Safety ground wire monitoring and alarm systems

A system for monitoring the integrity of a plurality of ground conductors has a plurality of monitors, with a different monitor associated with each ground conductor. Each monitor includes a voltage sensor which monitors voltage on a closed circuit of the monitor. Upon the voltage sensor sensing an unexpected voltage, a transmitter of the monitor issues an “alarm” signal, which may be wireless (e.g., being sent using LoRaWAN protocol). The transmitter may issue other signals, including a periodic “heartbeat” signal to confirm continued operation of the monitor, and a “movement” signal to indicate movement of the monitor. The monitor may be GPS-enabled, in which case each signal may include the GPS coordinates of the monitor. The signals issued by the transmitter may ultimately be analyzed by an operator via a user interface platform, which may simultaneously display information regarding two or more of the plurality of monitors.

Gunshot Detection System with Forensic Data Retention, Live Audio Monitoring, and Two-Way Communication
20220044532 · 2022-02-10 ·

A gunshot detection system includes gunshot sensor units with microphones for detecting gunshots and capturing audio data depicting the detected gunshots and other ambient sounds, an environmental board with various environmental sensors for generating environmental data indicating environmental conditions. The audio data, environmental data, and position information can be stored locally on local nonvolatile storage of the gunshot sensor unit for later retrieval by law enforcement entities. In one embodiment, the gunshot sensor units include a wired and/or wireless data transfer interface for transferring the audio data, environmental data and/or position information to handheld units of law enforcement entities. The gunshot sensor unit can also stream live captured audio data for live monitoring by a control panel, and might also include speakers for providing audio playback of audio data from the control panel.

MONITORING SYSTEM AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM

A monitoring system includes an arithmetic processor. The arithmetic processor receives captured image information representing a captured image obtained by capturing an image of a subject and generates notification information representing a particular notification content depending on a condition of the subject. The arithmetic processor includes a first arithmetic processor and a second arithmetic processor. The first arithmetic processor obtains a condition quantity by quantifying the condition of the subject by reference to the captured image information and based on a parameter about a human activity status. The second arithmetic processor selects, according to the condition quantity, the particular notification content from contents of notification classified into N stages, where N is an integer equal to or greater than three.
