This video demonstrates how AI-enabled water rescue drones support the German Life Saving Association (DLRG) in locating missing people and improving response times in critical situations.
In challenging environments, manual search operations require significant time and resources. The drone system covers large areas efficiently, using AI-based imaging to detect people in distress and stream real-time data to ground control.
Powered by NXP technology, the system integrates flight control, image processing, connectivity and mission management into a single platform that supports fast, informed and coordinated rescue operations.
