Fireslayer Challenge: Thermal Response - More than just a game
"Fireslayer Challenge: Thermal Response " gives firefighters a new and interactive tool to train with in the use of a thermal imaging cameras. The game requires players to react to instructions given by a fictitious fire chief. With the help of MSA’s Evolution 5200 TIC, players must navigate a smoke-filled environment to rescue victims and find the seat of the fire before exhausting all the air in their SCBA. The game was previewed recently at the annual Fire Department Instructors Conference in Indianapolis, Ind., and is being made available as a free download.
The key tool used in Fireslayer Challenge is the thermal imaging camera, which in real applications, utilizes infrared technology that allows firefighters to “see” through smoke and in the dark. Introduced in the mid ’90s, TICs enable firefighters to locate trapped victims in conditions with zero visibility, pinpoint the seat of a fire and identify “hotspots” after a fire has been brought under control.
The development of TIC training that uses video gaming technology to demonstrate the effectiveness of such a tool is clearly the next evolution in this category. MSA is excited about making the game available to fire departments around the country, and looks forward to the feedback and reactions from the firefighters benefiting from it, as well as the gamers.
