High Priority Technology Needs 6
Responder Technologies • Location Tracking System – Provide real-time location positioning and monitoring of first responders • Physiological Health Monitoring – Provide real-time health status of first responders to Responders and Incident Commanders Critical Technologies to Provide Situational Awareness and Save Lives
Locate 1 st Responders in X, Y, and Z “The Inter Agency Board, a working group of first responders that identifies and approves technologies for use by police, fire and ambulance services, has listed the development of a 3 -D tracking system as one of its top research priorities … Commanders want icons on a screen showing them where all their personnel are, especially while they’re inside buildings … “ Chief Bob Ingram, FDNY and IAB Chairman National Defense Magazine, March 2008 http: //www. nationaldefensemagazine. org/issues/2008/March/Tracking. htm
Capability to Requirements REQUIREMENTS • Capability Need – Allow emergency managers, including fire chiefs and other incident commanders, to rapidly and effectively deploy and re-deploy their forces or understand respond to the consequences of potential threats to their forces – Accurately locate and track incident responders in X-Y-Z • Targeted situation areas – Inside of threatened buildings – Collapsed buildings – Subterranean facilities or underground • Specify the location of its host in three dimensions within 6 meters (3 meters desired) • *Assume building is not instrumented* • Function in the extreme operational environments encountered by emergency responders • Incident life of 2 hours or longer (4 hours desired) • Include a distress button and indicator of non-movement • Wirelessly transmit inside or outside of structures and through rubble to an off-site incident command post, on-site incident command posts, emergency responders • Self-initializing, calibrating, adjusting, and with diagnostic capabilities to ensure speed and reliability • Resistant to potentially damaging electrical charge, protected from potentially dangerous gases, impact resistant, and waterproof • Operate outside all buildings and inside of almost all buildings, no matter their structural state and environmental conditions • Primary incident command posts should be able to monitor the status of the locator and its host from a radial distance from 30 meters to 100 meters (per relay) • Base station is a combination of additional communications equipment and the laptop/portable computer and required software. • Base station software must be able to display location and identification of personnel. • Base station software must be able to link the unique identifier of the locator to a specific individual • Base station must include visualization tools to allow incident commanders and site personnel to easily interpret incoming displayed information • And many more …
Prototype Unit
Future Enhancements • System robustness • Improved accuracy • Form/Fit/Function • Ranging • Cost reduction • T&E with large groups of 1 st Responders – Current plan: NY (Aug), Seattle (Sep), Cincinnati (Aug), Chicago (Aug) • Algorithms, SW • Network, bandwidth • Integration of new components Planned FY 09 Program
