About

Drone-based system for disaster victim detection

The Multi-Agent Search and Rescue Drone (MASNRD) system is a human-drone collaboration framework designed to locate victims in urban natural disasters using mobile device signals. Drones equipped with radio frequency (RF) sensors detect Wi-Fi signals from trapped survivors, even through obstacles like concrete. MASNRD’s hierarchical planning algorithm assigns drones to search regions based on signal clustering, ensuring efficient coverage. The system features an intuitive user interface for real-time adjustments, enabling fast, scalable, and accurate victim detection, with a demonstrated 99.7% success rate in testing
