With the rising prevalence of cardiovascular and respiratory disorders and an aging global population, healthcare systems face increasing pressure to adopt efficient, non-contact vital sign monitoring (NCVSM) solutions. This study…
Non-contact technology for monitoring multiple people's vital signs, such as respiration and heartbeat, has been investigated in recent years due to the rising cardiopulmonary morbidity, the risk of transmitting diseases, and the heavy…
Robotic search and rescue (SAR) supports response teams by accelerating disaster assessment and by keeping operators away from hazardous environments. In the event of a chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) disaster, robots…
Two challenges for rescue robots are to detect human beings and to have an accurate positioning system. In indoor positioning, GPS receivers cannot be used due to the reflections or attenuation caused by obstacles. To detect human beings,…
The paper centres on an assessment of the modelling approaches for the processing of signals in CW and FMCW radar-based systems for the detection of vital signs. It is shown that the use of the widely adopted phase extraction method, which…
The speed of response by search and rescue teams at sea is of vital importance, as survival may depend on it. Recent technological advancements have led to the development of more efficient systems for locating individuals involved in a…
During the evacuation of a building, the rapid and accurate tracking of human evacuees can be used by a guide robot to increase the effectiveness of the evacuation [1],[2]. This paper introduces a near real-time human position tracking…
Drones will play an essential role in human-machine teaming in future search and rescue (SAR) missions. We present a first prototype that finds people fully autonomously in densely occluded forests. In the course of 17 field experiments…
Reliable localization of people is fundamental for service and social robots that must operate in close interaction with humans. State-of-the-art human detectors often rely on RGB-D cameras or costly 3D LiDARs. However, most commercial…
Non-contact vital sign detection is a required application nowadays in many fields as patient monitoring and static human detection. Within the last decade, radar has been introduced as a smart and convenient sensor for non-contact…
Most smart systems such as smart home and smart health response to human's locations and activities. However, traditional solutions are either require wearable sensors or lead to leaking privacy. This work proposes an ambient radar solution…
Reliable people detection is crucial for the safe autonomy of mobile robots and heavy vehicles, both on roads and in industrial settings like mining and construction. However, common sensors like cameras or lidars are prone to failure in…
Recent research has examined the possibility of using robots to guide evacuees to safe exits during emergencies. Yet, there are many factors that can impact a person's decision to follow a robot. Being able to model how an evacuee follows…
Autonomous or teleoperated robots have been playing increasingly important roles in civil applications in recent years. Across the different civil domains where robots can support human operators, one of the areas where they can have more…
Recent advancements in non-invasive health monitoring technologies underscore the potential of mm-Wave Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar in real-time vital sign detection. This paper introduces a novel dataset, the first of…
Robots will bring search and rescue (SaR) in disaster response to another level, in case they can autonomously take over dangerous SaR tasks from humans. A main challenge for autonomous SaR robots is to safely navigate in cluttered…
This study proposes a method for simulating signals received by frequency-modulated continuous-wave radar during respiratory monitoring, using human body geometry and displacement data acquired via a depth camera. Unlike previous studies…
Detecting humans is a key skill for mobile robots and intelligent vehicles in a large variety of applications. While the problem is well studied for certain sensory modalities such as image data, few works exist that address this detection…
Current robot platforms are being employed to collaborate with humans in a wide range of domestic and industrial tasks. These environments require autonomous systems that are able to classify and communicate anomalous situations such as…
Quasi-static human activities such as lying, standing or sitting produce very low Doppler shifts and highly spread radar signatures, making them difficult to detect with conventional constant-false-alarm rate (CFAR) detectors tuned for…
