An aquatic rescue vehicle formed by adding directional and speed controls to a watercraft along with an autonomous control system to guide the vehicle to specified waypoints is disclosed. The rescue vehicle includes search devices such as a radio direction finder (RDF) and an infrared sensor (or camera) to be used to narrow the search for an isolated person (IP). The rescue vehicle may be discharged from a larger watercraft or an airplane and autonomously set out on its rescue mission. The vehicle may first navigate to a designated waypoint near an IP, and then use signals gathered from the RDF and infrared sensor to finally locate, assist, and retrieve the IP. The vehicle also includes a self-righting mechanism so that the vehicle can complete its mission even under the most adverse conditions.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for aerial-based firefighting using a suspended autonomous fire extinguisher.

According to an embodiment, a control device controls a user-wearable flight device and includes a processing unit configured to acquire state data related to a state of the flight device and manipulation data related to a manipulation of the flight device, input the acquired state data and the acquired manipulation data to a model trained using deep reinforcement learning, and control the flight device on the basis of an output result of the model to which the state data and the manipulation data are input.

The invention relates to a method for detecting and/or locating a forest fire, comprising the following method steps: detecting a source of fire in a forest area, locating the source of fire and automatically detecting and/or locating the source of fire. The invention further relates to a forest fire detection device comprising a fire sensor, a locating system and an automatic forest fire detection unit.

A swimmer emergency alerting, tracking, rescue assistance, and rip current mapping system includes a stand and a life preserver that is removably mounted to the stand. The stand includes a solar panel or other charger, and the life preserver includes a battery receiving power from the charger and a sensor that is driven by the battery, such as to detect a location of the life preserver. The stand and the life preservers may wirelessly communicate with another device, such as a user device, to provide information on a status of the stand and the life preserver. A drone may fly from the stand and collect images of a shore, and the drone may process the images to identify a rip current. The drone may use data from a watercraft identifying rip current to train the processing of the images.

An automated storage and retrieval system includes a rail system, a master control system, and a plurality of remotely operated vehicles. The rail system includes a first and second set of parallel tracks arranged orthogonally in a horizontal plane. The master control system is configured to keep track of any remotely operated vehicle operating on the rail system. The plurality of remotely operated vehicles handling storage containers, which operate on the rail system, each include first and second sets of wheels for transport on the rail system, and a fire detection device configured to transmit data from the fire detection device to the master control system. The master control system includes a processing device for processing the data from the fire detection devices so as to create a heat map of the automated storage and retrieval system.

A mobile security robot includes a human-sized mannequin mounted on a vehicle. A storage unit, mounted on the vehicle, stores security devices and high-powered energy storage devices for facilitating extended patrols without recharge. A video recording system, disposed in the mannequin, continuously records images of a patrol area. Multiple sensors mounted on and proximal to the mannequin generate sensor data based on environmental conditions of the patrol area. A computing system coupled to the sensors processes the sensor data using artificial intelligence models and generates action commands for execution of tasks by actuators including electric motors, robotic arms, and supplementary attachment devices. The electric motors run the vehicle at different speeds with wheel speed feedback based on the environmental conditions and navigate the vehicle along a predefined travel path with object avoidance during patrols. User interface devices facilitate auditory and visual communication with humans in the patrol area.

A system includes a processor that is configured to detect occurrence of a disaster, activate a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles and collect image and video data of a disaster-affected area, analyze the collected image and video data and generate a damage assessment as a three-dimensional map, visualize the generated three-dimensional map and distribute countermeasure instructions, receive information from residents of shelters and rescue workers, and extract important information by natural language analysis, and determine rescue activity instructions and support goods transport routes based on the extracted information.

The system according to the embodiment comprises an activation unit, a data collection unit, an analysis unit, and a visualization unit. The activation unit activates a drone. The data collection unit processes data collected by the drone activated by the activation unit. The analysis unit analyzes the data collected by the data collection unit. The visualization unit visualizes the data analyzed by the analysis unit.

A system includes a processor that controls an operable flying device, controls an operable imaging means, performs real-time analysis of generated data using artificial intelligence processing means, calculates an optimal rescue route based on the analysis results, controls means for loading and transporting supplies with the flying device, controls means for deploying equipment in regions where communication is disrupted and collecting local condition data, analyzes the collected data to generate emergency response information, and communicates the emergency response information to external rescue organizations.
