The document discusses using drones to improve emergency response services in Pakistan. It found that most people surveyed found current emergency services unsatisfactory and response times too slow. Using drones could help by reducing response times through tasks like reconnaissance, identifying problem locations, and providing alternate routes. The proposed solution involves developing an autonomous drone system with object detection capabilities. This would allow emergency services to respond faster without risking human lives. It provides block diagrams of the drone's avionics and control systems and discusses autonomy, imaging, and computer vision capabilities. Financial estimates and support needed for commercialization are also summarized.

6. • Problem Slow Response Time
• Problem Waste of Resource(fuel, human resource)
• First responders life at risk (During Assessment of situation)
• Route Blockades
• Swift Rescue/Response
• Pin Point the location/Problem(Reconnaissance)
• Military Surveillance
• No Human Life at risk(During Assessment of Situation)
• Providing Alternative Routes

7. Project Survey
Different questions regarding the emergency response services in Pakistan were asked
the statistics are given as below:
A total number of 90 people including men and women above 18 years participated in
the survey
• 88.5% people considered the emergency services provided in Pakistan
were unsatisfactory
• 75.8% people agreed that the emergency response time in Pakistan was
slow
• 47.1% people regarded medical aid as the first thing to be provided to
the affectees among other options
• 91.5% people considered drone as a useful agent in reducing emergency
response time
• 58.2% people preferred long endurance fuel powered drone over electric
powered low endurance drone.

15. FLIGHT CONTROLLER SOFTWARE
• Interaction between:
• User and the aircraft
• Aircraft and its hardware
• The best example of an open
source software product for
drones is 3DRobotics’
ArduPilot powered by Google
• It consists of a:
• Navigation software: Firmware, either Copter/Plane running on
the vehicle
• A ground station controlling software like Mission Planner, APM
Planner, tower etc.

20. • Low Service Cost
• Self owned drones
(No third Part involved)
• Use of Drones instead of
relying on satellite
imagery or larger aircraft

21. Our Sky Aid UAV helps emergency
services in reducing response time by
identifying the problem epicenters.

22. Ease of Adoption
• Mass deployment since the project is easy to manufacture.
• Easy to use autopilot system with a drag and drop mission
planner and live video transmission.
• Failsafe for EVERYTHING

25. Support required from different
stakeholders
As we are from technical
background we would need
support in commercialization
of our project and moreover in
launching it as a product.

26. FUTURE DIRECTION
Expand our application to
• Incorporate in police operations
• Reforestation
• Agriculture
Working on launching a startup and provide our services !
