Dynamic emergency aid
First Claim
1. A method for dynamic output of information, for evacuation of persons from a building, onto a portable device, the method comprising:
- determining current position data of the portable device using a position determination system;
determining current usability of escape routes located in the building using a first sensor system;
determining evacuation information using a hardware control unit, based on the current usability of the escape routes and the current position of the portable device;
reading in an identifier located on the building by a read facility of the portable device; and
outputting the evacuation information on the portable device as graphical routing information on a building plan loaded onto the portable device by the reading.

Abstract
Dynamic output of information for the evacuation of persons, in particular from buildings, is provided to a portable device based on current position data of the device as determined by a position determination system. The current usability of escape routes located in the building is determined by a sensor system. Evacuation information is determined by a control unit, based on the current usability of the escape routes and the current position of the device and output on the portable device. In emergency situations, dedicated evacuation information can thus be determined for a person as a function of the whereabouts of the person and the respective hazardous situation and output on the mobile device (e.g. smartphone, PDA) of the person. This enables, inter alia, a rapid and efficient evacuation of the building or a site.

16. An apparatus for dynamic output of information, for evacuation of persons from a building, onto a portable device of a respective person, comprising:
-
a first sensor system determining current usability of escape routes located in the building; a position determination system determining positions of persons located in the building; a hardware control unit, coupled to said first sensor system and said position determination system, performing real-time processing of data provided by the first sensor system and the position determination system; sending to the mobile device, which has a read apparatus for reading in an identifier located on the building, a building plan of the building; and providing graphic evacuation information to the portable device of a person as routing information on the building plan based on the current usability of the escape routes and a current position of the person. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
