The system shall be able to detect deceased humans #16

Open boylesr opened 10 years ago

boylesr commented 10 years ago

Description: It is potentially important to identify deceased individuals in a first response scenario. Can show evidence of unknown hazard, mark for later investigation, recover bodies, etc. Allows first responders to prioritize and recover alive individuals first in dangerous, high-pressure situations.

Dependencies: N/A

Fit Criterion: As the team can not test this with a realistic scenario, a mannequin, or object that has it's overall temperature raised to the lower bound of human survival (25C) can be placed in a room. When the UAV enters said room, it is able to detect such a human and store/relay its coordinates.

Supporting Materials: N/A

While this issue is somewhat related to #11 , it deserves its own requirement because #11 deals with the mapping of human detection, while this deals with sensing humans of a specific type. It is a lower priority than #9 which deals with typical human temperatures.

Is it also the case that there should be a temperature below which the victim is likely deceased? If so, that can also be included.

There could be cases included for temperatures above and below that correspond to likely deceased.
