A lightweight and comfortable chest strap that provides individual physiological data in real-time.
Designed to withstand even the most stressful environments
Embedded life-sign sensors that relay heart rate, breathing rate, activity, posture and skin temperature data to a remote command center in real time
At-a-glance, easy-to-read interface that alerts commanders and safety officers to potential problem situations Integrates easily into existing radio and telemetry systems
The VivoResponder™ system can help safety officers and incident commanders determine when their key personnel are in danger by indicating when incoming data appears to be abnormal during:
Firefighting and hazmat training
Fire and hazmat emergencies
Industrial clean-ups with heavy, hot, protective gear
Biohazard occupational work
