One of the things that we will be working in #SYNERGISE project (EU H2022) with Ελληνική Ομάδα Διάσωσης Αττικής – Hellenic Rescue Team of Attica is to integrate wearable sensors to monitor our team’s biometrics during the mission deployment. It is critical for the safety and efficiency of our FR element, designing “smart” alerts such as when there are hints of excessive physical stress, emerging dehydration, etc.
Below there are two such examples of data logs, recorded by a simple running smartwatch: On the left, running with a first aid backpack through a stadium full of 65.000 people in a concert towards a real emergency (victim). On the right, a normal training run (heat/dehydration conditioning) in the city at 37C during a heatwave. Datasets like these will be the basis for our work in the next months.
