Collaborative Floating Devices, Autonomous Detection and Mapping

In urban flood scenarios, a network of solar-powered floating beacons is strategically deployed across vulnerable areas to enhance disaster response. Each beacon is equipped with a microprocessor running an AI-based voice recognition system and GPS technology, enabling it to detect distress calls from individuals in need. Upon recognizing a call for help, the beacon instantly transmits its precise GPS coordinates to a central base station. The base station then dispatches a drone equipped with a high-resolution camera to the location to capture visual data, confirming the presence of individuals requiring assistance. This allows rescue teams to respond swiftly and effectively, prioritizing critical areas. This innovative system showcases the transformative power of collaborative autonomous technologies, revolutionizing urban flood response by enabling rapid, precise, and life-saving interventions.
