Oyibo and scam

That thing fit rush pregnant woman wey want born to hospital?

Something wey na hand them dey carry am for
Na so them dey use name of something scam us like say na big thing

That thing is just a drone, nothing ambulance there




MODIFIED
Defenders of the Ambulance, I meant its not a new tech, Amazon has similar thing for delivery, even fast food is being delivered with drones, what do we call such? Too much ambiguity in the word 'ambulance'

First Aid Drone

Bro, stop reading only the headline. The drone is not to airlift any victim, it is to get emergency equipment to the victim in one minute.

boss1310:
if you start this in Africa somebody will call for help and immediately he sees the drone the one lying on the ground will stand and they will decapitate and steal the drone.
our mentality tire me I swear

Hale u, that's naija for u

stevemarkdangot:

What are you doing to advance technology within your capacity? All we do is to complaim

One man cannot build a nation! For Africa to catch we all need to build it together! Drop the mentality of What has he built but What can we build

Harryfrosh:
Wao.... Technology keeps advancing... I really wonder what we do wrong in this region called Africa...

We've done nothing wrong,we just don't believe in ourselves.
With the right frame of mind and support from our government,we can do better.

Great idea. I run a drone company providing services in construction, agriculture and security and know the potential of this technology. Only thing I am concerned about is battery limitation. This is a hexacopter and the best you can find gets about 45 minutes on a set; then this has to also power a defibrillator from that same battery and would probably need a transformer to generate the 200-1000 volts needed. It may be able to fly to the scene and provide help but won’t be able to respond to another or even take off again but it is a really good idea... will we buy one Let’s see

You think they are gonna use the same battery you use in your own company? Is there no chance where they might have develop a high end battery that is adequate enough to run the whole process over and over again without shutting down? Have you watch the full documentary of this drone ambulance?

There is no high end battery at this time... LiPo is the current technology. You also have a weight consideration; anything more “high tech” may have to be heavier and you don’t want more weight as that takes energy to carry.

Horus:


A solution can be to add a second battery, that can be swapped out for fast turn around time. The hexacopter or drone will likely fly for longer

That is if it has enough energy to make the return flight home. I have an Aerial Robotics XR6 hexacopter carrying a Sony Alpha 6000 camera. It uses two 3700 MAh 6S batteries and I can only squeeze out 12 minutes per flight. This explains why we moved to fixed wing technology. I visited Zürich on Friday to see a demo on the Wingtra One. You get much more out of a fixed wing but you lose maneuverability.

From the video, this ambulance drone have been tested and proven adequate. If not, it won't be made public. This isn't a prototype, but the real deal. So, what kind of battery are they using since there's no battery that can undergo such function without draining down? Sorry for the too many questions. Just curious to hear from someone who's already in the field.

Nice.

It’s a concept video

The issue of energy have been a lifelong battle in the tech world. Nanotechnology is yet to achieve its breakthrough due to this same hurdle. I pray a solution is found.

We still dey battle farmers and herders crisis like this is the 19th century. This country eh. We need to change our crop if leaders. The present leaders have absolutely nothing to offer

We are filled with hate! And hate never wins.....spending valuable time binding and casting rather than reasoning.
the journey long!

this is a first aid kit/drone....cant evacuate you to a medical facility in case of emergency.

Corruption and extrajudicial killing

In Rwanda, His Drones Are Saving Lives

One of the world's first drone delivery services is all the way in rural Rwanda, where 27 year-old Abdoul Salam Nizeyimana earns a living by launching and retrieving self-flying planes. Nizeyimana was drawn to not only the technology of his employer Zipline but also its mission: to deliver blood to remote hospitals, helping doctors save their patients' lives. Like many in Rwanda, Nizeyimana survived a harrowing tragedy
to get to where he is today

let's get rid of the old bloods.

old blood? What has the new blood produced?

Do we have a fleet of working ambulances in Nigeria?

Almost one million people suffer from heart attack year and only about 8% of those people actually survive it. The main reason the death toll is so high is mostly because of delay in response of medical services and ambulance which takes long time to respond due to traffic or bad road etc. In Africa the ambulance can even take more than 5 hours to arrive it’s destination or may not even arrive at all. Most time, they have to get the patients to the hospital themselves. All these problems are what made a young Dutch student to design this ambulance drone which is a robot that is capable of getting – e.g. a defibrillator – to a patient within a 12 square kilometre (4.6 square miles) radius within just one minute, increasing the chance of survival from 8% to 80% and save lives of thousands.



With this brilliant concept, everyone needing urgent medical attention (not only heart attack) will benefit from faster response times and will also increase chances of survival. As soon as the emergency line is called, the operator sends out the camera fitted flying robot (drone) which flies at lightening speed to the address of the victim.



Once it gets there, an operator like a paramedic, can watch, talk and instruct those helping the victim – or the victim themselves – by using an on-board phone and camera connected to a control room via a livestream webcam. The drone contains everything you need to take care of the emergency at the moment including an integrated defibrillator before you’re able to get to the doctor. It’s basically a flying hospital !



The name of the designer is Alec Momont, the name of his project is TU Delft (ambulance drone). According to him, his vision is to create a wide network of drones capable of saving lives and increasing survival chances from 8% to 80%. These drone which can travel with speed of up to 100KM/HR are not affected by traffic jam or bad road network. It can arrive it’s destination in just one minute. The drone has attracted the interest of emergency services in major cities like Amsterdam. Furthermore, high unemployment rates could be reduced by using skilled young gamers as drone operators.

What is all this rubbish in the world - instead of saying first aid kit drone - they say ambulance how can an illiterate farmer in borno, know what to do with this rubbish?

Wow at bolded. Nice initiative, contrary to what some people believe about technology that it will lead to loss of jobs, it also create jobs.
