Kyndryl and AWS have developed an IoT solution to enhance firefighter safety at the edge in the face of intensifying wildfires and urban fires, using wearable devices with environmental sensors to monitor toxin exposure and health vitals in real-time. The solution transmits data to an AWS IoT/Data platform for analysis, presenting a color-coded status on a command dashboard that allows fire incident commanders to make informed decisions about firefighter health, positioning and evacuation need. This award-winning technology not only provides real-time situational awareness and automated record-keeping but also streamlines insurance claims and offers a user-friendly, compliant solution that can be adapted for worker safety solutions in industrial, energy and manufacturing sites.
