Wireless Emergency Phone

 

From: Chuck Darling

November 22, 2024

 

Payphones are disappearing...

 

Wiring in modern cities is continuously

being cut by fiber-optic installs,

gas line and water line repairs,

and copper pirates 

 

Your parking meters are solar charged...

 

Simple Smartphones are inexpensive.

 

So inexpensive, and using so little

copper, they're not worth stealing...

 

A Smartphone mounted in a phone box,

without touch screen access, could be

voice activated to call.

 

The case could completely

surround the phone, to make it

relatively vandal-proof.

 

The calls could be monitored ...

 

911 service can be denied, re-routed to

to the line monitor, who would assess

the situation. Camera photos could

fight vandalism.

 

The city could pay for the cell service,

single lines are a dollar per day ...

 

Sometimes motorists have car trouble

and no phone.

 

Sometimes people are assaulted 

and robbed of their phones...
