Emergency Services
Wireless technology has always been a critical resource for the emergency services. Radio communications gives the absolute flexibility required by these life critical public services.
Wood & Douglas has enhanced their usage of the radio spectrum by providing specialist wireless transceiver hardware into key narrow niche areas. Remote telemetry monitoring of fire crew breathing apparatus and major incident on scene real time video are typical examples of where our radio engineering skills have been successfully applied to give emergency services personnel the tools to do a more effective and safer job.
An increasing number of emergency services are consulting with Wood & Douglas’ radio engineers to develop new ways of communicating through wireless technology. Our experienced team's primary objective is to create wireless connected services that deliver the reliability and flexibility that emergency services can trust.
