About Us
Embry-Riddle Search and Rescue is a recently developed club with members from many different degree programs. We are an all-inclusive club and welcome all who have an interest or passion for search and rescue systems. No prior knowledge or experience is required. Our goal is to develop a better understanding of how UAV systems can aid in search and rescue applications. We will be planning, designing, building, and testing a UAV system capable of locating distressed persons and coordinating responses to ground teams. Our UAV will be easily deployable and have the ability to identify a person by thermal signature, evaluate their physical status and environment, and communicate to a ground team in real-time in order to locate a victim and provide assistance.
