Abstract
An adaptive escape routing system for use in buildings and building complexes in which a plurality of detectors or detector suites are situated throughout the building or building complex and provide information to a central controller as to the release of toxic, injurious, and/or agents, such as nuclear, biological, or chemical agents, in any form (including gaseous, vaporous, or particulate form). The controller, upon detection of an active sensor, commands exit and, optionally, no exit signage to designate safe exit/escape routes.
