NDSU engineering students built a wearable device that monitors chemical exposure and vital signs for firefighters—an innovation designed to give real-time data during emergencies.
They partnered with Fargo and Moorhead Fire Departments and will test the device soon to ensure it works reliably in dangerous conditions.
