woowRescue is an app for mobile devices which is designed to be an Integrated Emergency System, in areas ranging from healthcare to police matters.
What type of emergency does it detect?
The system can automatically detect accidents involving movement, in cars, motorbikes, buses, etc. This means it can also detect sports accidents. The system can launch the mechanisms needed for effectively monitoring the situation, as well as facilitating healthcare attention, speeding up the response times of the different Emergency Services.
It can also detect when people go missing or get lost, providing valid, sensitive information to police services, maximising the possibility of finding the lost person, or in a worst-case scenario, reconstructing the events leading to their disappearance.
How does it work?
The app is installed on any Smartphone (currently Android only), and does not need to be configured by the user to work. It can be active 24 hours a day, constantly monitoring for any possible emergency situations. Everything is designed to work independently and automatically without the active participation of the user.
How are the alerts produced?
The app can send alerts via text message, phone call and notifications in the style of messaging programmes.
It includes a very innovative element which allows notifications to be sent to nearby devices whose users have medical expertise, even if they are not known to the app user.
This makes it possible for nearby healthcare personnel to be able to attend the accident victim immediately. If Public Administration decides to take part, it can even send emergency alerts to the nearest ambulance, hospital, or other relevant service.
In the case of disappearances, it sends nearby devices, even if not known to the user, the last known location of the lost person, along with their photograph. This creates a new search method which does not currently exist, where society as a whole takes an active role in the search.
