Searchwing – Mit Drohnen Leben retten

Refugees are dying in the Mediterranean Sea. Thousands of them.
We are building fixed wing drones, autonomously searching for refugee-vessels in a radius of 50km around a base-ship.
The association „Seawatch e.V.“ has bought two well equipped Ships to help and rescue those people. But to help them we first have to find them.

CCC-Berlin and „Sea Watch e.V.“ are working together to use high tech for humanitarian projects.
In this talk we will explain the situation in the Mediterranean Sea and show possibilities to help refugees in mortal danger with high tech.
We will present a smartphone app for organising the multidimensional chaos in the Mediterranean Sea and we explain in depth, how the development of the drones is proceeding, what already works and which challenges are still waiting.
