MOBILE C2I OPERATOR
The call starts by dialing 911...
Contacting 911When making a report to 911, integration on the device level ensures a seamless IP based calling experience for the user. When the voice call is connected, the camera is activated and begins streaming live video to the PSAP.
The user can initiate a phone call using voice (i.e “Siri call the police) or touch (dialing the numbers 911 on their phone).

In addition to live video & audio at the scene of reported events, the system provides dispatchers with caller’s personal details, pinpointing location and a reliability rating. In the event that a reporter is unable to speak, our 2-way live chat feature allows the operator to communicate with the caller instantly and clearly.

Network & Infrastructure
The system architecture diagram reflects the modularity of the infrastructure and represent the various components and their dedicated role within the full ecosystem.
Full Ecosystem for Emergency Services
Indoor PositionReporty Fused Statistical Machine Learning and Inertial Odometry algorithm enable collection of unique RF signatures created by Wi-Fi and BLE transmitters. The system harnesses the widespread of commodity Wi-Fi routers and BLE emerging technology in indoor spaces and together with the power of the crowd auto-maps our indoor environments in order to provide upon demand an accurate micro-positioning in real-time.
Exact indoor position including elevation
Both the FCC and public safety community are working towards a more accurate indoor positioning location technology. We are happy to work hand-in-hand with regulatory bodies and advocates to help overcome technical roadblocks.
Carbyne has worked with emergency personnel, governments, and public safety groups internationally to ensure that a technology can be developed that both locates people outdoors and indoors but still respects the privacy of citizens.
Carbyne has worked with cell phone carriers internationally and is looking to bring this cooperation to the United States.

RouterA ‘Virtual call router’(Patented) is used to optimize communication via: UMTS, 3G, 4G, LTE and Wi-Fi and enable split communication in case of low bandwidth availability. Reporty’s application automatically optimizes voice and video communication by identifying the most steady method of communication with the command and control center and continuously monitors the communication for disruptions or weakening signals thus adapting the protocols accordingly, striving for seamless transmission of data to emergency responders.
