Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) is developing rapidly and is integrated into all aspects of life. Clothing is an indispensable part of meeting the basic needs of the human body, and its traditional functions include warmth, health care, decoration, and beauty. While as a special type of clothing that integrates multidisciplinary technology, smart clothing has a wider scope of action. With the update and iteration of science and technology, many technologies that originally belonged to nonclothing disciplines have also been applied to the clothing field. Accordingly, for the special clothing category of smart clothing based on embedded system, a set of design process that can be used for this category of smart clothing was proposed. Using this design process, an intelligent fire suit that can be used to protect the personal safety of firefighters and assist firefighters to cooperate was designed and implemented. Starting from the daily working environment and working characteristics of firefighters, this firefighting obedience analyzed the design points from the perspectives of clothing comfort, warning, toxic and harmful gas monitoring, and firefighters’ cooperation. After testing, the test results of the outer layer fabric, waterproof and moisture-permeable layer fabric, and thermal insulation and comfort layer fabric of the fire suit all met the corresponding national standards; the monitoring sensitivity of harmful gases was high; it could achieve a “good” warning effect in a dark environment. Compared with ordinary firefighting suits, it was more comfortable under the subjective and objective test and scored 0.669 higher under the seven-point scale; its interactive performance met the actual needs. The clothing has complete functions and a complete feedback mechanism, which has a positive effect on ensuring the personal safety of firefighters.
