the game and an opening session of the cost. europe also one the afternoon for both session and lead lead 6 and a half to one and a half after day one. that's you all up to date up next shift living in the digital age looks at how ai, drones and robots can help after natural disasters. i'm out of him all. thanks for joining in. take care. the practices and stereotypes still shape the west. the use of africa. how do we change this? adapt filmmaking leads with companies creations. together they explode the

contradictory nature of the 0 centric acid teenage girl. and how these police can be changed. the start filming us. plea from the perspectives. stuff october 20th us. i'm d w the what kind of your options? both quakes forest fires with natural disasters, put human lives at stake. every 2nd counts, artificial intelligence, drones, and robots can by valuable time and rescue operations. how technology can help mitigate natural disasters. that's all a topic on the natural disasters cause in all this damage worldwide, and claim countless lives. but protecting our sales from them can be tricky. even

today is difficult to accurately predict volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. fortunately for us, some animal species have finally to and said insults and will even exhibit certain behaviors before catastrophes. we visit the scientists investigating how animals can be used as early warning systems begin this one ellis. this we believe the internet of animals has the potential to become an early warning system in the future on owns and loans and steam b. as many animals have better sense has been humans, some species can smell better, others can hear better, and some can even sense danger before it shows it's face. it's been documented that before natural disasters heard animals become agitated for change, their behavior to vice be in by dot to inbound to andre. for example, in many other parts of the world, it said that animals ran away from big. so non, these are essentially warned earthquakes. these are the hit and for the,

the beam give on. it's hard to confirm, but we're seeing more and more evidence that something like that that play. yeah, he buys it us. it was from cindy income. in some cases, animal started behaving differently many hours prior to a natural disaster. behavioral biologist, martin zukowski and his team are exploring the so called $0.06 as part of the icarus project, the scientist equip animals with transmitters. they couldn't get some yes ma'am. uh. were you able to observe animals around the clock, wherever they are, just be doin? this means that for the 1st time, we can receive continuous information about them, which is then fed into the internet of animals. yeah. else is i'm inside it. it works by giving them little electronic devices, if i don't recall them. wearables provide life even getting in and this wearables for wildlife. the wearables sensors send information in real time by a cell phone network or satellite. and can even exchange it directly effectively

from animal to animal. the data is then analyzed using artificial intelligence. as shown is, these are one take of kinetic an ear tag on iran authorize. the beauty is that the air tech does and just record data like the something you to worry about. so the animal, but it also interprets the data into the games. all that is we have artificial intelligence and the air tech that we train before has all of that allows the animals to effectively communicate with us on dtn. in recent times, however, the project has been under a normal strain. the signals for the icarus project were transmitted in part by the international space station in collaboration with russian partners after rushes invasion into cream last year. the cooperation stopped. but there's something new in the pipeline that mixes, yeah, annoyance at the launch will launch on your satellite next year and then have a much better system which we control ourselves indicated in 10 years. and i believe we won't just be consulting the weather forecast, but the animal forecast report from life on earth itself. yeah,

there are showing that animals as early warning systems. it's an intriguing approach. and really anything that can reduce damage or support rescue teams is worth exploring. after the earthquakes in turkey and syria, aid workers and sniff adults with 1st on the scene, high tech equipment didn't play as big of a role. why? well, experts say 2 things i need it well trained personal on the ground to operate the equipment and more companies put using such tech. in the 1st place, several companies from israel banded together for a rescue mission. in turkey, they sent experts and high tech equipment to assist search teams. the startup expand, for example, makes inspection roles which fly into buildings through small openings. before we even managed to rescue a woman a few days off of the quake. a tech like this is gaining traction. check it out. this drone can deploy small robots directly on the scene of an accident. so you're

a p and japanese cursor project integrates various devices and a network. theme is to make rescue missions run as smoothly as possible. the soft minute drive to underground robotic finder or smart a scene here, and action is most is this kind of robot here that is equipped with different kind of where else, like would you be coming to us 2 pieces. we have somebody come over us and we also have lights on so that we can take those well into a collapse building and search for victims. nowadays, there are even sensors that can detect survivors based on smells in the future. teams of these semi autonomous robots could go deep into collapse buildings and search for people. drones up above can offer support to rescue teams down on the ground. somewhere equipped a 3 d mapping technology. others use radar sensors to locate survivors under rubble and air drops merced exactly where they're needed. another

type of ground can establish an autonomous radio network. this allows data to be transmitted even when communication infrastructure is destroyed or overloaded. the system is designed with post disaster victims and response workers in mind. the new technology, we are aiming to increase the safety of 1st responders providing remote access to the work site to remote, the working conditions. and secondly, with the technology we are improving the, the, the speed of detecting victim. it may be years though before this network of robots and drones is fully operational. this rescue robots from china is also still in development. it's quite nimble and can even climb stairs. in a few sure it's sensors can provide information about the scene of an accident and identify potential hazards like gas leap. to do this,

