welcome 2 ma' blog.... -Sujit Kumar Nath: DRDO develops “Sanjeevani”- A Technology to detect life trapped under debris


Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) has developed a special technology called Acoustic Life Detector or ‘Sanjeevani’ to detect human beings trapped under the debris of buildings after earth quakes or land slides.

How it works
The Acoustic Life Detector uses highly sensitive acoustic sensors and audio signals to listen to the low frequency sounds from below the debris.The acoustic sensors are designed to detect a range of low frequency signals like hitting, tapping, scratching or moaning sounds made by the victims trapped in the rubble of houses and other structures.
Applications
The Life Detector can detect human lives to the depth of six to eight metres below the debris and would be provided to disaster management teams, earth quake response forces and police and fire services department, landslide prone areas.
 
We already have a device to detect life under avalanches in service,developed by DRDO.
 
This will be a real "SANJEEVANI" for people under debris.

KUDOS DRDO!!!! You made every Indian Proud.

We should give it to Palastheians . They need such technology badly now .
 
Very old news. Is commercially available for 4 years now.

Sanjeevani Acoustic Life Detector
This has got wide market, national and international. This product was commercially launched by Sri A. K. Antony, Hon’ble Defence Minister on 24-11-2008.

Also, several counterparts are available in west so no breakthrough. Would be great if a compact, military equivalent is made to detect presence beyond walls etc.
