Design of Smart Protective Clothing for Earthquake Rescue

In response to the high-intensity rescue demands caused by frequent earthquakes and the current lack of specialized rescue equipment, this paper presents the design of an intelligent earthquake rescue suit suitable for complex disaster environments. The system integrates life detection, emergency communication, and protective structures, consisting of sensor units, communication modules, a power supply, and a control system. Through terminal devices, it enables data acquisition and remote transmission. The garment design incorporates ergonomics and the specific requirements of rescue operations to optimize structural layout, enhance comfort and operational flexibility, and improve environmental adaptability. Digital modeling and functional demonstrations are used to visualize the overall design, and user experience testing and functional verification are conducted. Results show that the smart rescue suit effectively supports life detection and communication in earthquake scenarios, improving rescue efficiency and safety, and offering a novel intelligent solution for emergency response equipment.
