Moscow Technological Institute scientists showcased what could be the future of accessible medicine, a drone equipped with a defibrillator, testing the aircraft in the Russian capital on Friday.
The drone was designed to provide immediate assistance to people who have suffered heart attacks. In this case,” according to head of the institute’s aerospace lab, Denis Yefremov, “its crucially important to quickly reach the injured, if you don’t do this in 5-10 minutes, maybe, it would be useless.”
He added that that the drone is easily operated, meaning that those without a medical education can use the device, explaining that the “defibrillator helps with voice hints which tells you what to do, and shows colour images on the screen”.
The drone’s maximum speed is 50 km/h, its maximum flying distance is 25 km, and it can be operated for 30 minutes without charging. The device also has a special box to carry medicine to the site of the incident.
