Tait Radio Communications has helped fund four students from the University of Canterbury's New Zealand Institute of Language, Brain and Behaviour (NZILBB) to carry out research projects in conjuction with the New Zealand Fire Service.

Tait engineer Dr Alan Murray spent time with four students while working together with NZ Fire to conduct a range of training scenarios over four weeks.

Two of the research projects focused on how firefighters operate their radios in high-noise environments. The other two projects analysed methods to improve speech intelligibility.
