New Eiris Go mobile App Extends Real Time Location Alerts to Emergency Field OperationsEiris Go brings Eiris real-time location alert monitoring and management to first responders, anywhere at any time. Eiris Go receives prioritized, targeted alerts, ensuring that the appropriate response teams receive the correct alerts. With Eiris Go, emergency field personnel can receive immediate, up-to-date, indoor, location positioning data about the location of a security situation as the incident unfolds.

Eiris Go is beneficial in many markets including healthcare, correctional and commercial. Eiris Go can be used by care providers for rapid response to a resident’s medical needs. Security officers can receive urgent duress calls on their mobile phones and assign them to specific security incidents.

Eiris Go includes voice-based, emergency calling functionality when backup assistance is required by the responding field personnel. Additionally Eiris Go has a speed-dial feature so that the responder can actually place a voice call into the location of the incident.

“For emergency field personnel, where response time is critical, delivering the location of the security incident to a mobile phone can optimize response time, gaining critical seconds, which makes the difference,” stated Michael Wasserstein, general manager of Elpas. “Eiris Go helps manage emergency situation response efforts and is another tool in the flexible notification system already available through the Eiris RTLS Management Software.”

Eiris Go is available for immediate download from either the Apple App Store or from Google Play.

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
