A swarm of simulated drones splits up a search area and works together to find missing hikers.

This tool is being built. It will run right here, in your browser.

How it works

Method

Each drone updates a shared probability map of where people might be and picks its next move to cover the most likely ground.

Data

Simulated terrain and hiker behaviour, with public elevation data for real landscapes.

Model

Bayesian search maps with decentralized task allocation and collision avoidance.

Build

Simulation in the browser with adjustable swarm size, battery and sensor range.
