Abstract

Previously, Emergency Rescue Evacuation Support System (ERESS) has been proposed to reduce the number of victim in panic-type disaster. The ERESS operates under the Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANET) environment and make it possible for ERESS users to exchange their physical activity information with each other. This system consists of new mobile terminals (handset size) with advanced disaster recognition algorithm and acquires sensor information such as acceleration, direction difference and walking steps. However, the former ERESS can judge only the big action like stopping, walking, running, and falling. In this paper, we newly introduce a myoelectric sensor into ERESS and propose new state judging algorithm.

We show the validity of the proposed method by panic-typed experiments.
