Handheld PDA The PDA used with the wireless sensor is housed in a rugged, weathertight case. It displays a black square when motion is detected. When reathing only is detected, a red circle is displayed. These dots also indicate the distance to the victim from the sensor. Motion can be detected up to 20 feet away and breathing is indicated up to 15 feet away from where the victims are buried. The LifeLocator PDA can receive data up to 50 feet away from the sensor.
Wireless Sensor The rugged sensor, which sends wireless data to the PDA, is contained in a bright red orange box that is 18” x 18” and weighs only 21 pounds. Using the mounted handles, the operator moves the sensor in a regular pattern over the debris to cover the required search area. The PDA display will indicate breathing or motion when the sensor is above or near the victim. |
