TiPS Today in Public Safety with Fletch

TiPS Episode 25 0922 Talk to the CAD - Voice Activated CAD and Applications in the PSAP


Listen Later

What if your CAD worked like Alexa—but instead of playing your favorite playlist, it dispatched a fire truck? 🚒

In this episode of TiPS: Today in Public Safety, Fletch explores the rise of voice-controlled CAD and app navigation inside 911 centers. From reducing dispatcher fatigue to speeding up call handling, voice could become the dispatcher’s next big tool—but not without risks.

🔎 We cover:

  • How voice commands speed up workflow

  • Benefits for dispatcher wellness and accessibility

  • The technical hurdles: noise, accuracy, and compliance

  • The trust curve—why dispatchers may resist at first

  • The future: AI + voice, translation, and AR overlays

    This isn’t about replacing dispatchers. It’s about giving them new superpowers to keep the focus on the person who needs help.
