Patent attributes
The network enabled fire sensor and fire extinguishing system is a fire-fighting apparatus comprising a plurality of extinguisher modules. The plurality of extinguisher modules forms a wireless communication link between: a) the plurality of extinguisher modules, and, b) with an appropriate authority. When triggered by fire, the individual extinguisher module: c) releases a fire extinguishing chemical; and, d) transmits an alert message to both the appropriate authority and to the individual extinguisher modules remaining in the plurality of extinguisher modules containing the GPS coordinates of the transmitting individual extinguisher module. Each selected individual extinguisher module compares the GPS coordinates of the selected individual extinguisher mode to the GPS coordinates of the module alert message. If the span of the distance between the two coordinates is less than a previously determined span of distance, than the selected individual extinguisher module releases a fire retardant chemical.
