The invention discloses a routing method for the wireless sensor network with efficient energy, which is suitable for the layered sensor network structure. The routing method is composed of initialization, cluster building, adjacent clusters routing and routing maintenance, wherein, an initialization process of the protocol makes a Sink node obtain a topology and network average energy of the sensor network, and each node obtains hop counts from the node to the Sink node; in the stage of the cluster building, a repeated division method is used to divide sensor network clusters, the divided clusters are even, and a leader cluster node is undertaken by nodes with higher residual energy; the adjacent clusters routing uses an ant colony algorithm to determine the probability of using a link to send information according to the link pheromone concentration, and the link pheromone concentration is increased with the information transmission on the link and is reduced with the time going; and the routing maintenance stage is responsible for updating link pheromone concentration, and makes the nodes inside the cluster with higher residual energy undertake the leader cluster in turn. The routing method can reduce the consumption of the network total energy, can balance the consumption of the node energy and can prolong the network life cycle.

A net is made from an explosive resistant material such as KEVLAR and is thrown over an explosive-laden device such that the net helps contain the blast force of the explosive-laden device. The net also has a nozzle that is fluid connected to a fire suppressant agent as well as a high density foam, each of which are discharged through the nozzle once the net is thrown over the explosive-laden device, the fire suppressant agent and the high density foam each helping to minimize the blast force of the explosive-laden device. The net can be thrown manually or can be fired from a gun that uses either pneumatic force or a firing cartridge to propel the net at its target.

The Alarm Triggered Shut off Appliance System (ATSAS) relates to a safe control shut-off system for all utility appliances. It reduces the risks of fire and carbon monoxide poisoning before they occur by turning off utility appliances when the smoke detection/carbon monoxide alarms sound. As the alarms sound, the ATSAS automatically shuts off the appliance. This helps the occupants to take emergency action in the earliest stages of development of a fire/carbon monoxide breakout or prevents their occurrences when the occupant's direct action is impossible. The system has a tone decoder that is responsive only to the frequency range of the alarm's alert sound. The tone decoder prevents the system from being falsely activated by erroneous sounds. Once a smoke or gas leak occurs, the system detects the alert sound through its microphone, and energizes a relay or solenoid valve that turns off the supply line to the utility appliance.
