‘911$ RESCUE Drone’ is a rescuing drone that replaces and assists the rescuers. In an emergency, keeping the golden time is the key to saving a life. However, more than four rescuers are needed just to save one patient. In the process of rescue, they climb mountains with heavy burdens such as the stretcher, the emergency kit and other heavy equipment. In this situation, it is hard to keep the stretcher stable. Unstable stretcher exacerbates the condition of patient. It is not safe and efficient for both rescuer and patient. ‘911$ RESCUE Drone’ can save time, manpower and life by assisting the movement of the stretcher, and smartly following the rescuer. Rescuer should only wear the battery pack to reduce the weight of the drone and support enough energy. Then, it follows the rescuer. So,‘911$ RESCUE Drone’ can co-work with the rescuer. It has a ‘Maneuverable Twin Propeller’ that is adequately compact to go through narrow mountain passes.
