| Research Abstract |
This research demonstrates the following three tasks. First, in order to understand the condition of actual indoor damage caused by a disaster, we have discovered a method to identify the conditions of real-time indoor damage as well as a method to judge the presence or absence of survivors in need of help by using the polymerization of a built-in accelerating sensor, depth sensor, and sound sensor typical to an average laptop computer. In addition, we have built a system that, once the indoor conditions are acquired, will share these conditions via multicast, thereby archiving the prompt comprehension of the overall conditions of damage in an earthquake-inflicted area. Finally, we have developed a smartphone rescue assistance application for individuals, such as firefighters, who partakes in life-saving missions.
