First Responder Tracking & Vitals Monitor

Problem Statement

According to the US Fire Administration in conjunction with FEMA: 46.5% of fatal injuries are due to heart attacks.

The monitoring of vitals will aid supervisors in preventing injury or death of first responders.

Tracking location will allow for rapid recovery of injured personnel.

The mapping of building’s interior will give fire fighters a better understanding of a hazardous situation.

Current System’s Shortfalls

PHASER - does not provide location data which is necessary to rapidly extract injured first responders

GLANSER – provides location data but does not provide vitals

HARRISGR100 – provides mapping and location data however does not provide vitals

The Final Product

Vitals Monitoring

Real time monitoring of vitals will help prevent life threatening conditions such as:

Heatstroke Heart attack

The fire fighter unit will monitor: Heart Rate Body Temperature Blood O2 levels

Tracking

Tracking of personnel in a hazardous environment will allow for rapid extrication in the event of injury.

Tracking will be accomplished by triangulation.

Triangulation data will be used in conjunction with the mapping module to produce an interior model of the building.

Interior Mapping

The firefighter unit will be connected to a

LIDAR device to measure distances to

obstructions from the individual. This data

will be used to construct a map of the interior

of the environment.
