A pack hunting strategy for heterogeneous robots in rescue operations.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
This study focuses on improving coordination among teams of heterogeneous robots, including unmanned aerial vehicles and unmanned ground vehicles, drawing inspiration from natural pack-hunting strategies. The goal is to increase the effectiveness of ...

Emergency Response Person Localization and Vital Sign Estimation Using a Semi-Autonomous Robot Mounted SFCW Radar.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
The large number and scale of natural and man-made disasters have led to an urgent demand for technologies that enhance the safety and efficiency of search and rescue teams. Semi-autonomous rescue robots are beneficial, especially when searching inac...

A search and rescue robot search method based on flower pollination algorithm and Q-learning fusion algorithm.

PloS one
Search algorithm plays an important role in the motion planning of the robot, it determines whether the mobile robot complete the task. To solve the search task in complex environments, a fusion algorithm based on the Flower Pollination algorithm and...

Enabling Remote Responder Bio-Signal Monitoring in a Cooperative Human-Robot Architecture for Search and Rescue.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The roles of emergency responders are challenging and often physically demanding, so it is essential that their duties are performed safely and effectively. In this article, we address real-time bio-signal sensor monitoring for responders in disaster...

Rescue Robots for the Urban Earthquake Environment.

Disaster medicine and public health preparedness
Robotics have important applications in the field of disaster medical rescue. The deployment of urban rescue robots at the earthquake site can help shorten response time, improve rescue efficiency and keep rescue personnel away from danger. This disc...

Developed multiple-layer perceptron neural network based on developed search and rescue optimizer to predict iron ore price volatility: A case study.

ISA transactions
In economic investment, the role of forecasting is very important because in an economic project, the investor must carefully examine the dimensions of the work such that one of the most important and perhaps the main factor of a future investor and ...
