This is forward-looking competition seeks to inspire a cross-section of the population to provide relevant input on issues dealing with situational awareness in emergency situations, touching on the very core of the ResponDrone project. As such it will be split into three categories:
- School children
- Amateur groups
- Startups or specialized companies
The respective groups will be assigned simple, medium, and complex tasks to solve, accordingly. Using UAVs, the groups will be asked to complete the following tasks:
- Find the source of a fire
- Find the injured
- Deliver the survival package while extinguishing the fire with liquid substances
They can also propose solutions not listed here, which will be reviewed by the completion’s management committee, and possibly included in the overall list of problem scenarios if deemed relevant. At the end of the application phase, participants will be provided with a description of the specific tasks to be accomplished.
