SARHesa

The Safety and Rescue Helmet for Enhanced Situational Awareness

About the SARHesa

The Problem

First Responders and Search and Rescue(SAR) Teams are not provided with enough funds to purchase a device with the all-in-one capabilites of tracking localized location, communication, and better vision for the user.

The Solution

The SARHesa is an afordable minimum viable product that will track the user's localized location, allow communication between users, and provide enhanced vision using Near-Infrared(NIR) technology. The SARHesa is an integrated solution that has the potential to save lives.

The Modules

  • Localized Location Module: uses the Global Positioning System to track the user of the SARHesa
  • Communications Module: provides clear, reliable voice and GPS data communications between users.
  • Augmented Vision Module: to show the location of the user, to show a video feed in NIR.
  • Power Module: sufficiently powers the SARHesa for sustained periods of time.
