Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been shown to effectively support search and rescue (SAR) operations, usually through manual control of each UAV. Research has started to move towards multi-drone systems with increasing levels of autonomy to support faster and more challenging SAR operations. However, how such a system should be implemented into the SAR procedures remains an open challenge. We seek to thoroughly understand the issues that arise with drone usage in SAR and how semi-autonomous multi-drone systems can help alleviate those. We conducted a pilot study with emergency services SAR pilots and our multi-drone control prototype. Initial findings have given insights into useful features and potential pitfalls in designing a multi-drone system. The results inform our continued work toward more refined prototypes that will serve as a platform for search and rescue operations.
