First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for detecting and reporting events in an emergency assistance system, comprising:
- a general purpose processor configured to detect and report events to a remotely located emergency assistance system using at least a main radio to transmit information regarding the events; and
a hardened processor configured to detect and report at least a subset of the events, wherein the hardened processor is used to report at least one event based at least in part on a determination that the general purpose processor is unable to report the at least one event.
