DHS S&T, in conjunction with NASA JPL, is researching approaches to bring the possibilities of IoT to emergency communications for first responders today.
WAMS currently under development by DHS S&T, in partnership with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), is a distributed, intelligent IoT communication system that will bring seamless situational awareness to first responders.
To support S&T’s mission to provide first responders with the tools and technologies they need, the Voice, Video, and Data Portfolio was established to address how first responders send and receive information.
