Abstract
Personal security monitoring apparatus system and method are disclosed, the apparatus including a breath detector and signal processor worn by the user. The signal processor distinguishes between the user's normal breathing patterns and a preselected other breathing pattern intentionally executed by the user when in distress, an alarm output being generated when the other breathing pattern is recognized, The alarm output is transmitted to a local receiver for retransmission over local telephone service to a remote monitoring station. The other breathing pattern may be selected by the user from a plurality of possible other patterns.
