Abstract

There is disclosed herein an Internet server apparatus, method and device for implementing emergency information instructions. The instructions comprise a program of a plurality of steps and can be in the form of a virtual implementation through use of a web page that includes representations of a virtual emergency information apparatus or, alternatively, in the form of a physical portable device. Indicators are provided in the form of lights or a numerical display to indicate the completion of sequential steps in the program so as to aid the user in knowing how many steps will be necessary and to indicate the completion of each step.

Claims

1. A compact portable information apparatus comprising a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein depression of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

a plurality of step indicators to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the instructional program and steps thereof.

2. The apparatus as in claim 1 wherein the plurality of step indicators comprise auditory indicators.

3. The apparatus as in claim 1 wherein the plurality of step indicators comprise visual indicators.

4. The apparatus as in claim 3 wherein the step indicators comprise numbers provided on a display.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the apparatus further includes acknowledgment keys to allow the user to respond to the instructional program.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the apparatus comprises voice recognition software configured to respond to the voice of the user.

7. A virtual information apparatus comprising a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

a plurality of step indicators for each program to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the respective instructional program and steps thereof.

8. The apparatus as in claim 7 wherein the plurality of the step indictors comprise visual indicators.

9. The apparatus in claim 7 wherein the step indicators comprise a display of sequential numbers indicating each respective step.

10. The apparatus of claim 7 wherein the plurality of step indicators comprise audio indicators.

11. An apparatus comprising a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

a plurality of step indicators for each program to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the respective instructional program and steps thereof.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the step indicators comprise visual indicators.

13. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the step indicators comprise a display of sequential numbers indicating each respective step.

14. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the step indicators comprise auditory indicators.

15. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the apparatus further includes acknowledgment keys to allow the user to respond to the instructional program.

16. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the apparatus comprises voice recognition software configured to respond to the voice of the user.

17. A virtual information method using a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

generating a plurality of step indicators for each program to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the respective instructional program and steps thereof.

18. The method of claim 17 wherein the step indicators comprise auditory indicators.

19. The method of claim 17 wherein the step indicators comprise visual indicators.

20. The method of claim 17 wherein the steps indicators comprise a display of sequential numbers indicating each respective step.

21. An information method using a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and generating a plurality of step indicators for each program to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the respective instructional program and steps thereof.

22. The method of claim 21 wherein the step indicators comprise visual indicators.

23. The method of claim 21 wherein the step indicators comprise a display of sequential numbers indicating each respective step.

24. The method of claim 21 wherein the step indicators comprise auditory indicators.

25. The method of claim 21 further comprising receiving acknowledgment from the user in response to the instructional program.

26. A virtual information apparatus comprising a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

a plurality of step indicators to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the instructional program and steps thereof, the step indicators comprising a display of a plurality of numbers which change as each step in the program is completed, and wherein the step indictors comprise a display of sequential numbers indicating each respective step.

27. Apparatus comprising a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

a plurality of step indicators to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the instructional program and steps thereof, the step indicators comprising auditory indicators.

28. The apparatus of claim 27 wherein the apparatus comprises voice recognition software configured to respond to the voice of the user.

29. Apparatus comprising a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

a plurality of step indicators to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the instructional program and steps thereof wherein the step indicators comprise a display of sequential numbers indicating each respective step.

30. A virtual information method using a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein use of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and generating a plurality of step indicators to assist the program user in determining progress of completion of the instructional program and steps thereof.

31. The method of claim 30 wherein the step indicators comprise auditory indicators.

32. The method of claim 30 wherein the step indicators comprise visual indicators.

33. A compact portable information apparatus comprising a plurality of program keys, each key being associated with an instructional program, such as an emergency scenario, and wherein depression of a key initiates a series of steps of the program, and

wherein the apparatus comprises voice recognition software configured to respond to the voice of a user.
