A new smart helmet could help firefighters locate people in smoke-filled buildings more quickly.
Feeds from thermal imaging cameras, radars and sensors provide real-time data of their surroundings, identifying people and other fire service crew.
Dr Chris Lu from the University of Edinburgh hopes to improve real-time communication between fire crews attending an incident.
The technology which is currently being tested could also give firefighters greater mobility within an incident, enabling them to assess and exit the scene of a fire more quickly.
The project is supported by the National Robotarium which has a state-of-the-art 拢22.4 million facility at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh.