it's equipped with the laser scanner thermal camera and the gas sensor. this make like robots from japan can navigate through rebels, wrinkled through pipes, and even climb ladders, thanks to its 36 flexible joints. so high speaking i took little 1st of all, these robots are used to enter places that are inaccessible. the humans are places where there's an uncertainty, if it's safe to enter, all the robots can help to measure oxygen concentration or c o 2 levels, for example. and that the you can evaluate whether you can send in a rescue team, see what's in order with its agile inflexible frames. the snake robot doesn't get stuck as easily as other robots. to box movements are guided the controllers and the boss equipped with a camera on sensors. like other rescue robots, it's future aim is to minimize risks for rescue workers and aid them in finding survivors when the clock is ticking. these robots perform well in controlled settings, but conditions and disaster areas, uh,

unpredictable. imagine what would happen if the internet and power supply clips. it might be some time before robot dogs can compete with the real deal, says professor costing bands. he's an expert on rescue robots to voice mail to this one version roboto. you would need several robotic dogs working in tandem to come to a disaster side or otherwise time would quickly run out of one of those systems today are still very, very slow. i'm so, so that's a drawback of robotic dogs. especially when compared to an actual dog that could run across a field of debris relatively quickly. now let's look for the other kind of income button, and we're still a long way from replacing our search dots knows in the sense of smell with sensor technology. for example, it's been that way, nature is a tough act to follow and we won't be on that level any time soon. how do you not to what ones? state. but on the other hand, that's because we've developed other sensors that don't occur in nature at all on the, on the, on the list. and so what do you not put before called?

so the advantage is that robotic dogs can be equipped with essentially any sensor. imagine level and transmit data in real time. of course, it will be better to prevent buildings from collapsing at all. luckily, digital technology can help in that regards to these rooftop devices. balance out type ration. detect is developed by the italian started up either. have you sliding weights or controlled by algorithms during an earthquake sensors on the walls provide data and the buildings migration. and external control system calculates how much the sliding weight on the roof must move. to counteract the vibrations there by minimizing damage to the building. on like earthquakes, which can cause major damage in the blink of an eye. forest fires develop more slowly, but a small smouldering fire can grow into something uncontrollable here. timing is key

specialist sensors and a i be coming crucial when it comes to bottling forrest buyers every 2nd counts. but buyers are not always discovered and reported right away with the right technologies that time lag can be fixed. a number of companies have begun using artificial intelligence that analyze the satellite, images and sensors on the ground, checking for smoke or shift and thermal improvement data that could indicate a fire. and if one is detected, 1st responders receive a notification. we see learning. we can actually teach the computers to identify on actual flame, or we can also teach that technology to determine if it's easy thermal imagery, whether it's a stationary lame, perhaps a power station compared to a moving plane from all science. so in that sense of the terms of warranty, automated detection is really important. the 1st stages of

a forest fire are always easy to spot. sensors like these can help, in the case of a smouldering fire, smoke can remain trapped under the forest, cannot be undetectable by satellite. but gases are measurable in german start up, dry eyed has developed the system which detects gas build up in the early stages of a fire. the integrated a i can even distinguish fire gases from car exhaust. for example, fire departments are done informed by an independent radio network. it can quickly find the source of the fire using gps before it spreads, the wildfires are hard to control. depending on the wind, spires course can suddenly change direction or spread much faster. smart fire maps predict to a firewall act over the next hours. they use deep learning software and factor in the weather. dryness of restitution test fires, satellite and ground sensor data. the,

there's also software that simulates the spread of wildfires to help firefighters decide where to concentrate their efforts and planning evacuations as data get some more precise technology will undoubtedly self a bigger role in manage exhaustive people's lives. homes and the environment depend on that. high tech solutions can help rescue workers who put their health and lives on the line. i hope that robots and goals will soon take over the most dangerous aspects of these jobs, even when it's not strictly profitable for companies. what do you think should taxpayer money fund the development of production of rescue tech? tell us, what do you think by the the

new wizard? advancing new. hi, my name is something that you meet. the gentleman tells us about the differences and surprising similarities between germany under the home country india in real quick. why? that's the next on d, w and david that office has access to and i've, since i've been i'm, i'll have them that i should be there. so i'm try to, i'm trying to deal with winning soprano on elena a, but it is august on tiny house concepts for conversation cooking that is kind of cool music the

1st few minutes on d w. we are all set and we're watching closely. we all seem to bring use a story behind the news. we're rolling about unbiased information for 3 months. the unix payments october 1st is still in full swing, but how much of it is possible on a small budget? hitting all the knows the london and base shinagle orchestra shows how diverse a classical ensemble can be an suite 3. we look at the secret to those of worldly colored french maxwell. oh, listen more, coming up on your own mac.
