The problem with most high-rise rescues is that many times it’s too dangerous for even helicopters, much less emergency workers, to reach the victim(s). Introducing NET GUARD, an autonomous UAV drone system created by students in Guangzhou, China. It’s mainly designed for high-rise fire emergencies, and when a distress signal is received, it uses GPS to pinpoint the exact location of the fire before deploying.
The ability of NET GUARD to travel at high altitudes and catch a person in mid-air is made possible by four extremely durable propellers, while the net itself is made from a quadruple layer of polyurethane. This means the net is strong enough to hold the weight of an average adult and sensors keep track of the person as they jump into the net, safely positioning the drone to catch them.
