Disclosed is a hazard detector connected to a circuit that has: a plurality of circuit ends and a plurality of detectors, wherein the detector is connected intermediate the plurality of circuit ends, a circuit driver connected to the plurality of circuit ends so that the circuit forms a loop circuit, the circuit driver controlling one or more power sources to selectively provide power to the first circuit end and the second circuit end, and the detector has a short isolator switch that, when opened, breaks electrical continuity downstream of the detector, wherein the detector scans for a short at startup by receiving power, closing the switch, measuring one or more circuit parameters, and determining whether there is a short based on the one or more parameters.

A short-circuit isolator for electrically isolating a short circuit in a fire protection system includes a wireless communication module. The wireless communication module may transmit a status of short-circuit isolator and/or additional data that can be detected by a tool carried by an operator. The wireless communication module may additionally allow the operator to locate the short-circuit isolator, based on an intensity of a wireless signal from the wireless communication module.

A detection system for measuring one or more conditions within an area. At least one fiber optic cable transmits light wherein the at least one fiber optic cable defines a plurality of nodes arranged to measure the one or more conditions. A control system communicates with the at least one fiber optic cable such that scattered light and a time of flight record is transmitted from the at least one fiber optic cable to the control system. The control system includes a detection algorithm operable to identify a portion of the scattered light associated with each of the plurality of nodes. When determining an alert, the control system transmits data associated with a presence and magnitude of the one or more conditions at each of the plurality of nodes to a cloud computing environment and, in return, receives a notification based on the data transmitted.

A gunshot detection system includes a control panel that receives event data from gunshot sensor units detecting gunshots and generates location information pertaining to a shooting event based on the event data. The control panel includes a display on which a graphical user interface (GUI) is rendered. The GUI displays maps of a building with icons overlaid on the maps based on the generated location information. In one example, the GUI displays a map with an icon representing the active shooter, the position of the icon with respect to the floorplan image corresponding to an area of the building. In another example, the GUI displays a map with icons representing different gunshot sensor units, the icons having different visual characteristics to indicate that the gunshot sensor units detected the gunshots and/or which of the gunshot sensor units was determined to be closest to the detected gunshots.

The present invention provides a nursing care recipient watching support system. In the nursing care recipient watching support system, position information with respect to a measuring position, and indoor compartment attribute information such as a living room, a share room, a conversation room, a kitchen, a bathroom and an entrance, as well as watching level information corresponding to the indoor compartment attribute information are stored in storing unit 30. Position information extracting means 40 extracts the position information, the indoor compartment attribute information and the watching level information. Output means 60 outputs the position information, the indoor compartment attribute information and the watching level information, According to this, it is possible to estimate an existent position of a nursing care recipient, and to support a watching operation of the nursing care recipient.

The present invention provides an image processing apparatus (10) that includes: a feature value extraction unit (11) that, by processing an image including a plurality of persons, extracts an external appearance feature value of each of the persons; and a determination unit (12) that, by processing the image, determines another of the persons who satisfies an infection condition between him/her and each of the persons, and registers relevant information relating to the determined another person in association with the external appearance feature value of each of the persons.

An attachment unit of the biological information management system includes a body temperature measurement unit that measures a body temperature of a subject on an underarm portion and a body water measurement unit that measures body water of the subject on the underarm portion, and the body temperature measurement unit and the body water measurement unit of the attachment unit are attached to the underarm portion. The biological information transmission unit sends the body temperature of the subject measured by the body temperature measurement unit and the body water of the subject measured by the body water measurement unit to a determination unit, and the determination unit outputs a determination result of whether or not there is a possibility that the subject develops infection or heatstroke based on information of the body temperature and body water of the subject sent from the biological information transmission unit.

An information processing apparatus, a data generation method, and a program capable of obtaining useful information about a person from video data are provided. An information processing apparatus (1) according to an example embodiment includes a base-information acquisition unit (2) that acquires a plurality of types of pieces of base information based on video data in which at least one person is shown, the pieces of base information being pieces of information used to monitor a person, and a base-information integration unit (3) that generates integrated information by integrating, among the plurality of pieces of base information, those that satisfy a predetermined relation as information of one and the same person.
