CHEMICAL ALERT SYSTEM USING A PROTABLE DEVICE WITH INTEGRATED CHEMICAL SENSOR
First Claim
1. A chemical alert system for generating an alarm, the system including a portable electronic device, preferably with telecommunication capabilities to allow for data and/or voice communication via private or public networks, and at least one chemical sensor integrated within the housing of the portable device and controlled by a chemical sensor processing unit, further comprising an alert discriminator receiving input based on measurements of the chemical sensor, performing a test on the input and based on an outcome of the test initiating the transfer of measurements of the chemical sensor to a remote processing facility.
