Investigating the Use of Robotics in Disaster Response

Thesis Abstract

This project aims to investigate the use of robotics in disaster response scenarios. Natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and wildfires often pose significant challenges for human responders due to hazardous conditions and limited access. Robotics has the potential to assist in various aspects of disaster response, including search and rescue, damage assessment, and debris removal. This project will involve a comprehensive review of existing literature and case studies on the use of robotics in disaster response. The findings will be analyzed to identify the benefits, limitations, and future prospects of robotics in this field. The outcomes of this study will contribute to the development of more effective and efficient disaster response strategies.
