Abstract

This review aims to present recent improvements and existing challenges in the design of wearable sensors used in the firefighters’ protective clothing. Wearable sensors are generally used directly on the body or placed on wearable items to monitor data for the safety of firefighters. Recently, wearable sensors have attracted much attention from researchers and experts. Most investigations have addressed novel designs for wearable sensors to enhance firefighters’ safety measures and reduce the risk of exposure to fires. This article is an attempt to review design limitations of wearable sensors for future developments and improve existing shortcomings. The growing body of knowledge focused on the application of wearable technology to monitor firefighters’ activity, health, and body temperature. In the following, we have discussed the trials of the design of the existing sensors. Finally, moisture and radiation as common exterior parameters in fire events are discussed which received less attention and have major impact on the performance of firefighters’ wearable sensors.
用于消防员防护服的可穿戴传感器的挑战和局限性
本文综述了消防员防护服中使用的可穿戴传感器的最新改进和存在的挑战。可穿戴式传感器一般直接使用在身体上或放置在可穿戴物品上,以监测消防员的安全数据。近年来,可穿戴传感器受到了研究人员和专家的广泛关注。大多数调查都涉及可穿戴传感器的新设计,以增强消防员的安全措施并降低暴露于火灾中的风险。本文试图回顾可穿戴传感器的设计局限性,以促进未来的发展,并改进现有的缺点。越来越多的知识集中在可穿戴技术的应用上,以监测消防员的活动、健康和体温。在下面,我们讨论了现有传感器设计的试验。最后,讨论了火灾事件中常见的外部参数湿度和辐射,这两个参数受到的关注较少,但对消防员可穿戴传感器的性能影响较大。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Fire Sciences is a leading journal for the reporting of significant fundamental and applied research that brings understanding of fire chemistry and fire physics to fire safety. Its content is aimed toward the prevention and mitigation of the adverse effects of fires involving combustible materials, as well as development of new tools to better address fire safety needs. The Journal of Fire Sciences covers experimental or theoretical studies of fire initiation and growth, flame retardant chemistry, fire physics relative to material behavior, fire containment, fire threat to people and the environment and fire safety engineering. This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
