SIGNAL PROCESSING DEVICE FOR EMERGENCY MONITORING
A signal processing device can determine a wireless sensor signature of an individual within a sensory environment of the signal processing device, the wireless sensor signature corresponding to reflected wireless signals from the individual. Based on reflected wireless signals from the individual, the signal processing device can detect an emergency event at an emergency location within the sensory environment. In response to detecting the emergency event, the signal processing device can transmit, over a wireless network, a deploy command to a drone that includes a camera, the deploy command indicating the emergency location and including an imaging command to capture live images of the emergency event.
1 . A signal processing device comprising:
one or more processors; and
a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the signal processing device to:
determine a wireless sensor signature of an individual within a sensory environment of the signal processing device, the wireless sensor signature corresponding to reflected wireless signals from the individual;
based on reflected wireless signals from the individual, detect an emergency event at an emergency location within the sensory environment; and
in response to detecting the emergency event, transmit, over a wireless network, a deploy command to a drone that includes a camera, the deploy command indicating the emergency location and including an imaging command to capture live images of the emergency event.
2 . The signal processing device of claim 1 , wherein the executed instructions further cause the signal processing device to:
initiate wireless communications with a third-party entity to provide the third-party entity with an indication of the emergency event.
3 . The signal processing device of claim 2 , wherein the third-party entity comprises one of an emergency contact of the individual or an emergency service.
4 . The signal processing device of claim 2 , wherein the imaging command includes an instruction to the drone to record the live images of the emergency event.
5 . The signal processing device of claim 4 , wherein the executed instructions further cause the signal processing device to:
receive a recording of the live images of the emergency event from the indoor drone over the wireless network; and
transmit the recording of the live images to the third-party entity via the wireless communications.
6 . The signal processing device of claim 1 , wherein the imaging command further causes the drone to transmit a live feed of the live images to the signal processing device over the wireless network.
7 . The signal processing device of claim 6 , wherein the executed instructions further cause the signal processing device to:
initiate wireless communications with a third-party entity to provide an indication of the emergency event, the third-party entity comprising one of an emergency contact of the individual or an emergency service; and
transmit, via the wireless communications, the live feed to the third-party entity to provide the third-party entity with the live images of the emergency event.
8 . The signal processing device of claim 1 , wherein the reflected wireless signals originate from one or more wireless signal sources external to the signal processing device.
9 . The signal processing device of claim 8 , wherein the one or more wireless signal sources external to the signal processing device comprise one or more smartphones, smart home devices, or a wireless router.
10 . The signal processing device of claim 8 , wherein the reflected signals comprise Wi-Fi signals.
11 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a signal processing device, cause the signal processing device to:
determine a wireless sensor signature of an individual within a sensory environment of the signal processing device, the wireless sensor signature corresponding to reflected wireless signals from the individual;
based on reflected wireless signals from the individual, detect an emergency event at an emergency location within the sensory environment; and
in response to detecting the emergency event, transmit, over a wireless network, a deploy command to a drone that includes a camera, the deploy command indicating the emergency location and including an imaging command to capture live images of the emergency event.
12 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the executed instructions further cause the signal processing device to:
initiate wireless communications with a third-party entity to provide the third-party entity with an indication of the emergency event.
13 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the third-party entity comprises one of an emergency contact of the individual or an emergency service.
14 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the imaging command includes an instruction to the drone to record the live images of the emergency event.
15 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the executed instructions further cause the signal processing device to:
receive a recording of the live images of the emergency event from the indoor drone over the wireless network; and
transmit the recording of the live images to the third-party entity via the wireless communications.
16 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the imaging command further causes the drone to transmit a live feed of the live images to the signal processing device over the wireless network.
17 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the executed instructions further cause the signal processing device to:
initiate wireless communications with a third-party entity to provide an indication of the emergency event, the third-party entity comprising one of an emergency contact of the individual or an emergency service; and
transmit, via the wireless communications, the live feed to the third-party entity to provide the third-party entity with the live images of the emergency event.
18 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the reflected wireless signals originate from one or more wireless signal sources external to the signal processing device.
19 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 18 , wherein the one or more wireless signal sources external to the signal processing device comprise one or more smartphones, smart home devices, or a wireless router.
20 . A computer-implemented method of detecting emergency events, the method being performed by one or more processors of a signal processing device and comprising:
determining a wireless sensor signature of an individual within a sensory environment of the signal processing device, the wireless sensor signature corresponding to reflected wireless signals from the individual;
based on reflected wireless signals from the individual, detecting an emergency event at an emergency location within the sensory environment; and
in response to detecting the emergency event, transmitting, over a wireless network, a deploy command to a drone that includes a camera, the deploy command indicating the emergency location and including an imaging command to capture live images of the emergency event.
