The NIST Distributed Testbed for First Responders
(DTFR) is a project to examine the role future
technologies could play in first responder communications.
  
Instead of being a dedicated radio, each node in the testbed
is a handheld computing device. For more details, follow this
http://w3.antd.nist.gov/comm_net_ps.shtml

DTFR offers an array of advanced capabilities for first
responders and public safety officers. These capabilities
include private (one-to-one), group (teleconferencing), 
broadcast voice and data communications, streaming
video, sensor information communication, and indoor 3D 
localization and tracking of responders, officers, civilians
and assets.  Furthermore, DTFR has interoperability with
the Internet, PSTN, and cellular telephone networks.
