Increasing frequency of natural disasters has underscored the critical need for effective and efficient rescue operations. Rescue teams face significant challenges in accessing disaster sights and providing support to the victims.

Also drone networks have two types of drones, one which will detect the humans, and one for carrying resources. This network can amplify the efficiency of the rescue teams, and can make the process easier and simpler.

摘要

Increasing frequency of natural disasters has underscored the critical need for effective and efficient rescue operations. Rescue teams face significant challenges in accessing disaster sights and providing support to the victims. There are places where the rescuers cannot access or reduced sight due to extreme environmental factors. Here we have our proposed idea of using a Global Positioning System (GPS) enabled drone with camera and infrared sensors that will detect, in real time and mark them on the map on our server. The drone network will detect the humans using the camera and mark the location using the inbuilt GPS. The human detection model will run on a packaged Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), without the need for high resources for detection. Also, victims can converse with the rescue teams in real time using a wifi based walkie-talkie system, in order to gain more knowledge about the surroundings and the state of the victims. Also drone networks have two types of drones, one which will detect the humans, and one for carrying resources. This network can amplify the efficiency of the rescue teams, and can make the process easier and simpler.
