Patent Images
1. A method for responding to potential security events comprising:
- specifying alarm events and configuring a set of alarm actions to be performed in response to detecting the alarm events;
a mobile application, executing on a mobile computing device, detecting the alarm events via one or more wireless body sensors;
the mobile application recording event data and forwarding the event data to a monitoring center in response to detecting the alarm events; and
the monitoring center executing the alarm actions and storing the received event data.

Abstract
During a potential security event, a mobile application enters an alarm state and records audio, video and location event data and forwards the event data to a monitoring center, which stores the event data and takes appropriate action such as notifying local law enforcement. The alarm state is triggered manually, by the use of wireless sensors, or by arming the mobile application and then determining if it has been disarmed within a predetermined period of time.
