Owner controlled evacuation system
First Claim
1. An evacuation system comprising:
- a plurality of sensory nodes installed within a first structure and a second structure, wherein a first subset of the plurality of sensory nodes in the first structure are configured to detect a first evacuation condition and a second subset of the plurality of sensory nodes in the second structure are configured to detect a second evacuation condition; and
a user device configured to receive an indication of the first evacuation condition and the second evacuation condition from the plurality of sensory nodes, and in response;
determine that a location of the user device is within a predetermined distance from the first structure associated with the first evacuation condition and not within the predetermined distance from the second structure associated with the second evacuation condition;
alert a user of the user device of the first evacuation condition and not of the second evacuation condition responsive to determining that the location of the user device is within the predetermined distance from the first structure and not within the predetermined distance from the second structure;
determine an evacuation route for exiting the first structure;
monitor the evacuation route and location of the user device to determine that an update condition is satisfied in response to detecting that the user device is moving toward a location of the first structure that is unsafe based on ambient sound sensed by the user device;
update the evacuation route based upon the update condition being satisfied wherein the updated evacuation route directs the user of the user device away from the unsafe location.

Abstract
A method includes receiving, by a user device, information regarding a sensed condition in a structure. The sensed condition is sensed by a sensory node. The method also includes providing, by the user device, a notification identifying the sensed condition to a user of the user device, and receiving, by the user device, information regarding navigable pathways of the structure. The method further includes determining, by the user device, a location of the user device, and identifying, by the user device, a first evacuation route based at least in part on the information regarding the sensed condition, the information regarding navigable pathways of the structure, and the location of the user device. The method also includes displaying, by the user device, the first evacuation route.

8. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a user device associated with an evacuation system, an indication of a first evacuation condition in a first structure and of a second evacuation condition in a second structure; determining that a location of the user device is within a predetermined distance from the first structure associated with the first evacuation condition and not within the predetermined distance from the second structure associated with the second evacuation condition; alerting a user of the user device of the first evacuation condition and not of the second evacuation condition responsive to determining that the location of the user device is within the predetermined distance from the first structure and not within the predetermined distance from the second structure; determining, by the user device an evacuation route for exiting the first structure; monitoring, by the user device, the evacuation route and location of the user device for determining that an update condition is satisfied in response to detecting that the user device is moving toward a location of the first structure that is unsafe based on ambient sound sensed by the user device; updating, by the user device, the evacuation route based upon the update condition being satisfied wherein the updated evacuation route directs the user of the user device away from the unsafe location. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
