WHITE - DONKEY: Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for searching missing people
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
Searching for a missing person is not an easy task to accomplish,so over the years search methods have been developed, the problem is that the methods currently available have certain limitations and these limitations are reflected in time location. Time location in a person search is a very important factor that rescuers cannot afford to waste because the missing person is exposed to great dangers. In people search the vision system of the human being plays a very important role. The human visual system has the ability to detect and identify objects such as trees, walls, people among others besides to estimate the distance to them, this gives the human being the possibility of moving in their environment. With the development of artificial intelligence primarily to computer vision it is possible to model the human visual perception and generate computer software needed to simulate these capabilities. Using computer vision is expected to search for any missing person designing and implementing algorithms in order to an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle perform this task, also thanks to the speed of this is expected to reduce the time location. By using of a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is not intended to replace the human being in the difficult task of searching and rescuing people but rather is intended to serve as a support tool in performing this difficult task.

A Review of Computation Solutions by Mobile Agents in an Unsafe Environment
Exploration in an unsafe environment is one of the major problems that can be seen as a basic block for many distributed mobile protocols. In such environment we consider that either the nodes (hosts) or the agents can p...
Applications of Some Topological Near Open Sets to Knowledge Discovery
In this paper, we use some topological near open sets to introduce the rough set concepts such as near open lower and near open upper approximations. Also, we study the concept of near open, rough set and some of their b...
An approach of inertia compensation based on electromagnetic induction in brake test
This paper briefly introduced the operational principle of the brake test bench, and points out the shortcomings when controlling the current of brake test, which means the reference measuring data is instantaneous. Aime...
Applying CRISPR-Cas9 Off-Target Editing on DNA based Steganography
Different from cryptography which encodes data into an incomprehensible format difficult to decrypt, steganography hides the trace of data and therefore minimizes attention to the hidden data. To hide data, a carrier bod...
