Abstract
This paper investigates the problem of improving robustness of autonomous victim search in urban search and rescue (USAR) by using sound and gas measurements. Sound measurements are collected to detect voices of victims. Gas measurements are taken to detect breathing of living trapped persons. In addition, the gas measurements are used to detect dangerous gas concentration for human rescuers. We present a hardware and software implementation of the sound and gas based life sign detection system, and fist evaluation results of the properties and the quality of the detections. The system is implemented using the Robot Operating System (ROS) and is mounted on our rescue robot for the RoboCup Rescue competition.
