Overview –Grayling Wireless USA
Grayling Wireless USA Inc. is an emerging player in emergency communications, management software and consulting industries. Grayling was initially formed in July 2001 for the purpose of developing and commercializing ClearCalm Advantage, an innovative safety communications system. Grayling went public in August 2003 (OTC Pink Sheets: GRYW) Grayling’s core product, ClearCalm Advantage is a proprietary, revolutionary hands-free, wireless, voice-activated communications system that works with Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA). ClearCalm has wide-ranging applications that include use by firefighters and first response personnel, industrial personnel and implementation in any situation where the constraints of safety, space and technology limit the availability or efficiency of traditional forms of communication.
ClearCalm – Hands Free, Wireless, Voice Activated SCBA Communications
Unlike currently available products, ClearCalm is a hands free system embedded in the SCBA mask. ClearCalm uses a digital platform to ensure clear communication, unimpeded by background noise including breathing and situation related noise. First responders (firefighters and other emergency response personnel) are very positive about ClearCalm as a potentially life saving link in hazardous situations. The core product ClearCalm is modular designed to work with existing Scott SCBA apparatus and with existing commonly used two-way radio systems.
