Systems and methods for control systems to facilitate situational awareness of a vehicle
First Claim
1. An automatic alarm system of a vehicle comprising:
- a sensor adapted to detect electromagnetic data;
a computer system adapted to;
receive data from the sensor;
analyze, by a computer processor, the data from the sensor to determine whether a pattern from the electromagnetic data has been detected;
compare, by the computer processor, the pattern of electromagnetic data detected by the sensor with known patterns of electromagnetic data emitted by emergency vehicles that are stored in a library; and
an automatic alarm mechanism that activates in response to the processor determining that the comparison matches a known pattern of electromagnetic data for an emergency vehicle resulting in the computer processor sending a first signal to activate an alarm of the vehicle.

Abstract
An automatic alarm system for a vehicle includes a sensor adapted to detect electromagnetic data, a computer system, and an automatic alarm mechanism. The computer system receives data from the sensor. A computer processor analyzes the data from the sensor to determine whether a pattern from the electromagnetic data has been detected and compares the pattern of electromagnetic data detected by the sensor with known patterns of electromagnetic data emitted by emergency vehicles that are stored in a library. The automatic alarm mechanism activates in response to the processor determining that the comparison matches a known pattern of electromagnetic data for an emergency vehicle resulting in the computer processor sending a first signal to activate an alarm of the vehicle.

11. A method implemented by an automatic alarm system of a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
detecting electromagnetic data using a sensor; receiving, by a computer system, data from the sensor; analyzing, by a computer processor, the data from the sensor to determine whether a pattern from the electromagnetic data has been detected; comparing, by the computer processor, the pattern of electromagnetic data detected by the sensor with known patterns of electromagnetic data emitted by emergency vehicles that are stored in a library; and activating an automatic alarm mechanism in response to the computer processor determining that the comparison matches a known pattern of electromagnetic data for an emergency vehicle, at least in part by the computer processor sending a first signal to activate an alarm of the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
