Turnout Gear from Viking : Thermal Sensor Technology
This invention is for firefighters because it helps them in their line of work. The Turnout Gear from Viking offers the protection of Thermal Sensor Technology (TST) and the comfort of Smart Textiles.
If a firefighter were to put this suit in a situation where they have to attend to a firefighting mission the suit will show them critical hot spots on the suit. This makes them aware of their vulnerability so they won’t put themselves into further danger while doing their work. It has a LED display on the upper left shoulder which will turn on in the event that danger is suspected. This will inform the firefighter to look out and be aware. There is another LED display on the sleeve, which informs if the firefighter’s mate is in danger.
This is a very useful suit and something that people working in the firefighting department should consider for a purchase.
