A peer-to-peer system for providing egress guidance. Each of a plurality of egress advisement devices can receive an indication of an emergency in a building and user presence information, transmit to a cloud data store a request for one or more egress plans, receive from the cloud data store a subset of the egress plans that are identified by matching a location identifier for each of the subset of the plans with the location information of the egress advisement device, locally select one of the subset of the plans that is customized for a location of the egress advisement device, a current location of users in the building in proximity to the egress advisement device, and a location of the emergency, and output the selected plan to guide one or more of the users in proximity to the egress advisement device to exit the building.

In some implementations, systems and techniques are described to automatically unlock a front door of a property in response to detecting an alarm signal indicating an emergency at or near a property. Data indicating occurrence of an emergency condition at a property is initially obtained. A lock configuration for an electronic lock of the property is determined. An unlock instruction is generated for the electronic lock based on the determined lock configuration for the electronic lock. The unlock instruction is transmitted to the electronic lock such that, when the unlock instruction is received by the electronic lock, the electronic lock is unlocked according to the unlock instruction.

Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, apparatus, and systems for mass notification including receiving the message from an alarm notification device via a link and causing the projector to project the message on a surface using the light patterns.

Systems, methods, and computer program products for detecting, locating, and identifying gunshots. In response to detecting a discharge of a firearm, a discharge alert indicating one or more characteristics of the discharge is transmitted to a gunshot location system. The one or more characteristics of the discharge are compared to one or more characteristics of one or more gunshots detected by the gunshot location system based on acoustic signals received at one or more listening stations. In response to finding a match between the one or more characteristics of the discharge and the one or more characteristics of acoustically detected gunshot, the gunshot is associated with the firearm.

A processor may receive data regarding an emergency event. The processor may identify, using an artificial intelligence model, one or more features regarding the emergency event. The processor may determine that the one or more features are associated with one or more emergency response tasks. The processor may generate an action plan that incorporates the one or more emergency response tasks. The processor may output the action plan to a user.

The Emergency Automatic Gunshot Lockdown (EAGL) System detects gunshots and executes at least one predetermined adaptive response action, such as notifying law enforcement of an active shooter, providing access control measures such as locking down soft target areas, and alerting building occupants of an active shooter situation. A gunshot is detected and verified using a triple validation system. Once a firearm is discharged, the EAGL system sends “real time” data to building officials, law enforcement, and building occupants notifying them of an active shooter situation. Simultaneously, predetermined commands are sent to access control devices for perimeter, office, classroom, and other soft target areas to lockdown and stay secure, to keep the shooter from entering these soft target areas, and to prevent shooter from entering other buildings.

A system for communicating information to a person in a local area. The system includes a device arranged noticeable by the person and a power source arranged to power the device. The system further includes a relay arranged in-between the power source and the device, and a control unit arranged to generate a control signal in response to an event. The relay is arranged to connect the device to the power source in absence of the control signal, and to temporarily disconnect the device from the power source in response to the control signal generated by the control unit, thereby communicating the information to the person.

Embodiments of systems, apparatus, and/or methods are described for enhanced situational awareness of parties associated with responding to an incident, such as an emergency situation, by assigning response resources to a scene of the incident. The disclosed system provides an electronic platform for collaboration or partnership involving two or more parties. In some partnership embodiments, the disclosed system provides a ranked list of potentially available resources that can be assigned to respond to the incident. For example, the potential candidates can be mobile emergency units belonging to a first responder and/or its partner(s). Various beneficial aspects of partnerships and their technical implementations are discussed in detailed herein.
