Embodiments include a system for controlled release of a descent line that can include a shaft secured to a first end of a descent line. Embodiments can include a magnet cradle housing fixedly coupled with the shaft, a first magnet retained by the magnet cradle housing, a coil assembly secured in magnetic proximity to the magnet assembly to generate an electric current by magnetic interaction with the magnet when the shaft is rotated. Embodiments can include a braking assembly powered by the magnet and coil assembly such that the decent of a user is slowed to a safe rate of speed.

Controlled descent safety systems and methods

A personal escape device includes a main housing, a shaft, a magnet housing, and a plurality of magnets. The shaft is rotatably coupled with the main housing and is rotatable about a rotational axis. The magnet housing is positioned in the main housing and is coupled with the shaft such that the magnet housing rotates together with the shaft. The plurality of magnets is coupled with the magnet housing such that the plurality of magnets rotates together with the magnet housing. The stator assembly is coupled with the main housing and surrounds the magnet housing. The stator assembly and the magnet housing are radially spaced from each other to define an air gap therebetween.
