Towards an Autonomous UAV-based System to Assist Search and Rescue Operations in Man Overboard Incidents

Man overboard (MOB) incidents in open sea travel are a risk for the shipping industry. In this work we aim to design an autonomous system in charge of planning and executing a search for a person in water (PIW), victim of MOB. The proposed solution consists of an autonomous UAV that initiates a SAR...
