Abstract:
A self-assembling network is configured to automatically and dynamically connect devices used in operations carried out on or near roads bearing vehicle and pedestrian traffic. An automatic, ad hoc network connecting existing and new devices can be used to enhance safety by gathering and exchanging safety critical information. In some cases, existing equipment can be augmented with a network controller and radio frequency communications to permit the devices to join a wireless local network and exchange information over the network. New devices, including wearable devices, can be configured to act as nodes on the wireless local network. Establishing the relative position of vehicles, sensors, wearables, and other nodes on the disclosed ad hoc wireless network allows the coordination of functions based on position.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for management of a plurality of devices associated with emergency response and roadside operations connected by a wireless local network, each said device representing a node in said wireless local network and each said node comprising:\n one or more computer processors; one or more computer readable storage media; one or more sensors for collecting information from the ambient environment surrounding each said node; a wireless transceiver; and program instructions stored on the computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the program instructions comprising: program instructions to automatically connect to all other nodes for which a wireless signal is available; program instructions to periodically determine a position of each node; program instructions for each node to transmit information corresponding to its position; program instructions to employ the position of each node to define the position of each node relative to other nodes; and program instructions to coordinate the activity of nodes according to their relative position.
