Researchers in Germany have developed a mobile radar device that can search hectare-sized areas quickly and thoroughly. The new technology combines greater mobility with accurate detection of vital signs. They have developed an algorithm designed to detect irregular heartbeats. The system detects vital signs close to the stationary radar system, successfully putting it to the test at distances of up to 15 meters. In about two years they expect to transition the technology to UAV based applications to reliably detect buried casualties…read more.
