Abstract
A method at a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), and a UAV, adapted therefore, is adapted for enabling assisting in a rescue mission, where the method comprise: initiating a first localization of at least one body or object; initiating an analysis, for determining, at least partly based on the first localization of the at least one body or object, a need for activities, and initiating the determined activities, comprising applying floatable foam to an area on or in close proximity to the at least one body or object, while applying, to the floatable foam, a recognizable means capable of assisting in a second localization of the at least one body or object.

A method at an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for assisting in a rescue mission, the method comprising:
- initiating a first localization of at least one body or object;
- initiating an analysis, for determining, at least partly based on the first localization of the at least one body or object, a need for activities;
- and
- initiating the activities based on the determined need for the activities, comprising applying an adhesive floatable foam to an area on or in close proximity to the at least one body or object, while embedding, into the adhesive floatable foam, an active recognizable device capable of assisting in a second localization of the at least one body or object.
An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for assisting in a rescue mission, the UAV comprising processing circuitry and a memory, storing instructions which, when executed by the processing circuitry cause the UAV to perform operations comprising:
- initiating a first localization of at least one body or object;
- initiating an analysis, for determining, at least partly based on the localization of the at least one body or object, a need for activities;
- and
- initiating the activities based on the determined need for the activities, comprising applying an adhesive floatable foam to an area on or in close proximity of the at least one body or object, while embedding, into the adhesive floatable foam, an active recognizable device, capable of assisting in a second localization of the at least one body or object.
An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for assisting in a rescue mission, the UAV comprising:
- a localization unit for initiating a first localization of at least one body or object;
- an analyzing unit for initiating an analysis, for determining a need for activities, at least partly based on the first localization of the at least one body or object, and
- an initiating unit for initiating the activities based on the determined need for the activities, comprising applying, by a first releasing unit, an adhesive floatable foam to an area on or in close proximity to the at least one body or object, while embedding, into the adhesive floatable foam, by a second releasing unit, an active recognizable device, capable of assisting in a second localization of the at least one body or object.
A system comprising:
- an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV);
- an adhesive floatable foam;
- an active recognizable device;
- a capturing unit for initiating a first localization of at least one body or object;
- an analyzing unit for initiating an analysis, for determining a need for activities, at least partly based on the first localization of the at least one body or object;
- and
- an initiating unit for initiating the activities based on the determined need for the activities, comprising applying, via a first releasing unit, the adhesive floatable foam to an area on or in close proximity of the at least one body or object, while embedding, via a second releasing unit, into the adhesive floatable foam, the active recognizable device, capable of assisting in a second localization of the at least one body or object.
