VIP at Intel – Thanks Rick!

Amazing tech stuff happening from the teams at Intel.

  
Thanks to Rick, I was able to stop by and chat about a few new programs.

  
I love talking about the possibilities by utilizing 3D recognition. So many uses including medical, USAR, thermal signature, and mapping. They are even looking to drone tech…LOVE IT!!

  
Looking forward to the big tech announcements upcoming.

Many mahalos to Rick and all the teams at Intel.

We worked several large incidents and events for Fire/EMS as well as Emergency Management. Tim is an incredible resource for NE Ohio. I am so glad to see that he will continue to serve the area for the American Red Cross.

Ryan has a different perspective on fire and technology – all kinds of stuff you should hear.
