A UAV-based Algorithm to Assist Ground SAR Teams in Finding Lost Persons Living with Dementia
Abstract
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are now used in many applications. Our focus in this paper is on their use in public safety, specifically in search and rescue (SAR) operations involving lost persons living with dementia (LPLWD). When it comes to saving lives, there are many human factors associated with UAV operations that impact the performance of expert human SAR that could be improved through forms of automation. These include tasks …
