One Cool Rescue Vehicle

摘要

Ice skating is a classic winter activity, but hilling through thin ice can mean danger for the rescue team as well as the victim. "Current ice and cold water rescue technology is antiquated,' says Roger Bailey, founder and president of WISE Technology in Gilford, N.H. "It is focused on putting the rescuer on the ice or in the water, placing them at high risk of becoming victims themselves." WISE Technology's AIR (Amphibious Ice Rescue) Responder could change this: With the AIR Responder, rescuers can safely reach, recover and return a victim to shore before other methods have even deployed, according to the company.
