Abstract
A video-enabled rapid response system and method that integrates identification technology and tracking technology in order to rapidly alert the most appropriate person to an incident. Such an approach includes a strong identification mechanism to get a positive identification on a person and a weak identification mechanism to maintain location information for the person moving in a facility. The system can rapidly determine the closest person with skills and or authority to respond when an incident occurs at a particular location and then pass an alert to them via a paging mechanism. The system combines strong and weak identification mechanism in order to provide accurate subject identification and tracking over the large facility.
