New Invention Helps Save Firefighters

By Dan Gould on October 22, 2008

Life Pebbles is a concept design that’s made to help disoriented firefighters find their way out of burning buildings. Working off of the Hansel and Gretal idea of leaving a trail of stones, Life Pebbles drops a line of glowing neon capsules on the ground to act as a easily viewable exit path. The device won the grand prize at the Seoul Design Competition this year.
