3. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the relief work includes at least one of confirmation of a state of the relief recipient, avoidance of a danger around the relief recipient, and evacuation support for the relief recipient.
4. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein the confirmation of the state of the relief recipient includes a bioinformation measurement executed simultaneously with the medical treatment, and wherein automatically performing the medical treatment on the relief recipient includes at least one of cardioversion and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
5. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein the avoidance of the danger around the relief recipient includes smoke removal and securing of air at the site.
6. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein the evacuation support for the relief recipient includes transport of the relief recipient from the site.
7. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 6 , further comprising a shock absorbing unit absorbing a landing impact of the unmanned aerial vehicle upon impacting a ground surface during the transport of the relief recipient from the site.
8. The unmanned aerial vehicle according to claim 7 , wherein the unmanned aerial vehicle is part of a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles, and wherein the plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles execute the relief work in cooperation with each other.
9. A relief method for performing relief work by using an unmanned aerial vehicle capable of performing autonomous flight, the relief method comprising:
a receiving step of receiving processing content from a user via a receiving unit of the unmanned aerial vehicle; and
a control step of controlling the execution of the relief work following the processing content by using a control unit of the unmanned aerial vehicle, wherein controlling the execution of the relief work comprises:
navigating the unmanned aerial vehicle to a site where a relief recipient is located;
measuring, by a bioinformation measuring instrument associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle, bioinformation of the relief recipient at the site;
determining that medical treatment of the relief recipient is required based on the bioinformation measured; and
performing, automatically by an emergency treatment device associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle, the medical treatment on the relief recipient without assistance from any person in proximity to the relief recipient at the site.
10. The relief method according to claim 9 , wherein the relief work includes at least one of confirmation of a state of the relief recipient, avoidance of a danger around the relief recipient, and evacuation support for the relief recipient.
11. The relief method according to claim 10 , wherein the confirmation of the state of the relief recipient includes a bioinformation measurement executed simultaneously with automatically performing the medical treatment, and wherein automatically performing the medical treatment on the relief recipient includes at least one of cardioversion and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
12. The relief method according to claim 10 , wherein the avoidance of the danger around the relief recipient includes smoke removal and securing of air at the site.
13. The relief method according to claim 10 , wherein the evacuation support for the relief recipient includes transport of the relief recipient from the site.
14. The relief method according to claim 13 , further comprising:
absorbing, via a shock absorbing unit associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle, a landing impact of the unmanned aerial vehicle upon impacting a ground surface during the transport of the relief recipient from the site.
15. The relief method according to claim 14 , wherein the unmanned aerial vehicle is part of a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles, and wherein the plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles execute the relief work in cooperation with each other.
16. An information terminal device capable of controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle that is capable of autonomous flight, the information terminal device comprising:
an input interface to send an input of relief support work from a user;
a transmitting and receiving unit in communication with the input interface, the transmitting and receiving unit to transmit the input of relief support work to the unmanned aerial vehicle; and
a control unit in communication with the input interface and the transmitting and receiving unit, the control unit to control the execution of the relief support work based on content of the input received by the receiving unit, wherein controlling the execution of the relief support work comprises:
navigating the unmanned aerial vehicle to a site where a relief recipient is located;
measuring, by a bioinformation measuring instrument associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle, bioinformation of the relief recipient at the site;
determining that medical treatment of the relief recipient is required based on the bioinformation measured; and
performing, automatically by an emergency treatment device associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle, the medical treatment on the relief recipient without assistance from any person in proximity to the relief recipient at the site.
17. The information terminal device according to claim 16 , wherein the relief support work includes at least one of confirmation of a state of the relief recipient, avoidance of a danger around the relief recipient, and evacuation support for the relief recipient.
18. The information terminal device according to claim 17 , wherein the confirmation of the state of the relief recipient includes a bioinformation measurement executed simultaneously with automatically performing the medical treatment, and wherein automatically performing the medical treatment on the relief recipient includes at least one of cardioversion and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
