  It is very important to locate survivors from collapsed buildings so that
rescue operations can be arranged. Many lives are lost due to lack of competent
systems to detect people in these collapsed buildings at the right time. So
here we have designed a hand gesture controlled robot which is capable of
detecting humans under these collapsed building parts. The proposed work can be
used to access specific locations that are not humanly possible, and detect
those humans trapped under the rubble of collapsed buildings. This information
is then used to notify the rescue team to take adequate measures and initiate
rescue operations accordingly.
