"It's been a great opportunity to have our scientists and engineers and some of the junior people of AFRL come out and get some real-world operational experience and take those experiences back and make sure the technologies that we're developing better fit the needs of our warfighters," Maj. Jared Ekholm, Warrior Squadron commander, said.
What wearable technology did the Air Force recently test?
Answer: the BioStampRC
In a recent field test, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) equipped about 200 military and civilian personnel with technology to simulate use in a war zone. The BioStampRC Wearable Sensing Platform, which was used during the tests as part of a Tech Warrior event, is a patch that when attached, provided researchers with performance metrics and medical information about those being tested.
