Patent ID: 8909415

Claim:
A portable multi-modal emergency situation anomaly detection and response system comprising: a) a portable subscriber device in a motor vehicle having a multi-mode signature sensor and processing suite receiving data from said sensor responsive to a component of said motor vehicle to automatically detect anomalies and emergency situations within said motor vehicle; b) said device having a motor vehicle external sensor in communication with said multi-mode signature sensor and processing suite receiving environmental data external to the motor vehicle for receiving and analyzing abnormalities external to said motor vehicle; c) a communications infrastructure in said device providing two way communication between a subscribing vehicle user in said motor vehicle and a global information grid, said communications infrastructure for publishing sensor information from the vehicle's internal and external sensors to said remote global information grid, said remote information grid collecting, analyzing, modeling natural and human behavior, and configured to alert the subscriber device and user in said motor vehicle identifying and reporting non-obvious relationships and events that are precursors to a significant event of interest, and countermeasures to be taken to prevent or moderate said previously defined behavior; d) a global positioning system in said device for determining the real time location of the sensor enabled vehicle; and e) said portable device being movable by said subscriber user from one motor vehicle to another motor vehicle, said device containing all of said sensors and said communication infrastructure.
