The advances made by companies like Tesla with their actively sensing cars and autonomous controls have created a valuable demand for a smarter and more connected world. Another emerging field is autonomy and artificial intelligence. Commercial drones have become so popular that the UK government have now implemented a licensing law for larger or more advanced vehicles (similar to a car license plate system). However, in recent years, there have been major developments in drone and autonomous technology. The problem is mainly due to the technology being very expensive as well as it being a very new field of technological development. These devices can gather masses of information and allow for a more prepared and effective mission, operation or search party.
These advanced K-9 Units can be used on small scale scenarios like a house fire or property search as well as on a larger scale operation perhaps by search and rescue teams following a natural disaster like a forest fire, tsunami or earthquake.Ī better-unmanned system which can be used in these same ways (and more) without risk of animal and human lives is with UAV drones and rovers. The video feed along with other data is transmitted to the dog’s handler, giving them information about the situation and environment before engaging other resources - like people.
These canines are fitted with cameras and sensors. An example of this is how camera dogs are used to perform reconnaissance, assess a situation, search an area and find missing people. Technology has been used in the past to assist the emergency services in the UK, and in many other countries on a global scale. Fire deaths have tripled and response times have almost doubled in some areas, leading to the idea that new technologies such as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) drones could help reduce deaths, decrease response times and provide aid, in many forms, to the emergency services.ĭevices such as a drone can do many things that rescue teams cannot and produce important data to help operations. With the increasing threat of climate change, greater populations and consequently, more extreme environmental events - the need for better emergency rescue services is paramount.
