With the deep integration of new technologies such as information and communication technology, new materials, artificial intelligence, and big data with traditional industries, the emergency industry will surely usher in unprecedented opportunities in new technologies, new products, new formats and new models. The development of intelligent rescue products represented by drones and robots is progressing smoothly and gradually emerges, and the prospects are promising.

 

Rescue drone development significance

 

With the maturity of drone technology and the further expansion of aerial photography technology, our national UAV applications are becoming more and more extensive, including: photogrammetry, emergency response, public safety, resource exploration, environmental monitoring, natural disaster monitoring and evaluation, Urban planning and municipal management, forest fire pest protection and monitoring.

 

As early as the end of the 1990s, the United States began to apply drones to disaster monitoring and rescue, but in China, drones have not been put into emergency applications such as earthquake disasters. Until 2008, the Wenchuan Earthquake occurred. The Chinese Academy of Sciences research team first tried to apply the remote sensing drone to the epicenter of the epicenter, and then in the post-disaster emergency rescue such as Yushu, Heshan and Lushan earthquakes, the remote sensing drones played for the first time. The more important the role. The practice of multiple emergency rescues proves that the drone can quickly enter the aerial photography of the disaster area after the earthquake. Now it can remotely and real-time command and return clear images in real time. The drone is low in cost, easy to operate, and quick to respond. The investigation is more efficient; with drones, experts can concentrate on the rear and quickly assess the damage, so they have unique advantages.

 

In addition to the aerial disaster situation, the current UAV technology can also realize the mounting of a variety of load modules, "transformation" mobile communication base stations, as well as the rescue potential of post-disaster transportation, delivery of materials, and shouting. Therefore, the drone will be an indispensable or even irreplaceable aviation force in emergency rescue.

 

Rescue robot development significance

 

In recent years, emergencies such as wars and terrorist attacks, natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis, and potential nuclear, chemical, biological and explosive materials have seriously threatened human life and property. As the number of disasters increases, its severity, diversity, and complexity increase. 72h after the disaster occurred as a gold rescue time, but due to the unstructured environment at the disaster site, rescuers were unable to work quickly, efficiently, and safely, and the rescue mission gradually exceeded the capabilities of rescuers. Therefore, the rescue robot Has become an important development direction.

 

Through summarization and summary, the rescue robot has the following four advantages: 1) strong mobility and handling ability, and continuous operation through battery replenishment, improve search and rescue efficiency; 2) can carry a variety of sensors to achieve the map inside the ruins , sound, gas, temperature and other tests, effectively lock the victim's position; 3) fast speed; 4) robot rescue can assist or replace rescuers, avoid the damage caused by the second collapse, reduce the risk of rescue workers.

 

Modern aid should be more urgently combined with national science and technology. The developed countries have higher levels of science and technology. They should help the fast-moving industries to play faster. At present, a relatively complete industrial chain has been formed. Only rescue robotization has become its national development strategy. In China, the rescue intelligence started late, and the economic impact was low in the early stage, which led to slow development. With the implementation of the National 13th Five-Year Plan, China's disaster relief machinery industry received high attention. With the training of China's rescue drone support force, the establishment of a large database of drones and the introduction of relevant laws, China's aid to the UAV industry will enter a professional development and promote the development of the rescue drone industry.
