Mobile and automated emergency service provider contact system
First Claim
1. An emergency service provider contact system, comprising:
- a processor;
a storage coupled to the processor;
at least one sensor coupled to the processor; and
a non-transitory, computer-readable medium coupled to the processor, wherein the non-transitory, computer-readable medium includes instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to;
detect an alert event through the at least one sensor, wherein the alert event includes a first reading from the at least one sensor that exceeds a first threshold reading;
retrieve at least one secondary event detected by the at least one sensor in response to detecting the alert event that includes the first reading that exceeds the first threshold reading, wherein the at least one secondary event is contemporaneous with the alert event and includes a second reading from the at least one sensor that exceeds a second threshold reading;
determine that the at least one secondary event corroborates the alert event without input from a user;
determine that at least one emergency service provider is associated with the alert event in the storage, wherein the at least one emergency service provider includes contact information; and
contact the emergency service provider using the contact information.

Abstract
An emergency service provider contact system includes a portable chassis. A processor is housed in the portable chassis. A storage, a communications module, at least one sensor, and a display are coupled to the processor and housed in the portable chassis. A non-transitory, computer-readable medium is housed in the portable chassis, coupled to the processor, and includes instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to monitor the at least one sensor and, in response to detecting an alert event through the at least one sensor, search the storage using the alert event to retrieve contact information for at least one emergency service provider that is associated with the alert event, and contact the emergency service provider through the communications module using the contact information.

17. A method for contacting an emergency service provider, comprising:
-
monitoring at least one sensor; detecting an alert event through the at least one sensor that includes a first reading from the at least one sensor that exceeds a first threshold reading; retrieving at least one secondary event detected by the at least one sensor in response to detecting the alert event that includes the first reading that exceeds the first threshold reading, wherein the at least one secondary event is contemporaneous with the alert event and includes a second reading from the at least one sensor that exceeds a second threshold reading; determining that the at least one secondary event corroborates the alert event without input from a user; determining that at least one emergency service provider is associated with the alert event in a storage, wherein the at least one emergency service provider includes contact information; and contacting the emergency service provider using the contact information. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
