by the one or more processors, an accuracy of the determinant code based at least on weighting the sensor data such that evidence of a past event will weigh in favor of an emergency incident;
- and
- provide the determinant code to an emergency responder system to generate an emergency dispatch response.
