Systems and methods are provided that include an access point receiving a request from a device to join a first network defined by a first protocol, the access point allocating a slot of a superframe to the device, and the access point allocating remaining slots of the superframe to communication by the access point on a second network defined by a second protocol. Additionally or alternatively, some methods can include the access point enabling a first transceiver communicating via the first protocol and either, when the first transceiver receives first data from the device via the first protocol within a predetermined time of a beginning of the slot, receiving second data from the device via the first protocol for a remainder of the slot or, when the first transceiver module fails to receive the first data, the access point enabling a second transceiver for the remainder of the slot.

An emergency response system (ERS) configured to acquire target terminal location data and emergency responder terminal location data, determine a horizontal distance measure between the emergency responder terminal and each of the plurality of target terminals, determine a vertical distance measure between the emergency responder terminal and each of the plurality of target terminals, engage a camera component of the emergency responder terminal to capture images of at least a portion of the surrounding real-world scene, providing such images for display on the touchscreen display of the emergency responder terminal, and/or providing a target terminal display object for display on the touchscreen of the emergency responder terminal such that, when an image provided for display spans a region of the real-world scene within which a target terminal is located, the target terminal display object dynamically overlays a segment of the image associated with the acquired target terminal location data.

An emergency system can access a variety of situational data items, such as video streams, facility information, and present and past incident data. The emergency system identifies data items that may be relevant to a particular incident and provides the relevant data items in one or more user interfaces. For example, the emergency system identifies relevant data items based on the reported location of the incident and the type of incident. As additional incident information is received or entered by telecommunicators, the emergency system can further filter and surface data items likely to be useful in responding to the incident. Certain data items may only be permitted to be viewed by certain types of users, or under certain conditions. The emergency system may ensure that data items are provided to authorized users and in permitted use cases.

Disclosed are systems and methods for sending emergency alerts. In some embodiments, sensors and wearable devices may trigger and send the emergency alerts and/or warning signals via available communication devices. Multi-media emergency alerts are also disclosed that include situational awareness information for effective and efficient emergency response.

An alarm system including a plurality of alarm sensors, each having a BLUETOOTH module to establish communication link using a BLUETOOTH protocol to at least one neighbouring sensor in a way such that a BLUETOOTH Mesh Network is formed, and a controller connected to the BLUETOOTH Mesh Network, configured to monitor and manage the status of each alarm sensor and to trigger at least one alarm device based on the status of the alarm sensors, wherein the status data of each alarm sensor is transmitted to the controller, and vice versa, instructions of the controller are transmitted to at least one sensor via the BLUETOOTH Mesh Network.

A system and method for managing an aircraft personal safety device can include an RF signaling device configured to monitor a state or condition of the aircraft personal safety device, and a management device configured to determine the state or condition of the aircraft personal safety device based on communication with the RF signaling device. The method can include associating the RF signaling device with the aircraft personal safety device, and monitoring the state or condition of the aircraft personal safety device by using the management device to receive information from the RF signaling device.

A system for automatically disarming an intrusion detection system protecting a premises and having at least an armed state of operation and a disarmed state of operation, the system for automatically disarming the intrusion detection system including an intrusion detection system state of operation ascertainer operable for receiving an indication of activation of an armed state of operation of the intrusion detection system; and a registered mobile communicator proximity detector communicating with the intrusion detection system state of operation ascertainer and operable, responsive to receiving the indication of activation of the armed state of operation by the intrusion detection system state of operation ascertainer for ascertaining at least a subset of a multiplicity of registered mobile communicators which are located in a vicinity of the premises during an activation time of the armed state of operation and for deactivating the subset of the multiplicity of registered mobile communicators.

Multi-media emergency alerts are also disclosed that include situational awareness information for effective and efficient emergency response.

The present disclosure is directed to a method, non-transitory computer readable medium and apparatus for remotely receiving information from and configuring a battery-backed emergency lighting system. In one embodiment, the method includes establishing a wireless communication session with a web server via a wireless fidelity (WiFi) connection, receiving a request for information related to the battery-backed emergency lighting system and a request to change a configuration of the battery-backed emergency lighting system over the wireless communication session, configuring the battery-backed emergency lighting system in accordance with the request to change the configuration and sending the information that is requested.

A system including a pressure vessel, an actuator, a wireless transmitter, a wireless receiver, and a battery. The actuator is at an outlet of the pressure vessel and is configured to, when activated, release fire-suppression agent held under pressure within the pressure vessel. The wireless transmitter is remote from the actuator and is configured to wirelessly transmit an activation signal. The wireless receiver is coupled to the actuator and is configured to wirelessly receive the activation signal from the wireless transmitter. The battery is coupled to the wireless receiver and is configured to provide electrical power to the wireless receiver.
