Suit Warns Firefighters when They are about to get Burned

Suit Warns Firefighters when They are about to get Burned
Feb-01-20
Current suits are heat resistant up to a certain temperature, but also numb a firefighters's senses as to how hot they are actually getting, and can result in injuries and burns.

A new smart suit from Imec with built-in sensors will alert firefighters to dangerously high temperatures and drastically reduce burn injuries.

When temperatures become too high, the firefighter receives an audible warning signal so they can act to remove themselves from danger.
