Billings Fire Department signs up for chemical plume monitoring technology produced by Billings-based Diamond B Companies
The Billings Fire Department is the latest organization to sign on as an early adopter of a new system that pinpoints and tracks chemical plumes.
It’s the newest technology from Diamond B Companies http://www.diamondbco.com/ , based in the TransTech Center on the Billings West End. Last summer Diamond B signed an exclusive licensing deal with the U.S. Army to produce commercially the Local-Rapid Evaluation of Atmospheric Conditions, or L-REAC.
The system, designed by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory, uses 3-D modeling, sensors, real-time maps and cloud technology to pinpoint chemical plumes. The research lab was awarded a patent for the technology last month.
