The "Graz Griffins" is one of only 10 student teams worldwide in the finals of a competition for search and rescue UAVs. The teams will compete for 1st place and the 100,000 dollar prize money at the end of August. Photographic material available for download at the end of the text. The potential for drone applications goes far beyond taking bird's'eye view snap-shots or delivering parcels: Drones can also be life savers in search and rescue missions and a major asset in providing exact data in the precise localisation of injured persons or danger sources. Every year, the DJI Developer Challenge motivates numerous student and university teams from around the world to submit their ideas and development concepts for UAVs. The focus this year is on search and rescue aircraft. The prize money is 100,000 dollars.
