摘要
A DTI funded project Secure Adhoc Fire &Emergency safety NETwork (SafetyNET) is a wireless sensor network for fire protection and emergency responses. The SafetyNET has been addressing the needs by developing robust low power node technology capable of operating in extreme high temperature, communicating over a wide range and capable of supporting occupancy, heat, smoke or integrity sensors. SafetyNET provides an information infrastructure to enable buildings, firefighters, firetenders and their control center to efficiently communicate during natural or manmade disasters by using sensor networks, wireless communications and 3G technologies. The two main beneficiaries of the SafetyNET system which includes firefighters and building occupants. The majority of non-residential fire injuries occur in high-occupancy buildings such as retirement homes.
