EDITOR'S NOTE

FireFusion brings together operations and department leadership with technological tools, software, and programs designed to move the fire service forward.

A sampling of the topics covered in this unique curriculum of sessions include incident command, accountability and personnel management solutions; artificial intelligence (AI) for training and daily operations; drones and robotics; high-tech tools and equipment; and how technology that’s outside of the fire service affects emergency scenes. 

FireFusion takes place Nov. 5-7, 2024, at the Charleston Gaillard Center in Charleston, SC. Registration is open, but act fast, as attendance will be limited.

Stay safe!

Jason Moore tells how intelligent traffic control and preemption, data collection and exchange, and a more sophisticated use of drones are possible when fire organizations reach out to other departments.

The keynote address at FireFusion will serve to highlight the event’s overall worth for providing attendees with information about how emerging technologies can pave the way for improved training, responses and equipment cycles.
Implementing and reinforcing “communications expectations” helps crews that are on the fireground by establishing standard processes. Here, the first-arriving engine officer gives his size-up. At the author’s department (Plano, TX, Fire-Rescue), the expectation is for the size-up to be a simple snapshot of conditions. For example, “Engine 1’s on scene. We have a two-story house, smoke showing from a window on the Alpha/Bravo corner. I’ll be getting a 360. Make this a working fire.”
Jaime Reyes is likely to spark some thoughts regarding radio exchanges at the scene of fires through his insistence that far more attention must be paid to the process.
Zephyr has partnered with Globe to integrate its PSM into a fire-resistant base layer shirt.
Jeff King discusses how to use technology to identify a problem before it becomes an emergency, specifically related to physiological status monitoring.
