QRC’s BlueFly is a state-of-the-art detection device designed to enhance search and rescue operations. BlueFly’s primary function is to detect the presence of Bluetooth Low energy and Wi-Fi signals, identify the devices present and localize the devices based on the signal strength relative to the position of the drone. This capability is particularly useful in locating individuals who may be carrying or wearing such devices, thereby expediting search and rescue efforts.

BlueFly is drone mountable capable of covering large search areas quickly, significantly outpacing on-foot search parties. By scanning from an aerial perspective, it can efficiently map out the presence of devices in real-time, providing a comprehensive overview of the search area. The data collected by the BlueFly is transmitted in real-time to Team Awareness Kit (TAK) capable Android devices, allowing teams on the ground to receive immediate updates and respond accordingly, enhancing their efficiency and effectiveness in the field and ultimately increase the likelihood of a successful rescue operation.
