A rescue team coulduse such kind of digital assistants in order to have quick and safe information about the disaster. The proposed system is asmall size vehicle, with microcontroller based hardware and is wirelessly controlled. The operator has full control of thevehicle and is able to capture real time image of the accident place and various sensors measurements. %K Embedded Systems %K Search and Rescue %K wireless control %K microcontroller %K sensors %K activators %U http://www.jestr.org/downloads/volume3/fulltext332010.pdf
