Project plan

Problem statement and objectives

We want to do our project about rescue robots (for natural disasters).

Who are the users?

We don't know precisesly what we want to do, but the users will probably be something in the line of rescue teams, a government, help organisations and of course the victims the robots will help.

What do they require?

State of the art: literature study

To determine the state of the art surrounding our project we will do a literature study.

Disaster robotics

This article gives an overview of rescue robotics and some characteristics that may be used to classify them. The article also contains a case study of the Fukushima-Daiichi Nuclear power plant accident that gives an overview of how some robots where used. On top of that the article gives some challenges that are still present with rescue robotics.

Underwater Research and Rescue Robot

This article is about an underwater rescue robot that gives necessary feedback in rescuing missions. This underwater robot has more computng power than the current underwater drones and reduces delay by the use of ethernet cable.

Mechanical Construction and Propulsion Analysis of a Rescue Underwater Robot in the case of Drowning Persons

This article is about a unmanned life-saving system that recovers conscious or unconscious people. This prevents other people from getting themselves in a dangerous situation by trying to save others. This drone is not fully autonomous since it needs to be operated by humans.

Design and Dynamic Performance Research of Underwater Inspection Robots

Power plants along the coastline use water as cooling water. The underwater drone presented in this paper is used to research water near power plants and clean filtering systems to optimize the efficiency of the powerplant.

Semi Wireless Underwater Recue Drone with Robotic Arm

This article highlights the challenges concerning underwater rescue of people and valuable object. The biggest challenge is wireless communication due to the harsh environment. The drone is also equipped with a robotic arm to grab objects and a 4K camera with foglights to navigate properly underwater.https://www.researchgate.net/publication/363737479_Semi_Wireless_Underwater_Rescue_Drone_with_Robotic_Armhttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/363737479_Semi_Wireless_Underwater_Rescue_Drone_with_Robotic_Arm
