Evacuation system
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a protective housing comprising;
a water-resistant layer comprising a material that is impervious to water, wherein the water-resistant layer defines an inside space of the protective housing;
a fire-resistant layer that surrounds the water-resistant layer;
an outside layer that surrounds the fire-resistant layer; and
an access passage that penetrates the water-resistant layer, the fire-resistant layer, and the outside layer, wherein the access passage comprises an interior access hole and an exterior access hole that penetrates the outside layer, and wherein the interior hole is offset from the exterior hole; and
a recording device within the inside space comprising;
a transceiver configured to receive sensed data from one or more sensory nodes and from a commercial panel of a building;
a memory configured to store the data received by the transceiver; and
a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory, wherein the processor is configured to publish the sensed data such that the sensed data is accessible to a first responder.

Abstract
An illustrative apparatus includes a protective housing and a recording device. The protective housing can include a water-resistant layer comprising a material that is impervious to water. The water-resistant layer can define an inside space of the protective housing. The protective housing can also include a fire-resistant layer that surrounds the water-resistant layer and an outside layer that surrounds the fire-resistant layer. The recording device within the inside space can include a transceiver configured to receive sensed data from one or more sensory nodes and from a commercial panel of a building, a memory configured to store the data received by the transceiver, and a processor operatively coupled to the transceiver and the memory. The processor can be configured to publish the sensed data such that the sensed data is accessible to a first responder.

13. A method comprising:
-
providing a water-resistant layer of a protective housing, wherein the water-resistant layer comprises a material that is impervious to water and defines an inside space of the protective housing; surrounding the water-resistant layer with a fire-resistant layer of the protective housing; surrounding the fire-resistant layer with an outside layer; forming an access passage that penetrates the water-resistant layer, the fire-resistant layer, and the outside layer, wherein the access passage comprises an interior access hole that penetrates the water-resistant layer and an exterior access hole that penetrates the outside layer, and wherein the interior hole is offset from the exterior hole; and providing a recording device within the inside space, wherein the recording device comprises a transceiver, a memory, and a processor, wherein the transceiver is configured to sense data from one or more sensory nodes and from a commercial panel of a building, wherein the memory is configured to store the sensed data, and wherein the processor is configured to publish the sensed data such that the sensed data is accessible to a first responder. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
