Search And Rescue of humans and animals trapped in Fire using YOLO

In the event of a fire, the main concern of first responders and firefighters is to rescue people trapped in the burning area. We suggest a way to identify people trapped in tropical areas, in a way that will ensure the safety of firefighters and speed up the rescue process. The proposed method suggests the use of Infrared (IR) cameras to capture hot images in a burning environment as they may not be distorted by smoke. Deep learning technique using CNN and YOLO would be applied on thermal images to detect humans and animals in smoke and fire situations.
