The Emergency Alert System (EAS) is a national warning system in the United States put into place on January 1, 1997 (approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in November 1994), when it replaced the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS), which in turn replaced CONELRAD.
Robust alarm system
ActiveUS7962188B2Improve alarm reliabilityDiagnostic recording/measuringOptical sensorsFault indicatorControl theory
A robust alarm system has an alarm controller adapted to input an alarm trigger and to generate at least one alarm drive signal in response. Alarm subsystems input the alarm drive signal and activate one or more of multiple alarms accordingly. A subsystem function signal provides feedback to the alarm controller as to alarm subsystem integrity. A malfunction indicator is output from the alarm controller in response to a failure within the alarm subsystems.

Alert system for vehicle
An alert system for a vehicle includes a video display, an interior visual alert device disposed at an interior rearview mirror assembly, a driver side visual alert device disposed at a driver side exterior rearview mirror assembly and a passenger side visual alert device disposed at a passenger side exterior rearview mirror assembly. A control is operable to activate at least one of the alert devices in response to a detection of an object rearward of the vehicle. The alert devices are viewable by the driver of the vehicle when activated and are operable to guide or prompt the driver to check the images captured by a rearward facing camera and displayed in the vehicle cabin by the video display so that the driver can verify the nature and type of a potential hazard rearward of the vehicle.

Alarm system that processes both motion and vital signs using specific heuristic rules and thresholds
ActiveUS20100298656A1Improve securityMinimize corruptionPerson identificationInertial sensorsVital signsIntensive care medicine
The invention provides a body-worn monitor that measures a patient's vital signs (e.g. blood pressure, SpO2, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature) while simultaneously characterizing their activity state (e.g. resting, walking, convulsing, falling). The body-worn monitor processes this information to minimize corruption of the vital signs by motion-related artifacts. A software framework generates alarms / alerts based on threshold values that are either preset or determined in real time. The framework additionally includes a series of ‘heuristic’ rules that take the patient's activity state and motion into account, and process the vital signs accordingly. These rules, for example, indicate that a walking patient is likely breathing and has a regular heart rate, even if their motion-corrupted vital signs suggest otherwise.

Apparatus, system, and method for alarm systems
InactiveUS20060176167A1Packet lossMinimizing inputFrequency-division multiplex detailsTelephonic communicationComputer hardwareAlarm device
An alarm system (100), including ease of programming of a family or group of interoperating alarm devices (102) via a learn mode that detects new devices and provides reliable accounting of the group via state dumps to an external system (104). Reliable communications with the external system (104) are provided via a set of protocols. Disabling of the alarm system is prevented, by transmitting a pre-alarm signal prior to expiration of an entry delay, and by verifying communications with an external device, prior to an alarm-triggering event. Multi-priority message code assignment, including error tolerance, employs n-bit codes with maximized error tolerance. Message transmissions include multiple levels of error protection. The group of monitored alarm devices (102) can be easily set up, purchased and activated by a consumer, and do not become permanent fixtures.

Civil defense alert system and method using power line communication
InactiveUS20020024424A1Special service provision for substationFrequency-division multiplex detailsModem deviceNetworked system
This invention pertains to the use of power line communication in a civil defense alerting system. The idea encapsulates the use of existing technology both in power line communication via a power line modem and network data transfer and applies it to an area to which it has never before been applied. Substantial improvement to both is developed through this invention as the prior art had never included or addressed the need for and ability to communicate over the power lines when no electrical power was flowing from the utility. The invention demonstrates that through a communications network it is possible for a system user to activate a single warning alerter device or a multitude of warning alerter devices that are connected to a standard power distribution network. Overall, this invention provides governmental users a more comprehensive and more fail-safe method and process f warning the public of risks, potentially hazardous situations, and safety instructions to minimize the loss of life and injury.

Video surveillance, storage, and alerting system having network management, hierarchical data storage, video tip processing, and vehicle plate analysis
ActiveUS7382244B1Television system detailsFrequency-division multiplex detailsVideo monitoringDriver/operator
The present invention is a video surveillance, storage, and alerting system having surveillance cameras, video analytics devices, audio sensory devices, other sensory devices, and a plurality of data storage devices. A network management module monitors network status of all subsystems including cameras, servers, storage devices, etc. and shows actively monitored areas on a physical map. A vehicle information module retrieves information from a law enforcement database about vehicles detected in the video data based on the vehicle's license plate, including information about stolen vehicles, as well as warrant, wanted person, and mug shot information for registered drivers of the vehicles. Video tips are received and processed from anonymous and non-anonymous sources. A correlation engine correlates primitive events and compound events from each of the subsystems, weighted by attributes of the events, across both space and time, and an alerting engine generates alerts and performs actions based on the correlation. A hierarchical storage manager manages storage of the vast amounts of data, including video data, based on importance of the data calculated from attributes of the data. A privacy filter ensures no private data is detected, correlated, or stored.

Online bidding system
An online auction system comprising a preliminary bidding portion and a virtual auction portion is disclosed herein. The preliminary bidding portion allows bidders to access auction items and input bids during a preestablished extended period of time. After the preliminary bidding portion concludes, the virtual auction portion provides bidders the opportunity to input bids on each item consecutively and individually from the preliminary auction portion in a manner similar to a conventional live auction. During the virtual auction portion, bidders are provided with a countdown to encourage further bidding before the previous bid becomes final. After each new bid is inputted, the countdown is reinitiated. The countdown is reinitiated until no new bids are input.

Alert system and personal apparatus
An alert system and apparatus for an emergency alert system is provided to disseminate emergency information to the public utilizing a universal paging system through a personal alert device such as a cellular telephone, pager, PDA or E-FOB. The alert system utilizes an emergency alert system signal from the NOAA alert system to broadcast the alert message to cellular devices in a specified alert area. The broadcast message provides information related to the alert level. The E-FOB may be a passive device which is activated by a NOAA alert signal and then listens for a cellular message. If the E-FOB is within the alert area, the E-FOB provides information to the user. If the E-FOB is not within the alert area, the E-FOB returns to a passive state.
