Abstract

Investigation of Kobe earthquake revealed that search and surveillance of victims is one of the most important processes of urban search and rescue (USAR) in disasters. The development of technologies to effectively support the search process by a portable multi-degree-of-freedom (d.o.f) motion platform is outlined.
