  • Patent number: 11879203
    Abstract: A mobile vehicle that is self-contained and equipped to wash firefighter gear at the firefighter's station. The vehicle would be on a dispatched network and be activated after an incident, and for scheduled cleanings on a regular basis; the vehicle having the required equipment to clean all contaminated gear by use of a sonic cleaner, extractors, and dryers. The process includes monitoring the life of the gear and decontaminating the gear in accordance with the gear manufacturer's recommendations. Gear that has been cleaned is reassembled, wrapped, sealed and placed back into a fireman's station, giving the firefighter the assurance that their firefighting gear was cleaned, sanitized, and serviced per the manufacturer's recommendations.

  • Patent number: 11030894
    Abstract: System and method for tracking at least one device in real-time. A position encoding unit is configured to detect a position of the device, which is configured to move in a first direction. A stage is configured to selectively move with a forward axis of travel and a reverse axis of travel substantially parallel to the first direction and having a stage speed controllable by a controller. A ranged imaging unit is fixedly mounted to the stage and may selectively scan the device upon command. The controller is configured to obtain a speed of the device. When the device reaches a pre-programmed position, the stage is selectively moved at the stage speed synchronized to the speed of the device to within a predefined match value. The ranged imaging unit is employed to determine dimensional characteristics of the device.
