Search and rescue operations after a major disaster are often hindered by inaccessibility to the affected area due to damaged infrastructure. However; this approach can lead to oversight due to the altitude and limited field of view. Therefore; a real-time human detection system using a fixed-wing quadcopter UAV equipped with Internet of Things devices for Mobile-Edge Computing is proposed. An onboard Raspberry Pi companion computer controls the UAV and streams aerial imagery from the camera attached to offload human detection computation tasks to a computing server at the edge using 4G cellular network technology. The computing server utilises YOLOv3 deep neural network trained on the VisDrone and SARD data sets to detect humans. The detection results are transmitted to the Ground Control Station to locate the victim’s position. Offloading heavy computation from the UAV to the cloud improves power efficiency and precision while maintaining real-time capabilities with accuracy of 78.72%.
