Autonomous people rescue system for vessels and shipwrecks
This invention refers to an innovative, original and convenient Autonomous System for Rescue operations, which works on the vessel, program controlled by a software and hardware platform rescuing people overboard in an autonomous manner. The System starts operating from the moment the person falls off the deck into the water. From the moment the wrist band on the passenger makes contact with the water, it sends out a radio frequency signal with two orders: to activate an alarm and to notify a robot to start rescue operation, and it brings it to the vessel with no intervention from people, i.e., in an intelligent and autonomous manner.
1. An autonomous rescue system for passengers of vessels comprising:
a signal transmitter wristband with water sensor;
a multi-band radio transmitter with antenna and batteries;
a GPS device providing geostationary position to the radio, and coordinates that is transmitted through the radio to a system processing the information from the triangulation with a first way and a second way to find a person wearing the transmitter wristband;
wherein the first way is by triangulation and the second way is geostationary position with GPS
wherein a robot is propelled into the water from a dock searching for the geostationary position and the triangulation of the transmitting radio, wherein once the person wearing the wristband is found, the robot magnetically adheres to such wristband, wherein at that point, a lifeline is activated and a buoy, which keep the robot floating and the robot sends a radio signal to the dock, which contains a winch and starts pulling the power cable from the robot, bringing back the person to the vessel.
2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the triangulation is performed by three receivers located one at a center of the vessel, at a front end of the vessel, and at the back end of the vessel.
3. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the wristband sends out a signal with coordinates and the system receives one of the signals with geostationary positioning and with the other signal triangulates the position of the vessel concerning the wristband on the person.
4. The system according to claim 1 , wherein there are docks containing robots from the system.
5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the vessel includes docks at a back end and the sides ends, each dock includes a robot operated by a wireless radio system receiving the orders from the triangulation and the geostationary position of the wristband on the person.
6. The system according to claim 1 , wherein in case of sinking or wreck, the system features sensors at the list level with horizontal and vertical orientation, which register the variations detecting the vessel is sinking.
7. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the system switches to the emergency system moving to the rescue rafts, wherein the system then operates at the rafts in the same way and following the same protocol as in the vessel, triangulating the position of the wristband as in the vessel, the rafts provide the coordinates, and robots within the rafts start rescue operations following the same protocol and rescue method as in the main vessel.
