How should law enforcement integrate new technologies?

Hello Smart Firefighting Community!

Welcome to another episode of covering real world innovations via interviews with fire service and technology industry experts that empower YOU to develop your very own Smart Firefighting strategy!

Thanks for joining our 16 part FRST Challenge Mini Series recorded at the competition! Tracking and situational awareness has long been a problem for first responders. That's why the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FRST Challenge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ competition is designed to pinpoint 3D tracking technologies that provide one-meter accuracy for first responders in indoor environments, crucial for enhancing their safety during rescue operations.

The 6 finalist teams competed in localization and ruggedization tests at Muscatatuck Urban Training Center from October 23-27, 2023. Winning teams gain access to funding, business support, and live field testing opportunities to evolve their solutions for real-world application.

In this episode:

• How technology must further adapt to support law enforcement needs
• The importance of including law enforcement in the conversation on indoor localization tech
• Strategies for entrepreneurs to integrate new technology into public safety
