Abstract
An emergency detection and notification system containing a short wireless transceiver collects sensor information from onboard sensors and or remote sensors and detects conditions that require attention.
Upon detection of an exception, the emergency detection and notification system issues an audible request, and awaits a confirmation from the user.
If a confirmation is not received, the emergency detection and notification system instructs a remote terminal or a VOIP service to dial a phone number, to issue messages, and to issue vocal signals corresponding to sensor information.
