Wearable panic button

A method implemented by a wearable apparatus, comprising:

• receiving a configuration from a management server;
• receiving an input on a button of the wearable apparatus;
• determining that the input matches a panic sequence stored in a memory of the wearable apparatus;
• activating at least one sensor of the wearable apparatus, at least in part based on the determining;
• producing telemetry data indicating a device identifier of the wearable apparatus, a location of the wearable apparatus, and sensor data from the at least one sensor;
• transmitting the telemetry data to the management server;
• and
• outputting an audio, visual, or haptic output.

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium encoded with instructions that, when executed by a processing unit, cause the processing unit to perform operations comprising:

• receiving telemetry data from a panic button device, the telemetry data indicating a device identifier of the panic button device, a location of the panic button device, and sensor data from at least one sensor of the panic button device;
• determining an event type, at least in part based on a keypress sequence included in the telemetry data;
• determining a role associated with the device identifier;
• determining an emergency checklist, at least in part based on the event type and the role;
• transmitting an emergency request to a public safety access point, the emergency request indicating the event type and the location;
• and
• transmitting the emergency checklist to the panic button device.
