  • In this paper, we present Emergency exit signs are installed to provide escape routes or ways in buildings like shopping malls, hospitals, industry, and government complex, etc. and various other places for safety purpose to aid people to escape easily during emergency situations. In case of an emergency situation like smoke, fire, bad lightings and crowded stamped condition at emergency situations, it's difficult for people to recognize the emergency exit signs and emergency doors to exit from the emergency building areas. This paper propose an automatic emergency exit sing recognition to find exit direction using a smart device. The proposed approach aims to develop an computer vision based smart phone application to detect emergency exit signs using the smart device camera and guide the direction to escape in the visible and audible output format. In this research, a CAMShift object tracking approach is used to detect the emergency exit sign and the direction information extracted using template matching method. The direction information of the exit sign is stored in a text format and then using text-to-speech the text synthesized to audible acoustic signal. The synthesized acoustic signal render on smart device speaker as an escape guide information to the user. This research result is analyzed and concluded from the views of visual elements selecting, EXIT appearance design and EXIT's placement in the building, which is very valuable and can be commonly referred in wayfinder system.

  • The patient characters in medical emergency facilities is in emergent situation and very wide medical area. So, the spatial composition of this facilities should be more efficient than general medical ones. For this reason, patient who visit medical emergency center should be triaged by each property of patient. And then the clinical space is to be composed in response to flow of each patient group that triaged. Therefore this study aims to find method of the spatial composition and architectural details of medical emergency center.

  • This paper aims to propose an emergency recognition system using multimodal information extracted by an image processing module, a voice processing module, and a gravity sensor processing module. Each processing module detects predefined events such as moving, stopping, fainting, and transfer them to the multimodal integration module. Multimodal integration module recognizes emergency situation by using the transferred events and rechecks it by asking the user some question and recognizing the answer. The experiment was conducted for a faint motion in the living room and bathroom. The results of the experiment show that the proposed system is robust than previous methods and effectively recognizes emergency situations at various situations.
