A dual-mode beacon profile for normal and disaster environments

초록

In these days, the beacon has been widely used in all aspects of life. It can be used in marketing and loyalty, based on the location of advertisements or messages. But it has not been applied to the disaster environment. Recently, the disasters such as fire disaster and earthquake occur frequently around the world. They cause great threats to life and property. However, Modern architectures have high-rise and complex features that bring danger and greater challenges to the search and rescue work for firefighters. This paper proposes the design and implementation for a portable, power saving dual-mode beacon profile. The dual-mode beacon not only has the function of sending an advertisement, but also can sense the fire and earthquake to send out alarms. This system supports both the original beacon system and the disaster system. The beacon system gives you advanced information using Indoor Positioning System, while the disaster system helps you to exit and service escape route.
