Abstract:
Disclosed herein are apparatuses and methods for providing evacuation guidance. An implementation may comprise identifying a person physically present in an environment requiring an evacuation. The implementation further includes detecting, using at least one sensor in the environment, a last known location of the person. The implementation further includes calculating an exit time for evacuating the environment based on the last known location. The implementation further includes monitoring, using at least one sensor located at an egress point of the environment, whether the person has evacuated the environment. The implementation further includes determining whether a current time has passed the exit time. The implementation further includes transmitting an alert to a device of the respective person in response to determining that the current time has passed the exit time and that the person has not evacuated the environment.
