System for providing real time locating and gas exposure monitoring
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for providing real time locating and gas exposure monitoring, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a hazard detection system, a first gas exposure identifier and a first location identifier from a first device;
identifying a work zone of the first device based on the first location identifier;
identifying a concentration of gas detected by the first device in the work zone based on the first gas exposure identifier;
receiving, by the hazard detection system, a second location identifier from a second device;
identifying the second device as being in the work zone based on the second location identifier; and
transmitting alert information to the second device in response to the second device being in the work zone and the concentration of gas detected by the first device at the work zone being above a set amount.

Abstract
A system, method, and apparatus for gas exposure monitoring of a work area are described. The system may include a processor; an interface to communicate with a first device and a second device; and a memory to store first and second gas exposure identifiers and first and second location identifiers received from the first and second devices, respectively. The system may identify a concentration of gas detected by the first device in a work zone. The system may be operable to transmit alert information to the second device when the second device is in the work zone and the concentration of gas detected by the first device in the work zone is above the set amount.

10. A computer-implemented method for providing real time locating and gas alert monitoring, the method comprising:
-
determining a first location of a first device, wherein the first device comprises a location determining device and a gas detector in communication with each other; transmitting to a remote server, by the first device, a location identifier that identifies the first location; receiving, at the first device, alert information from the remote server when the first location of the first device is determined to be in a zone in a work area from which a second device has transmitted an alarm in response to detecting a concentration of gas in the zone being above a set amount; and providing, by the first device, an alert on the first device when the alert information is received from the remote server. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system for providing real time locating and gas exposure monitoring, the system comprising:
-
an interface configured to communicate with a first device and a second device; a memory configured to store a first gas exposure identifier and a first location identifier received from the first device via the interface, and a second location identifier received from the second device via the interface; and a processor operatively connected to the memory and the interface, the processor configured to; receive, via the interface, the first gas exposure identifier, the first location identifier, and the second location identifier, identify the first device being in a work zone based on the first location identifier, identify a concentration of gas detected by the first device in the work zone based on the first gas exposure identifier, determine whether the concentration of gas detected by the first device in the work zone is above a set amount, identify whether the second device is located in the work zone based on the second location identifier, and transmit alert information to the second device when the second device is in the work zone and the concentration of gas detected by the first device in the work zone is above the set amount. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
