technology in the service of humanity
Like no other technology before, AI has the ability to augment and enhance each and every aspect of smartfirefighter of the future.
Latest AI excels at suggesting appropriate emergency incident response actions what has enormous potential to help save firefighter’s lives and reduce the amount of time they are in a high-risk and dangerous environment.
Machine learning and data science approaches for firefighters can collect and analyze on-scene video, images and parameters like temperature, gases, weather condition, personal health risks and other hazardous environmental factors firefighters might not independently recognize in an effort to fight fires. The all mentioned video and sensor’s data may be used to make advanced, intelligent recommendations specific to roles within the firefighting team. It may also offer suggestions on how to efficiently use resources during emergency incident response.
As time is critical in emergency situations all decisions made by rescuers and firefighters must be made instantly.
These are exactly the situations where AI’s key benefits like speed, scale and near-time ability to huge amount of information processing are coming to help rescuers. By real-time analysis of the collected parameters, data and patterns AI can clearly identify current situation and send to smartfirefighters early warnings and predictions for potentially dangerous events using built-in AR display.
Combined with the resources available in a dedicated cloud-based solution integrated with the smartfirefighter system it provides almost unlimited possibilities for emergency data analysis and prediction of upcoming, possibly dangerous events.
The similar, real-world solutions for the in-building flashover analysis are under development already.
In combination with other AI powered event predictions it can be a powerful toolset in smartfirefighter arsenal soon.
