Part 1 of our FRST Challenge - Phase 4 Mini Series:
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!
In this episode:
- How to create solutions that are affordable, scalable, flexible, and usable
- What are the most important factors when implementing technology into public safety?
- What are the end goal aspirations for the FRST Challenge?
Hosted at the Muscatatuck Urban Training Center, the FRST Challenge is a competition focused on producing marketable prototypes that demonstrate indoor localization tracking and tracking of first responders within 1-meter accuracy without any pre-deployed infrastructure. The challenge is administered by the Indiana University Crisis Technologies Innovation Lab and funded by the NIST Public Safety Communications Research (PSCR) division.
Chief Technology Officer Dale Rolfson is the first of many competitors you'll hear from!
He's been with the Indianapolis Fire Department for almost 35 years, starting off as a recruit firefighter, drove a Ladder Truck for 14 years, and then worked as a Deputy Fire Marshal for 10 years with duties including Fire Investigation, Code Enforcement, Public Education, Communications Chief, and many other technology duties. He has been the CTO for IFD since April of 2012.
