High-Level Project Summary
SKY MEDICAL ASSISTANCE RESCUE DRONE - SMARD is a rescue operations drone. The development of SMARD is merely to be an alternative to ambulance and paramedic officers. Due to a delay in an ambulance to reach the accident place at the right time due to traffic congestion, this SMARD is being developed. Even though the public knows the existence of ambulances on the road but due to unavoidable situations, the ambulance was caught in traffic congestion. This SMARD came with AI GLASSES which would be able to wear by bystanders. This SMARD will land at the accident place and bystanders will commence hearing the instructions from the speaker attached to the drone. First-person perspective mode

Detailed Project Description
SKY MEDICAL ASSISTANCE RESCUE DRONE - SMARD is a rescue operations drone. The development of SMARD is merely to be an alternative to ambulance and paramedic officers. Due to a delay in an ambulance to reach the accident place at the right time due to traffic congestion. this SMARD is being developed. Even though the public knows the existence of ambulances on the road but due to unavoidable situations, the ambulance was caught in traffic congestion. With SMARD, the road accident victim could be assisted before an actual paramedic or other agencies arrive.
This SMARD came with Artificial Intelligence GLASSES which would be able to wear by bystanders. This SMARD will land at the accident place and bystanders will commence hearing the instructions from the speaker attached to the drone. The first-person perspective mode will be activated. Bystander intervention is critical for lifesaving action where he or she requires guidance remotely (medical paramedic and emergency response team).
SMARD is equipped with, Medical Kit, Artificial Intelligence Glass, Surveillance Camera, Audio Speaker, Communication Port, and Data Analytics Hub. With these integrated tools with SMARD, the bystanders will have guided and structured intervention according to the situation faced by the victim and bystander.
With SMARD implementation, the viability of deploying drones is to improve medical assistance rescue response globally. Added to this, this system could establish clinical efficacy and commercial benefit for the public and organization.
SMARD will be comprised of AI technology Drones which frequently include artificial intelligence, automating some or all functions. The use of AI enables drone suppliers to gather and utilize visual and situational data using data from sensors linked to the drone and space data. SMARD will be incorporated neural networks, where machine learning algorithms apply to detect and accurately categorize objects in a wide range of scenarios. This is accomplished by feeding specifically designated photos into the algorithm. This capability improves safety over approaches like as exclusively GPS-led navigation with high accuracy data from space, and it is a necessary step toward permitting BVLOS (beyond visual line of sight) drone operations.
SMARD is developed based on an approach that combines science, technology, engineering, the arts, and math (STEAM)..
Science - A drone is generally a flying machine that may be remotely controlled or fly autonomously by employing software-controlled flight plans in its embedded systems, which work in tandem with onboard sensors and a global positioning system (GPS).
Technology - Drone technology operates in collaboration with GPS and onboard sensors. Many drones now have improved capabilities that make them incredibly robust and intelligent, expanding their range of use.
Engineering - Drone engineering uses several engineering disciplines such as aeronautical, electronics and electrical, mechanical, and robotics engineering.
Art - The first thing to consider about art in drone application is its tremendous appeal and scenic situation. the flight pattern involves applying the art mind whereby, the operator can plan the flight plan correctly.
Math - Maths application demonstrated that autonomous systems can experience quite well without optical sensors. Based on various calculations the machine can accurately take off and accomplish its mission.
Space Agency Data
Invent tomorrow’s driving with NAVISP . The way we travel is changing quickly, with a trend toward increasingly autonomous cars and better road infrastructure. ESA's NAVISP program, in collaboration with new partner ERTICO-ITS, the organization for intelligent transport systems in Europe, invites suggestions from European industry, institutions, and research institutes to support this trend by supplying "positioning, navigation, and timing" (PNT) information to let vehicles know precisely where and when they are as they drive. With this information, PNT data can be fed to the DRONE and synchronize with the accident place.
Hackathon Journey
This is my 1st attempt and I am in the pitching stage. During this challenging development, I was able to learn much unknown knowledge in regard to the space and drone industry. Due to observation of many drivers' and passengers' death, I have decided to introduce SMARD to be an alternative to ambulance and paramedic officers. I am only using a research approach to gather information and carried out a literature review. Since I am doing it alone, few setbacks and challenges exist such as less time to develop the prototype. I planned to develop the prototype system very soon and to decided to commercialize it. I would like to thank my father as he is always guiding me to carry out a deep research in regard to medical, space, and drones. In order for me to further develop prototypes, my fundamentals and readiness in areas of medical, space, and drones are very much essential.
