Active intruder mitigation system and method
First Claim
1. A life safety system for mitigating injuries and fatalities to occupants of a multi-zone structure comprising:
- a. a plurality of controllers;
b. a plurality of digital image capture devices;
c. a plurality of locking mechanisms each coupled to at least one zonal egress point and at least a subset of said plurality of locking mechanisms connected to at least one of said controllers;
d. a plurality of dispersion points for the dispersion of at least one dispersible substance, and at least a subset of said plurality of dispersion points connected to at least one of said controllers;
e. a plurality of thermostatic members at least a subset of said plurality of thermostatic members connected to at least one of said controllers;
f. at least one monitoring location physically removed from at least one of said digital image capture devices and from at least one of said controllers and from at least one of said dispersion points and from at least one of said locking mechanisms and from at least one of said thermostatic members.

Abstract
A life safety system for mitigating injuries and fatalities to occupants of a multi-zone structure comprising a plurality of controllers, and coupled to said controller, a plurality of digital imaging devices, a plurality of locking mechanisms, a plurality of dispersion points for the dispersion of at least one dispersible substance, and a plurality of thermostatic members. The life safety system further comprises at least one monitoring location physically removed from at least one of said controllers and from at least one of said dispersion points and from at least one of said locking mechanisms and from at least one of said thermostatic members.

10. A method for mitigating injuries and fatalities to occupants of a structure comprising:
-
a. Identifying a plurality of zones within a building structure; b. Installing within at least two of said plurality of zones a controller; c. Installing within said at least two of said plurality of zones at least one digital imaging device, a locking mechanism coupled to at least one covering of a point of egress from the zone, a dispersion point for the dispersion of at least one dispersible substance and a thermostatic member; d. Communicatively connecting the installed components within each zone to the controller of that zone; e. Communicatively connecting each of said controllers to a main controller; f. Identifying a threatening actor within one of said zones; g. Configuring, through the use of at least one of said controllers, at least one of said locking mechanisms coupled to at least one covering of a point of egress from the zone, and said dispersion point for the dispersion of at least one dispersible substance, an available path of egress from the zone of the identified actor. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
