Lifetch makes the world a safer place |

Design Objectives To meet the Lifetch objectives we formulate the following requirements for ICU:
- the ICU must have a radio interface operating in the license-free ISM band, - the ICU may have an interface to a public data network through a cellular phone, - the ICU must be able to perform routing functions between its interfaces, - the ICU must be able to receive messages at any time, - the ICU may perform other functions than safety (e.g. map display, audio playback), - the ICU must not be heavy or in another way interfere with its user's normal activity, - the ICU must not require the user to recharge its batteries often. |
