Abstract

A lighting apparatus, a method and a system for processing an emergency procedure are provided. The system includes two or more lighting apparatuses that are interconnected for forming a mesh network over an area. In the method, the lighting apparatus is activated to illuminate a surveillance zone under an emergency mode. In the meantime, a camera circuit is driven to capture a series of images of the surveillance zone for conduct motion detection. When a moving object is detected, the lighting apparatus transmits a beacon signal in response to the detection result. In the meantime, an acknowledgement signal in response to the beacon signal is generated by a signal source and received by the lighting apparatus. After that, the identifier with respect to the lighting apparatus is transmitted to a control center for obtaining the position of the lighting apparatus.
