Alive Human Detection in War Fields and Earthquakes using PIR Sensor and Monitoring the Heartbeat of the Victims

During war fields and natural disasters like earthquakes, rescue crews struggle to find victims due to people being buried under debris, stuck in inaccessible locations, or unseen by rescue helicopters. In addition, even after locating the victims, the rescue team lacks information regarding their health. The project’s objective is to identify answers for such circumstances. It comprises a robot equipped with sensors that identify victims and then determine their heartbeat rate. The human body emits infrared waves that are detected by a Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor, which detects the living human body. After detecting a human, the robot attempts to determine the victim’s health status by monitoring the heartbeat rate. Additionally, the prototype is linked to Bluetooth, which transmits all captured data to the Mobile Application. The rescue teams analyze the received data to make further decisions. The project provides an efficient solution to problems encountered in war zones and natural disasters such as earthquakes, along with information regarding the victim’s health status. In addition to performing activities such as object detection in the path using ultrasonic sensors, the robot is capable of detecting alive humans using sensors.
