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.

InactiveUS20130331058A1Simple and fast and automatic communicationReduce the possibilityEmergency connection handlingTelephonic communicationTelecommunicationsTriangulation
An emergency alert device is adapted to be worn by a user and to automatically make a cellular phone call to an emergency services center upon activation by a user. The device automatically transmits its current location—derived from GPS, cellular telephone triangulation, or otherwise—via text message, if the emergency services center is equipped to receive text messages, or via a synthesized voice if the emergency services center is not so equipped. The user does not need to dial any phone numbers to activate the call. The device may be attached to, or incorporated into, a wrist watch. A text message is also automatically sent to a recipient who is pre-designated by the user. The text message includes the current location of the user. Repeated text messages are sent if the user's position changes by more than a threshold.
