Camera-equipped mini-UAVS to support search & rescue teams
Abstract
Current practice in Wilderness Search and Rescue (WiSAR) can be viewed
as a collaborative system designed to gather and analyze information to find
missing persons in remote areas. The system consists of multiple parts - various
tools for information management (maps, GPS, etc) distributed across personnel
with different skills and responsibilities. Introducing a camera-equipped mini-
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (mini-UAV) into WiSAR requires autonomy and
information technology that itself is an integrated intelligent system to be used by a
sub-team that must be integrated into the overall collaborative system. We review
component technology that offloads or supplements many responsibilities to
autonomous systems, and describe how autonomy and information are integrated
into user interfaces to better support distributed search across time and space. The
integrated system has been developed through a series of flight tests and field
trials, and has also been demonstrated to Utah County Search and Rescue
personnel. Searchers have used the technology to successfully locate a simulated
missing person in a wilderness area.
